   PT/Facebook

   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

   Has anybody had any problems ordering publications thru the IPS website. It could be me! I tried to order genera pamarum II and got a (error executing database query)/(syntax error)? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Don

   I have posted on this before but at the risk of being banned may I suggest high Nitrate plus some P and K and micronutrients . Also Epsom salts for the Mg content (essential to Chlororophyll) It works for me. Regardez and good palm growing all. Ive just spent two months in hospital and beaten the quuacks (polite Brit term for Docs). Im tougher than thyey think and I will be ready for the next big project in a year or three. Plenty of palms anyway! Regardez amigos JUAN

   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

   Question for RLR

   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

   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

    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) …

    Dean, thanks for setting the board so you can see who gave you Reputation. I was always curious. Before when you clicked on the button to see you ended up giving yourself additional reputation . Also, who is the user "IPS"? Thanks Dean.

    Is there a way to configure the way I view a post so that all of the text can be seen in one screen? It often happens that the width of the text portion of a message is wider than my screen, and I have to scroll back and forth to read each line.

    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?

    I come on the forum and try to search before I post questions. However, the site has a crazy search blocking timer. It keeps telling me to wait different times before I can look at the second page of the search results. I can never see the second page of the search results. Can this be fixed? It does render most of the past posts useless. Thank you

    Seed Germination Data Forum?

    I was wondering if anybody else might find use in a forum in which we can compile seed germination data under species-specific entries (similar to how it is compiled in the freeze-damage forum). I figure that a lot of us grow palms from seed, and it would be helpful to have a place where we can find first-hand data about seed viability, germination rates, germination times, stratification, etc. Thoughts?

    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.
