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!

Forum App?

I don't know if this is where I can put suggestions, This might be something I personally want but others may want and find this useful too but having an app available on phones to be able to use the forums on mobile, I know you can log into the site on mobile browsers but it's kind of funky and it would be nice to receive notifications directly on my device and access Palm talk from anywhere on the go

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.

Clayton posted a couple of good suggestions in another topic. I thought it would be worth it to start a new topic, specifically for suggestions (I may regret this ), and start it with his post which I will move here.

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…

Freeze data forum

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 cut these Bismarkia seeds last Sunday near my home in South Florida. They have fallen off the stalk since then. What do I do with them now? Peel them, soak them, dry them? Are they ripe enough to be viable? I see articles on germination but not on what's best for preparing the seed prior to starting that process. I'd be thrilled if just one popped... Thanks in advance for your advice. S

GOOD NEWS-LARGER PHOTOS
by PALM MOD- 30 replies
- 7.5k views
Previously the only way to post photos larger than 100 kb was to use a hosting service such as Photo Bucket. The direct attachment to your post by uploading to PalmTalk was restricted to files under that size. Now, for IPS Members only, we have found a way to allow photo sizes of up to 250 kb to be attached to your posts, and avoid the need for a hosting service. In fact, we would encourage you to post photos this way, so that PalmTalk will never lose photos if members change hosting services, or purge their libraries. You will need to be an IPS Member to take advantage of this new benefit. Please consider doing so. To learn more about the IPS, or to sign up, you c…

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!

Having to login anew each time I open PT- iPad only
by JT in Japan- 5 replies
- 1.7k views
Hi there, I'm having an issue that only happens with my iPad (iOS 8): every time I open PT, I have to login anew. This happens even though I've never logged out from previous session, even when I've checked the "remember me" box, even when I just used PT 5 minutes earlier and set mt iPad down. It doesn't happen on my iPhone 6, nor when I use my windows-based notebook and browser. Any ideas? Btw, I use Safari browser on my iPad, but nowhere else. Thanks JT

@PALM MOD, If my heading was not too cryptic, What is the difference? Are the responses recorded by Microsoft, google or anyone else for any reason? I know that 'Likes" are used by google to categorize people in some of their web pages. I'm just trying to understand this system. I'm just thinking if there is no difference then why would you add it.

Hi to all I've a load of great pics to share but when I upload them here they are all over the place, upside down and horizontal. They all look right-way-up on my computer. Previously I've taken the pics onto Corel draw and made new files but it is laborious and I don't have to time to muck around. Would love to share but it's too much of a hassle with pics all over the place when they upload. Using a great camera - Cannon 6D with some awesome lenses.... so what's the deal? Appreciate your input... Cheers, Andy

Hijack of a personal e-mail message?
by Alicehunter2000- 4 replies
- 1.6k views
I contacted ErikSJI up in the Northwest Coast about buying some Butiagrus seedlings and wanted his address to send a money order to. I was contacted back by this individual (Mark Lynn) who is located in Florida asking me to send the money to him for the seedlings. He might be the distributor for Erik in Florida but I am suspicious because Erik had already contacted me and given me a price and shipping across the country. I also tried to find a Palmtalk member under this name (Mark Lynn) and came up with nothing...........This is not passing the smell test. Have our personal messages here on Palmtalk been hacked?

How about a CycadTalk subfolder?
by Madchemis- 21 replies
- 3.9k views
Hi All, I'm new here, I've been wondering since their is frequent discussion, sale, and exchange about cycad. Wouldn't it be better to have another sub-topic devoted for it, such as CyadTalk. I know that there is a Cycad Forum, but it's mainly sales and exchanges in Africa. I like their forum setup and I think it would be good to have one here too. This is just suggestion and would like to know what you feel about this. -David

Piping Plovers want to sell me a plant, I want to send him my FedX shipping label, and I can't tell if it was attached. sent last night and the PM shows a box, that says the attached file. Should it show the specifics ie (like a picture view)? In other words, how do I know I was successful that it was attached. Cecile I did a private message and asked but I haven't heard back, but I should know how to work this system and do it correctly. Thank you. Cecile
