fundraiser idea - prioritizing categories
by epiphyte- 0 replies

we all know the story of the tulip mania? plant trends are rather fascinating. what's the biggest plant trend in the past 50 years? i wouldn't be surprised if it was the recent trend in houseplants that happened as a result of covid and was facilitated by instagram. personally, i enjoyed this trend quite a bit since it created a huge supply of some of the plants i've been collecting for many years, such as aroids. before this trend, when i would see ecuagenera at local shows, they sold like 95% orchids and 5% aroids. now it's the complete opposite. imagine if they had initially sold 100% orchids, then they would have been too late on the houseplant trend…

PalmTalk Dark Theme

So instead of working today I spent the morning creating a dark theme for the site. Why a dark theme? Well for those of you who spend all day at a computer (like me), or like browsing the site in the evening (also me), dark themes are great for reducing strain on your eyes and won't keep your wife up all night while you browse palmtalk in bed. To use the theme, you have to install a browser plugin on your preferred web browser which can edit the sites styling (CSS) Stylish - Chromium based browsers (Chrome, Brave, Dissenter) Stylish - Firefox SuperStyles - Microsoft Edge Stylus - Opera Once the plugin is installed, copy and paste my…

3 line preview of forum topics?
by Merlyn- 6 replies
- 1.2k views
After the latest update all the forums defaulted to showing the topic and then a 3 line preview of the first post. This showed up on my Android tablet (Brave browser) a few days ago, and then showed up on my regular PC (Firefox browser) today. While this might be a nice feature to have as an option, I couldn't find a way to turn it off in my profile settings. I vaguely recall this happening a year or two ago, but can't recall what I did to "fix" it. I already tried logging out and back in, with no change. Any suggestions?

This is definitely turned on in settings. I certainly used to get emails for messages, and I still get emails for subscribed topics. Yes, I have checked that they're not ending up in the spam folder.

I'm just curious if anybody else is seeing any inappropriate advertising on the site? I have seen sexual content (nothing pornographic, just items for sale) and t-shirts with political nonsense. Admins, are there any controls around that sort of thing?

Piping Plovers want to sell me a plant, I want to send him my FedX shipping label, and I can't tell if it was attached. sent last night and the PM shows a box, that says the attached file. Should it show the specifics ie (like a picture view)? In other words, how do I know I was successful that it was attached. Cecile I did a private message and asked but I haven't heard back, but I should know how to work this system and do it correctly. Thank you. Cecile

Key to disorders and diseases
by Patrick- 0 replies
- 971 views
Hi Mod, Many, many, many of the interactions on Palmtalk are in regards to nutritive problems with palms, etc.. Lots of us help out with this, it's no big deal, I think many of us are glad to help. In an effort to assist people in diagnosing their palm issues, I remember 'a key to common landscape palm disorders and diseases' by Tim Broschat and Monica Elliott that was published in the September 2005 issue of Palms. It starts on page 143. I've used it over the years when I wasn't able to figure out what I had going on with a palm. Is this key something that we could digitize and perhaps "stickey" in the forum to help people that might be trying to …

Palm Exchange suggestion
by 5am- 1 follower

- 3.9k views
The PalmTalk team has done a great service for the palm community with this forum! It has a modern feel with many nice features and the price can't be beat! That said, there are some pain points with the Palm Exchange forum. The listings last forever even if the item is no longer available. This is clutter which the user must hunt through, and there's a lot of it. Listings that that aren't on the first couple pages get 'buried' behind the others. Are they still available or not? We may never know! A possible solution is found in how the exchange boards are listed. A tabular index (or "search page") will provide a superior experience. Sea…

Birthday Reactions

This is just a small, cute suggestion. I always see people's birthdays on the side and I wish I could say happy birthday to everybody individually, but I think it would be neat if the birthday tab would let you send a reaction, kind of as if you were liking a post or something, just as a simple way of making that tab more interactive and to let people know happy birthday.

Why has this site for years said my pics are too big???
by Mr. Coconut Palm- 1 follower

For years, this site has said my pics are too big. I have had problems uploading pics on this site so often it makes me want to no longer use this site. I used to have a digital camera to take standard sized pics that I didn't have a problem at all uploading to a tropical gardening Facebook page I have, but this site would give me lots of problems trying to upload the exact same pics. Now, I use my phone camera that takes standard sized pics, but yet again, nothing but problems trying to upload pics. I wonder how many other people are discouraged from using Palmtalk for the same reason??? For those of us who are low tech and not savvy in the technical aspects of phot…

.Good afternoon to you, several day's ago I came across a post on here concerning someone in my general vicinity about a dombeya wallichii in their yard. I never heard anything back from them, or anyone else in regards to the topic posted. Am I still connected to the site; or is there a disconnect on my part; or am I still on this site? Just wondering, and thank you for your time.

Permission to post to "for sale" forum
by BobStrauss- 4 replies
- 1.4k views
I'm having trouble figuring out how to post on the for sale forum. I joined IPS, but the page indicates I also need to contact a moderator to request access. However, I can't seem to find info on who the moderators are. So I'm a little clueless. Could someone please point me in the right direction? Thanks!
