I was able to get the DOWNLOADS SYSTEM re-installed and it looks like most content is intact. I did a test upload and it worked.
This system has a jillion configuration options and I was just guessing as I set it up. It looks different but the functionality seems to be there. 


However, as adminstrator I cannot test how it works for regular members, so do not hesitate to contact me if something is not working for you. I did attempt to configure it so that only MSTA members could use it.

I can attest to Bob's stick to it attitude. I sent him a PM yesterday on something that wasn't working. After 2 tries, BAM! There it was. So, if you find an issue pipe up to Bob in a PM - don't blast him on the forum - and he'll take care of it as best he can. Kudos to Bob.

Thanks for all your hard work Bob, as somebody who works in IT I know how frustrating some of this can be.

I'll try to poke around in the coming days to see if I notice any issues.

Today I managed to get the Member Map re-installed and I invite members not on the map to stick your pin.
Members who joined since early October did not see the Map item on the top menu but it is now there.

Well done on the map Bob. You just keep knocking it out of the ballpark.
