   Cannot Reply To New PM

   I received a new PM this morning to which I cannot reply. The message has a red X next to it on the "My Conversations" page, and when the message is accessed the send button is grayed out and says "You cannot reply." Why would this be happening? I have some other messages appearing the same way, but most are "reply-able."

   Hi Dean, The last few times that I have replied to some PMs; when I post them they appear with some picture attachments that I did not attach. I did not even have these pics on my computer. Weird, as I have no virus and have never seen these pics before. Jim

   Why can't we post freebies or trades without paying?

   Some of us are not wealthy enough to pay for a full membership, yet some of us (such as myself) would love to share / give away some seeds, or trade - where no money is involved - Why should we be required to pay a hefty fee just to post something we are giving away? I understand the wisdom in having vendors / sellers having to pay something, but what about the little guys who just enjoy sharing a few seeds here and there? I mean, this puts people like myself in a position where we are "taking advantage" of the "freebies" because those people giving those seeds away, have to pay, and those of us who get those seeds, cannot return the favor. What was the thinking b…

   I was trying to find some data on the freeze data forum and it was very difficult to navigate or find what I wanted, yet there is a mine of information there. If there was some way to organise this info into alphapbetical order it would be a goldmine, and i suspect more people would add info. As it is people seem to post the same plant over and over rathe rthan accumulating info.

    I'm getting an array error while sending PM's. This occurs when I break up the main body of a quote but not all the time. Can you help? You certainly have my permission to look at the PM I authored and sent to Paul Gallop just before starting this topic.

    -Did you know PalmTalk now supports the uploading of multiple photos? You can choose 4 at a time to upload. (I may change that to 5) When posting a photo look for "Help with attaching files" Try our advanced uploader which supports multiple file uploading (modern browser required)" Then proceed and look for "Enable Flash Uploader." Check it and you will then be able to choose multiple files to be uploaded all at once. -Did you know there appears to be an option for a "skin" that makes using the Forum from mobile devices easier and faster. A PalmTalk Lite, so to speak. Has anyone tried PT from an mobile device yet? I'm not sure if it is activated. -Did you k…

    From around 11.30am (GMT+1) this morning until 9.30pm I was unable to connect to the forum. I cleared my cache, re-booted but still no luck. So I checked the status of www.palmtalk.org with a couple of websites: Down For Everyone Or Just Me? and CheckSite.us - Site Check Sure enough, both failed to connect. Can anyone confirm that the server has been going off-line?

    Hello, everyone: When I try to access my PMs I get the following message: "[#10229] We could not determine which message you were attempting to view. " I was not able to send any PMs, either which is why I'm posting this up here. Sorry to be PIA, but I need my PMs to start mailing out my palm seeds to all my palm-buds all over the globe, and now I can't get the addresses everyone sent me . . . .

    WAS ANYONE STILL USING "CLASSIC BLUE?" 1 2

    The new upgrade "broke" the Classic Blue Skin. There may be a way to fix it with a little bit of work. But, if very few will miss it, the time and potential problems a fix could lead to is not worth it. If you are using it, you will notice some weirdness with some things. Try using the newer skin (options at bottom left hand corner of page) and see if you can't get used to it. There are actually some improvements not available with Classic Blue.

    I didn't see this in a current topic so please re-direct me if this issue has already been covered. There is no longer a date displayed on any of the posts (just a 10 digit number starting with "12844") -- I checked in my settings and didn't see anything that I could change there -- is this "now normal" or is there a problem with the date feature? Thanks, Tim

    Change Search to 'all words' instead of 'any words'

    September 8, 2010 by Delilah

    • 2.8k views

    Hi Might I suggest that the Search default be changed to search "all words"? Currently it is set to search "any words", which of course brings up hundreds of pages in most cases and so is no use. e.g. Seaching for how to "store palm seeds" brings up every page with the word "store", plus every page with the word "Palm", plus every page with the word "seed" - thousands of pages. No help at all! Hopefully this is a forum setting which can be easily accessed by administrators(?) Thanks

    Well, The heavy lifting is done. There are still some tweaks etc. that need to be done. If you guys think it's weird getting used to and figuring out the new forum look and features, you should take a look at the Administration Control Panel. Please realize I am starting from the same place as you are. I will have to figure out some answers as well. So if you have figured out an answer to a question, please chime in. Don't forget, there is a "HELP" option in the upper right hand corner. Try checking there first for the obvious things you may be having trouble with. As to the PMs - I mentioned that the PM system was much different. I don't know all the intrica…

    Book Reviews

    I ran an advanced search, but did not see anywhere that this question has been asked. Is there a "Book reader review" on PalmTalk anywhere? It would be great to see book reviews set up in the same manner we have been reviewing palm nurseries. Do we have this somewhere? If not, is there interest in setting it up?
