    How to add Date Next In Florida Countdown to the forums

    We've now finished the work on the Countdown to the next time you are in Florida, like we had on the old forums. The process to set it up is slightly different, but the end result in much the same.

    This only displays to you and not other users so no need to worry about privacy.

    This is how it will look:



    To set it up:
    1. Click 'Settings' at the top of any forum page.
    2. Click 'Edit Profile'.
    3. You'll see a new field 'Date you are next in Florida (dd-mm-yyyy)' towards the bottom of the field.
    4. Enter the date you next go to Florida in the format dd-mm-yyyy e.g. 25th December 2011 = 25-12-2011. It is important the date is entered EXACTLY in this format as it won't get recognised as a date otherwise.
    5. Click 'Save Changes' to save this and display the new Countdown at the top of every form page you see when you are logged in.
    You can, of course, then update this date at any time for future trips to Florida .

    Have tried, unsuccessfully to do this!

    I am being stopped by my inability to complete the "Anti-robot Field". It says to type in any three or four letter words. I have tried "cat dog pig" or just "cat" but it's not happy with either combination.

    Help - please![]

    Thanks - that worked.[clap]

    It'll teach me to read instruction more carefully in the future (Oh no it won't![msnwink]).

    I did find it much easier to come up with three letter words though!
