Many of these niggling problems will be sorted when the 'ALL NEW SPARKING CHORDIE' is unveiled. smile
We are presently Beta testing her to iron out any bugs we can find before we let everyone loose on her to make it a trouble free transition for you all. (OK there are bound to be a few that we miss but you can let us know so that Per can sort them).

Hopefully it will not be long now.

Chordie was down for quite a while yesterday as the internet providers were working on the power supply. Sorry for any inconvenience.

Doug is great - he knows the technical stuff and how to say it like a human though.

This should be Doug's new signature. big_smile

Hi Garret,

Please post the links to a couple of your songs that do not have the 'Transpose' feature.

Hi Garrett,

I too am using Windows 10 and I still have the transpose, so I am at a loss to know what is causing your difficulty. As there are some changes on the way the person who could probably answer this is extremely busy trying to get everything right with the updated version (which may well sort it for you) so, if you can please be a little patient and write again if the re-vamped Chordie does not do the trick.

If any of my more computer literate colleagues has any other suggestions please say so.

Sorry, there has been a bit of a hiccup and Chordie has been down for a while today. She should be fine now.

I am sorry that did not work for you.

As has been pointed out there are some changes coming which means that the owner of the site (who runs Chordie as a hobby and not for profit) is very busy at this time, however I have dropped him a line pointing out your difficulty, but I am not sure how quickly he will be able to reply. I know you are able to access Chordie through a roundabout route, so please be patient and bear with us if you do not get an immediate answer.

If any of my more computer literate colleagues are able to offer any assistance please chip in.

Just to be sure, are you doing anything different to this?

1/ Open the page with the song you wish to print.

2/ Click on the 'print' icon between the 'auto-scroll' and the 'chopro' on the right hand side of the page.

3/ In the new page click on the 'print' icon at the top of the page.

4/ When the print box shows do you check that the correct printer is selected before clicking on the Print command within that box?

The song should then be printed.

Hi John and welcome to Chordie,

What you are looking at is 'tabs' which is a way of showing you how to pick out a melody with individual string for people who cannot read music. The 6 lines represent the six strings of your guitar and the number is the number of the fret you play it at for the desired note.

It is probably easier to stick to chords to start with smile.

Welcome Penceffel,

This tuning and chord shapes is already available,

GCEA is ukulele 'C' tuning so, if you select this option in Resources, the songs that you choose will show the correct chord grids.

I had a niggling doubt about the Facebook post and now I know why. I love surprising people too so I am sure she will be one extremely happy bunny on Christmas day.

Goof for you,
