Title: UKDFD
Post by: jtalbot0001 on February 09, 2018, 05:37:40 PM
Hi All,

Has anyone used the UKDFD site at all in the last few days? Is the site usable? I can't do anything on it at the moment apart from looking at messages. So need to know if it is functioning?

Thanks.
Jon

When you say it works, can you look at the database as well as do other things on the site?

UKDFD as been updated  if you want to post and record finds you know have to pay and only members only . It's a pay credit system.

Details are on the site you have to make an unspecified donation to be able to record items etc.
Been like this for some time....PaulB.

Not sure whether the UKDFD is  officially recognized, I did say not sure LOL

Why would you want to pay to record finds when it is completely free to record on PAS site.  ::)

Thanks for the messages.

I didn't want to record anything, just wanted to view the finds on there. When I sign in I am told to read a message before I can do anything on the site. When I delete the message or read it it doesn't acknowledge that I have done so, so I am always back at the beginning. When I sign out, so I am now a guest, it tells me that the UKDFD database cannot be used as it is being upgraded, which I don't understand as some here have said they can use it? I cannot contact them when I am signed in as I cannot use the site until I read the message which I have read a 100 times, its the most ridiculous thing ever.

That's the reason why I ask if the site can be used or not.

Hi Kev,

You're a genius! That link works. How on earth are others meant to get to that link from the main site? I have just been going to the main site and going to the database as I have always done, which clearly does not work.

Thanks a million - why nobody else didn't mention the link change I don't know.

Jon
