   Redirected from Google search?? 1 2

   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) …

   how to start an album "garden gallery"?

   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.

   Why is my profile that is shown on the left side

   of my posts indicate something about warning posts? I do not see that listed on anyone else's posts? I barely post 5 posts a year! Also for years I had a picture showing in that profile (not sure what you call it) and now it is a blank square. What happened? Lastly, MY IPS membership does not show up either. Help!

   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!!

   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

    Arizona Subforum?

    I was wondering since Phoenix has such a drastic difference in climate from most of the other cities represented here if we could get a subforum of our own? I regularly find myself looking for information on a palm but can only find input from people growing in FL, CA and HI. While its nice to get some feedback from these people for the most part it does not apply to my situation. Can Phoenix get a subforum or maybe the southwest in general?

    Affiliated chapter subtopics on Palmtalk

    Dean, Our local Palm society chapter is having problems with keeping our website current & up to date. I am sure that there are a number of different affiliates around the word that have the same problem. So, I was wondering if the Palmtalk forum could start a new subtopic labeled "Affiliated Chapter News" Under this subtopic could be other subtopics for all the affiliated chapters that would like to post their news on IPS Palmtalk. What I am getting at is, this space would be for each affiliated group to post their newsletters, photos and updates about their chapter, on this forum, rather than have their own website. This Forum would give the local members a pla…

    First let me apologize for posting this thread here. For some unknown reason, I cannot post in the Administrative section. Perhaps the MODS could assist in the moving of this thread. Suggestion: Could we possibly get a feature, say adjacent to the IPS logo that could convert Celsius to Fahrenheit and vice-versa. Often when I am reading a post and Celsius is used, I am kinda in the dark as to the accurate temperture. What do the members think of the suggestion?

    In my opinion, the last 2 minutes is a worthless piece of information. I know that the reason it was changed was that the names listed, were already off line(possibly) but it does let us know who has been online. Anyways, I liked the 30 minute version much better...

    I know this site has been recently overhauled(at my request), but I don't believe anything has changed. I still can't retrieve past issues(some issues can be clicked on and viewed, but mostly they cannot)! As an IPS member, I am perterbed to say the least. I don't want my money back(as I hope it goes to worthy palm conservation), but how can I honestly reccomend the IPS to potential members?! Palms and Principes is why I joined the IPS and I still cannot access this reading material in all the time I have been a member. When I click on the article, Adobe asks me to accept their terms and I do, then I am met with a runtime error and my entire window is closed! If this we…

    Often, I search the palm exchange section. Many times I see people are let down by finding that what they want is on the opposite coast! Maybe this is too complex, but maybe not... How about a section for Southern California, a section for posting just in South Florida, and international add section, and an all encompassing one. This would not only make shopping and selling easier, but also not such a let-down.

    How come the list at the bottom of the main page shows very few people are logged in, when I'm pretty sure that more than 8 members are currently logged in. I can be having a PM with someone and the little color person next to their avatar that indicates they are online is not turned on. It seems that the forum is not recognizing that some people are logged in even though they are on the board posting and viewing. Whatupwitdat? Thanks mods for all your hard work.

    Linking problem to PT through google

    This is a peculiar annoyance that keeps happeneing to me for the last two weeks. I always go to Google, search for 'Palmtalk' and therafter click on the first link that turns up in the result - usually to the PT Forum. On doing so I get directed to this - http://url123.info/e875cd64, which is some literature on Windows 7. Now the funny part, if I go back to the seach results on Google and retry the same link, it works fine. This has happened on three different PCs running different OS' so it can't be a PC specific problem. I wonder if anyone else has had the same experience.

    This has been going on for a while. Every time I go to palm talk, the site makes me sign in. While that is not really a big deal, it is a small annoyance. Photobucket recognizes my computer...so does barnes & noble, yahoo and others. So it is not a firewall thing. Any thoughts? I always click the box to remember me but alas...
