I'll let you know if that works. So far, if I click on a name that has been added to my list, their profile says "Remove friend", and gives me no option to add myself to their list.

Thx!

szsz, if you already have them on your list, the only option left is to remove them, which is why that's all that's listed when you visit their profile. If you want to be on their list (your above post) then only they can add you. (just like you are the only one that can add people to your own list) M.

btw...cool Cap'n...great job! M.

So, it's the battle of who adds first! Odd, because this morning I could add people who had already added me. I had three mutual friends before 10 am and we each added ourselves to each others lists.


??????????????????????

Hmmm yeah..if that's your question then I dunno...Mr. Cap'n will have to help you out! I read the question above differently... but...if you can't add people to *your* list that have, themselves, added you to *theirs* then something IS up with that...strange! If they're already on your list, they should be able to add you to theirs, or vice versa...hope you get it fixed soon! M.

Thx! Me too!

You can add people to your list. That does not add you to theirs. They have to add you as a friend and then you will be on their list. If you look at the friend tool you can see people that are mutual friends (you both have each other as friends). In the friends config you can set it up to require people to get your permission to add you as a friend (you can accept or reject). That is the only twist.

People can add themselves to another person's list. After that, you can't add yourself to their list without sending them an email asking them to add you. So, if you add yourself to their list first, they can't add you the same way. You have to ask them to add you to their list. Seems a bit weird that it's one way like that.

Well, I sent messages to everyone who added themselves to my list asking for them to add me to theirs. I guess that will fix it.

Thx!

It's cute that girls are pink and boys are blue

THey did not add themselves to your list. I ran a scipt that added people based on old preferences. That may be the confusion.

I just verified that the system works as stated above... maybe I am missing something.

Updated various icons (that I missed) and fixed some color issues (had some purple some place that should have been blue).

Oh, so those ppl that popped up in my list didn't do so on their own. That explains alot. How embarrassing! I thought they liked me!

Well, I added you!

Check out the settings in your profile. I think that will help explain a lot. You can choose different privacy and notification levels.

If someone has actually added you themselves, and you have notification enabled, you'll get an email or a board message when they add you to their list. If it was because of the script, then you won't be notified.

The people I had as "buddies" on the old version of the board I had already added manually to this version before Ewok ran the update script; so if anyone is on my friends list, I actually added them. Those people should feel special. ROFL!

people can add you as friends....but you have an option under your profile to set how you want to have people add you as friends...

go under settings in your profile.... and go down to moderation options....

either click on "allow addition without approval" or "only add with approval"

Wow! We appreciate all the works and the changes you made on this site!


a lot Captain Ewok!

ok im a lil lost. how do we see signatures now? i have them turned off on the forum, but if i want to see how their case is progressing, i used to click on their profile to see it... um... where did that go?

I found something that is somewhat annoing. When you make a post and you want to use a font, size and color all at once it adds the [/] for each feature when you click on it. So if you use all three you get something like this: [font][/font][size][/size][color][/color]. You have to move things around when you start to type and it makes it confusing.

I like the features in the reply box-but I think that particular feature (pink/blue) is somewhat kindergarten-ish.

I like the new look but nothing works for me.... can't leave a comment etc or anything...

I will see what's up later, I have a party to run off to....

Every time I try to reply to a post, I get booted out of explorer. Yesterday I couldn't post at all! Every time I got a new screen, I was back to being a guest again. I cleared my cookies and did the ctrl-F5 thing but nothing helps. I haven't changed anything on my computer and this only happened after the changes. Please advise, it's getting really frustrating to be an outcast for no apparent reason!!!!

I cleared my cache and I still can't show that I'm a girl!

I think I'm cursed!

Perfecto

The 'old' board used to let you see folks' siggys by viewing their profile, but I'm not seeing that on this version. Or am I missing something?

Its much easier to sneak and post at work when I can hide some of those flashy signatures but I like to see them from time to time (esp. ones who have their 'touches' recorded in there).

You need to purge your browser cache and temp files. Do a hard refresh after that (CTRL-F5) aftre reloading browser.

delete all temp files not cookies. cookies wont help.

I am wondering if it is related to the new conversion, but when I leave the site and return, I have to log in again, yet I have the box "remember me" toggled. Is there a problem with my system or is this something that needs to be resolved?

i've noticed tht too. although for me it is between home and work sessions.

i purposely left this site and came back to see if it logged me out automatically. it did not.

firefox at home. ie at work.

I tried this at work. Still fails. What other suggestions do you have? Works just fine from my personal computers at home. We are running under Novell Client 4.90 SP2 but all the regular windows functions work as usual. Only during logon.

do you mean you can't pick male or female on your profile or that it doesn't show up on your posts? Because if you are signed in anonymously it won't show up on your post....

I meant I couldn't pick it in my profile. I just cleared cache again this morning, and was suddenly able to choose it. Why that didn't work yesterday, I dunno.

same thing happened to me yesterday... nothing seemed to work and then all of a sudden things started working and I didn't even do the hard refresh thing or any of that

still wondering the same thing

ok, now i am missing friends.

can one "un-friend" on self from some else's list?

or is ther a limit?

Daniel


edit: ahhh this must be what captn did a switch on recently. ok...

I'm having a problem doing my signature. I can't click on any of the formatting boxes like font and text color! All I want is to make my yellow actually readable by using a darker yellow

Clear your browser cache.

I also just fixed live chat.

I have updated the first post in this thread with more information on how to effectively clear your browser cache.

anyone notice the related topics is now gone? still haven't figured out how to view signatures!

I've noticed that immediately consecutive posts by the same poster are not combined as they were before.

o rly?

ya rly

...triple post!! and ya rly jenn - ur right!

...triple post!!

Thanks for providing the evidence!

Looks way to complicated to me, why is there a huge gap at the top of the page.

I give up whats all this stuff on the left Insert hell no.

Can some one please make it easier to work out I need a guide book lol:)

I may add related topics back in the future. Where they ever used?

I used them only occasionally. What they did most, I think, was cause topics that had died months ago to be resurrected. Honestly, it's not a feature I miss.

I want to know how come you don't see anybody's "signature" when you view their profiles? I love that feature so you can see what's going on with their cases, and where they are in the process.

Is anybody else having this problem.

have you tried clearing your browser?

I have no gap or anything like that....
