NEW FEATURE

If you will notice, in the upper right hand corner there is a new button that takes you to PalmTalk's new Community Calendar. Will some of you give it a try (if you have an event to add) and let me know how it is working? Hint - You add "New Events" in the lower right hand corner.

Anyone else not getting email notifications of PMs? I have this option selected on my controls, but suddenly they are not arriving even though I am receiving messages. The email alert is a convenient feature, especially when using my phone.

Time differences

I have noticed a time difference between the main forum page and the sub-forums for a while but I don't know how consistent it is. The sub-forums report 1 hour behind the main forum. Main forum 6:32am Sub-forums 5:32am If I click on the link back to the main forum, the time shows at 5:32. If I refresh the main forum, the time restores to 6:32. Clicking on any of the sub-forums after that causes the time to revert one hour. Refresh does not update to the correct time on the sub-forums. I see the same with IE6. Doesn't appear to happen if I am not logged in. Could be my old browsers, but I have never seen this on any other forums/websites.

Avatar issues

Seems that I can upload an avatar and see it on my avatar control page, but the old avatar continues to persist in message threads and is not replaced by the new image. It doesn't help if I delete it and upload something from scratch... the old one still pops up again. When I click on 'view image' it seems as if some sort of time stamp is being put on any new image I upload as an avatar which interferes with the ability to see it in message threads. I'll try to provide a more detailed explanation if there's no easy answer. Thanks, Ian

Need to change my email address/password

Dear Admin, I want to change my current email address as registered. In order to do that I have to enter my password. I don't have or remember it and my current email program is out of action so I can't look up any emails from Palmtalk. I can't change my password because it would be sent to the old email address which is out of action and hopefully will remain that way. So, here I am working on a laptop which auto recalled the password last time I had difficulties. I am only here for a short time, so could someone please PM me a password urgently so I can get in and change my email address. I have a new PC arrangement and want to have this info for the new PC set up…

I remember when we first moved to the new palm site years ago, and I was wondering if the old palm archives were still available? Just curious, would be kinda cool to look though them.

Hello Dean, This feature does not function on this new platform. The Northern Calif. affliate group has a meeting on August 17th. If it's not possible on this new platform, perhaps we should remove this header. Thanks very much for your attention!

Is this possible ?
by Walter John- 6 replies

Hi there Dean and fellow palm site gurus. Is it possible to have a little pop up window appear when folk log on to the site. Each individual could manage his/her own settings for that to occur. It would nice to know, Oh look, Frank has just signed in, I think I'll send him that pm now etc. Just a thought.

White version of PalmTalk?
by Kim- 10 replies
- 2.1k views
Does anyone else ever get an all-white version of PalmTalk at random times? The format is the same, it functions the same, but the screen is mostly white, so it's harder to tell where one post ends and another begins. Then randomly it will go back to the blue format, easier to read. Just curious how this happens and if anyone else has experienced this.

grower ratings

One forum member has been stumpheaded yesterday. BUT, why is his grower rating no longer present on this forum? He doesn't have to be forum member to have rating here as a seller. I think that's clear to all. Will his rating topic be back? I think you know who i'm talking about. Regards!

I just noticed that some users use very large avatars that are just scaled down to apropriate size. For example, Surferjr's avatar has 908 kb, 1024px × 861px. Can something be done regarding that... it just slows the forum...

I wanted to look up the PRA that we did to the SD Zoo and because all, or any, of the words in the title are under 4 characters it won't do it. I think the thread was called PRA to the SD Zoo. You can't search for PRA, SD, or ZOO. Can that be fixed?

Editing
by gsn- 2 replies
- 1.4k views
I know that regular palm talk members can only edit up to 30 minutes after the original post and the edit time is shown. I also know that for IPS members it does not show it was edited, or the time it was edited when they change something in their post. My question is do they have the same 30 minutes to edit, or is it a longer period of time? The reason I ask this question is, because in some recent threads, it seems I read them one day and they say one thing, then read them at a later time or the next day ,and the post has changed considerably? thanks

NEW RATING SERVICE FOR NURSERIES AND GROWERS 1 2
by PALM MOD- 45 replies
- 7.2k views
Allowing comments about nurseries and growers in the "Discussing Palms" forum has turned into a fiasco. Not only is it off-topic to what we would like to discuss in that forum, it has turned into a disrespectful free for all. The IPS wants to allow feedback on growers, so that buyers can get some idea of who they are dealing with when they find a nursery here or elsewhere. So, in order to provide some order, and to provide a more worthwhile service, we are instituting a new area that will be used exclusively for the discussion of those who sell seeds and/or palms. In addition it will contain a rating system for individual nurseries and backyard growers. Jungle Music…
