NEW WARNING POLICY - PLEASE READ 1 2
by PALM MOD- 48 replies
- 10.1k views
The PalmTalk Web Committtee has decided to institute a new policy directed at curbing some of the rude, impolite, and hostile behavior floating around the Forum lately. It is a refinement of an existing policy, and one we wish to make sure everyone is aware of. It could be considered a "Three Strikes You're Out" policy. Those members who can not abide by the few and simple guidelines we have here will be issued an unofficial warning to make sure they understand they are in danger of receiving an "official" warning. The first official warning will result in a one week suspension, the second is a two week suspension, and with a third one you're gone. Your can view your "…

If there's an administrator reading this, I wonder if there is content that is not open to everyone? I'm going through old posts (2007) and often try links that are within a post, only to get a "404 Error Access Denied" message. This link, for example, posted by MattyB: my greenhouse II thread Can you help me understand? id like to read old posts when theycome up. Thanks, JT

Question for RLR
by Phil- 17 replies
- 4k views
Robert, I've noticed on my computer with the new Site that sometimes the text and pictures take up about two monitor frame widths. And, I have a 23 inch monitor. It gets frustrating to keep going back and forth to see what is written. But, sometimes on other posts it's all in the screen. Is this at your end? Or, do I need to do something at my end? I didn't have this problem with the old Server. Or, perhaps I've missed a discussion on this previously. Phil

Hi Palm mod, Could you delete this member name: Doranakanda It's me also, but when I started on Palmtalk, I had some problem with passwords and stupidly registered under two names; mine is Doranakandawatta and you can see it's alive. This is the wrong one I don't use: Doranakanda Member Since 23 Apr 2012 OFFLINE Last Active Jun 14 2012 03:37 PM Sorry, and thank you. Regards, Philippe

PT/Facebook
by John Case- 1 reply
- 1.3k views
I have had the PT/Facbook association up for a monthor so and have decided to disassociate it. The status posts put on FB are not the type of thing that is relevant to PalmTalk and I use FB a lot, which means that PT is inundated with 'status' post that might be found to be annoying on PT....even I was annoyed with my own 'status' posts on PT. So while some may want this link, I just do not see much value in it. Thanks for opening it up, Dean. John

Problems posting videos from photobucket
by Trópico- 3 replies
- 1.5k views
It seems I can no longer post video links from photobucket, where before I used to. This is the form I have always been using where an image is clickable in order to run a video. [ URL=http://path_to_video.mp4][ IMG ]http://path_to_thumb_of_video.jpg[ /IMG ][ /URL ] Now it just displays the image upon clicking it, but no video! I have no choice but to add a direct link to the video now but that also apparently is starting to give problems too! Help is much appreciated! Thanks

Redirected from Google search?? 1 2
by Patrick- 2 followers

Hi Mods. I have this intermittent issue. If I do a google search from their webpage and click one of the various palmtalk links it gives me, it will redirect me to a different site- same site every time. BUT! It only happens every now and then. Maybe a couple times a month with my amount of computer usage. Let's say I only get redirected like 3-5% of the time. I keep pretty up to date on my computer, spyware, antivirus, general maintenance, etc.. I can't say that it's NOT my computer, but I'm relatively certain it is not. I'm well aware of malware that redirects on a more regular basis. I have no other re-direct issues whatsoever (or malware, as far as I know) …

First Thank you Palmtalk! Since many months I browsed Palmtalk topics we can find through google images when searching a certain palm. Then I was quite difficult to understand how to use the forum... and cost time! But I posted first topics yesterday and like the communication through all members; I write in Swiss mountains and see Hawaï, Florida or Australia getting very close! How can I put photos on an album " garden gallery"? Best regards Philippe

I'm having an issue with the IP Board software Rich Text Editor and Firefox 15. The editor selections are grayed out (see image). I searched Google and saw that IP Board has released patches in the past to fix similar issues (apparently the RTE is a bit buggy), and was wondering if there are any patches available to fix this issue.

Site not banned!

Interestingly, I work for a corporation that has internet at work, but most of the interesting sites are blocked from our viewing (eg, Facebook, You Tube etc.). Until you (Dean) updated this site this last 24 hours, it was banned from my work and I could never get onto the forum page. Now it's not. Not sure what you did, but either in its new form it is under the radar, or our company finds it more palatable now. Thanks!!

Question About Editing Posts

Hi, I was trying to edit a post that I had already edited but found another mistake and the edit button disappeared. I am not sure what exactly happend, however I suspect that there is a limit time wise on how long you can edit a post after it has been posted. Maybe I missed something but if this is an intended feature is there anyway around it. I appreciate any help resolving this problem. I hope it posted this in the correct spot. Thanks, Dylan
