   Opened facebook page?

   It seems whenever we post on the IPS page on facebook, any friend of ours, not being a group member, is allowed to see and interact. Why not increase the group privacy?

   Well, thanks to RLR for the new forum. I am just a week away from a trip out west and into Mexico as well. I am not sure which Mexican states I'll be going to but Sonora is a possibility. So maybe I'll get to See Sabal uresana in the wild. Zac

   Posting user names of deceased people

   I wish to find old posts of RLR, since he was mentioned by _Keith in one of his recent posts, but I did dot know even whom those letters refer to. Fortunately I was able to see in the memorials the name of Bob Riffle, which helped me further to remember his full official name in literature (Robert Lee Riffle). So I had from then on a starting point but I do not know the user name under which he was participating in the forum in order to visit his profile and search for the content... So I was thinking that it might be helpful for newcomers in PT that user names are also published near the real names of deceased famous people in the palm world. What a better way to honor …

   There was a recent old post titled "What is the tallest known XButyagrus? " started by member merrillwx.. Dr. Merril Wilcox was a fine man and a strong palm advocate. Unfortunately he passed on some rime ago. Hopefully he went on to a better place with all the palms he could ever want. Is it possible to have one of those candles and "in Memorium" flags added to his old posts like Dick Douglas (PalmGuyWC) has on his old posts? Thank you for your consideration.

   Can anyone tell me if there is a forum where members who are selling their houses (with a garden full of palms) may mention this and post some photos? It irks me to sell my house to someone with no appreciation of what's growing in the garden. Thanks.

   Editing notes

   Dean, I posted a item and noticed that there were some spelling errors. I immediately went back into the post and edited it, noted the error type and the edit box checked. Message returned to me that too much time had passed to edit and the post would not update . I then unchecked the box, entered, and the post updated with the spelling corrected. Minor issue to me, but with a more comprehensive edit a note that it was edited would be nice. Many thanks for all of your work. JC

   Viewing problems on mobile

   Is anyone else having problems viewing the forum on mobile? I'm on an iPhone iOS 9. The website displays is a long column all across the left half of my screen with blank white space on the right half. There is one advertisement banner that goes all the way across the full width of the screen which I'm assuming is the problem because that's setting the width of what I'm viewing.

    Dean, As I know you are not a big fan of MS products but many people use them. You may be getting a few notices on features not working using MS Edge, the replacement for IE. For example, the emoticons do not seem to be working when replying to a post......this is not a deal killer but for info only. FYI JC

    Help me out with pics please

    Hi to all I've a load of great pics to share but when I upload them here they are all over the place, upside down and horizontal. They all look right-way-up on my computer. Previously I've taken the pics onto Corel draw and made new files but it is laborious and I don't have to time to muck around. Would love to share but it's too much of a hassle with pics all over the place when they upload. Using a great camera - Cannon 6D with some awesome lenses.... so what's the deal? Appreciate your input... Cheers, Andy

    The problem with forums is that they're full of buried treasure. Unless a thread is stickied, no matter how much useful information it contains... it will eventually be pushed off the first page. And then it will be pushed off the second page... and then the third page and so on. A google search can easily help people find buried treasure... but, it can just as easily help people find buried trash! And the internet has a lot more trash than treasure. What's needed is some group rating effort to highlight the quality content. Here are some possibilities... 1. Unlimited micropayments Each member would have the option of using paypal to put money into their dig…

    Having to login anew each time I open PT- iPad only

    Hi there, I'm having an issue that only happens with my iPad (iOS 8): every time I open PT, I have to login anew. This happens even though I've never logged out from previous session, even when I've checked the "remember me" box, even when I just used PT 5 minutes earlier and set mt iPad down. It doesn't happen on my iPhone 6, nor when I use my windows-based notebook and browser. Any ideas? Btw, I use Safari browser on my iPad, but nowhere else. Thanks JT

    Indoor & Container Grown Palms

    Hi. I'm not sure this is the place to do this but it does say "suggestions" so here it goes: I suggest adding a subforum called "Indoor & Container Grown Palms". I don't know how many are interested in it but there seems to be a few at least. Since many grow in containers also in hotter climates, maybe more than I realize (I hope). Worth a try?
