PM technicality

Post by Gaybutton »

When you receive a PM, two things are supposed to happen. If you look at the top right of your screen a notification will appear where it says "Private messages." If a number other than 0 appears in the little box, then you have at least one PM waiting. To see it, simply click on "Private messages."

You can also click on "Private messages" if you wish to send a PM.

The second thing that happens is an Email notification will be sent to the Email address you registered with. If you click on the link within the Email, it will take you directly to the PM you received.

Only one little problem - at least with me the Email notification was going to my Spam box rather then my Inbox. Moses came through yet again with a two solutions for it.

One solution is if you find the Email in your spam box, simply mark it "not spam".

The other solution is to add my Email address to your Contacts list ( [email protected] ). Moses said if an Email address is in your Contacts list, then any Email you receive should go to your Inbox. We tested that solution. It works.

That's with Gmail. If you're using other Email addresses such as Outlook, Yahoo or whatever, see: http://onlinegroups.net/blog/2014/02/25 ... l-address/

Don't forget - if you ever change your Email address, you need to change it on the board or any Email from the board will be going to the wrong address. You can make the change by going to the USER CONTROL PANEL. On this new version of the board, click the down arrow next to your user name at the top right of the screen. That's where you'll find the USER CONTROL PANEL.

Alternatively, you can inform me via Email or a PM of an Email address change. I can change it for you myself if you wish.

I've received a couple complaints that some of the links are still taking people to the hijack site. Folks, it's not the board. Thanks to Moses, now the board is working perfectly.

If that, or any other problems, are still happening to you, the solution is to clear your browser cache, close your browser, restart your browser, and come back to the board. So far that has cleared up any lingering problems.

If that doesn't work, at the bottom right of your screen click on "Delete all board cookies" and then restart the board.

If that still doesn't work, let me know.
