Keeps logging me out - is there a box I need to check somewhere or something?

Nano said there's a couple bugs with cookies, and suggests deleting your cookies and logging in again. They may be conflicting with the old board. I'm going to try that myself...

I think that's probably right - it seems to be working now. If I reboot my rig that might solve it.

That extra click is necessary due to the way the posts are now 'threaded' :)

I had sorted that prior to beta 5 but it looks like they added some extra checks in beta 5. Should be sorted now :D

If you mean the post barcharts for a person, then it is the graph symbol next to the name in the postbit to the left of the post. If you mean for the site then the "VB Stats" link on the forums home page has been replaced with "Site Stats" and that is where you will find it :)

I have an idea about a way round this, but as it is still in development I am going to wait and see if they do anything about it before making any changes.

To save you reading the key on the Who's Online page ;) It indicates someone on your buddy list :)

When your in WYSIWYG mode and you put in ;lol; (replacing ; for : ) without picking it from the list, is it suppose to display the smiley? If not is there a way to refresh it so it does?

Stupid Question No.2 : The PM notification popup box isn't working ?
Jules
1st September 2003, 11:34 PM
It's been working for me.....
...but I'm looking for a way to disable the "read receipt" option.
Nanobot
1st September 2003, 11:39 PM
Do you mean the read receipt request when you send a PM or the one when you receive one ?

And I thank you and Chelle sooo very much :kisses:
I got a little frantic there for a bit :sunshine: (as I do) And as soon as the pain meds kick in perhaps this killer headache will go away too and all will be back to normal (what ever that is LOL)

...and still have a way to track PMs....currently the read receipt seems to be the only way to determine if one has been read.

Auto login working or still being worked on? I deleted all my cookies (now I got a ton of useless milk) and I still gotta login everytime. :)

I've been checking out the download options with the private messages, and have tried all three....What I've found is that I get the To, From, Title and Date fine in the XML and text format but there's no date in the CSV format....additionally there's no body in any of the formats....is there something I'm doing wrong?

I've found that if you view the board "threaded", that you can use the quick reply without having to click the icon....tho..you only can view on reply at a time.

If nobody uses threaded mode you can turn it off and do away with the click needed for the quick reply
Chelle

Yep I know, but I'd like to give people the chance to play with both before we do away with any feature :)

You can click on the track messages link which is just to the left of the jump button near the top of the page :)

Your local PITA :D
The problem was due to me deleting the "Remember Me" tick box because I thought there was a user option for browsing the board with cookies. There is no longer such an option so I have put the tick box back and that should sort things out :)

You can click on cancel when you send a PM to stop the request for a read receipt but that is the only control there is

The date is present in the CSV format as the first entry on the line. The missing body was due to decrypting the decrypted message :rolleyes:
