it used to appear at the top from time-to-time.. depending on where you accessed the forum index from, i think when you accessed it from the homepage, the sign would appear on all pages accessed from there on... maybe some of the admins can help us here..

I recall that the old homepage had a feature whereby anything accessed from within it was loaded into a window; thus keeping the titlebar intact. I took this screen dump of "Cascading Bus Australia" whereby I had loaded the homepage within the homepage etc.

Yeah, thats right. I rarely opened the forum from the homepage or at least had it in its own window.

Ah yes - now I see what he was referring to. Unfortunately that facility is not within my powers at the moment.

There are no short or medium term plans to revert Bus Australia to a CMS (content management system) like Drupal or any other. They are mostly complex and difficult to learn and don't work well with Bus Australia as we don't need all the various features that CMS's include.
