Question for the techie geeks. Why is there a link from the wordpress page to the forum but no link from the forum to the wordpress page :-\.

I've noticed this too. The link at the top of the forum directs to the forum home page. It would be better if it went to the wordpress site like the old days. Everything was better in the old days  :P

Another minor issue; The favicon is gone and my bookmarks to the forum just don't look right  :( Pedantic? I know!.

I did prefer the old look as this one is a bit plain with the simple machine logo on the top right :(.

Might be nice to have the Facebook and Twitter pages linked on the Wordpress main page too (or did I miss them  :-\)

I think your right - it would be nice to link from the homepage to the facebook and twitter.

I dont tihnk thats a biggy.

The forum is on a 'stock' theme which is easiest when it comes to maintenance / security patching etc.

There is a Twitter feed at the bottom, but I'll try & get the direct links added later.

I'm sure we can add same to forum (don't have access myself), to allow a common-ish theme & message.

How does that look, is it working OK?

Top right, a bit restricted on where/how it looks with this theme.

Does it appear when you refresh?
What platform are you viewing it on?

(Seems to be fine on iOS iPhone & iPad, Firefox on PC)

I'll look into why it doesn't come up first time.

Looks fab Peter, sizing is fine I think, nice and visible - well done on the quick turn around  ;)

The logos point to the 'follow' pages, so the facebook and twitter landing pages aren't visible to those without Facebook/Twitter accounts. Just an idea, but would it be possible to link directly to the landing pages - https://twitter.com/HomebrewClubIrl and https://www.facebook.com/NationalHomebrewClub

This is a screenshot using Google Chrome -

Works fine for me in Chrome. I think the issue I was having on FF is my own problem with twt images.
