Mark,

It's there for me, in IE and Firefox

Thanks - didn't spot them in their new places

I can't find Next/Previous links on the Members pages

I have one PM in my inbox and one New PM that I can't read because I get "NO_AUTH_READ_HOLD_MESSAGE"

Me too! Delete some messages and away you go (until the next time it's full!)

1. The URL pop up box has gone - back to hand cranking?


2. The search facility is not the same as the trial run (which was much improved) e.g. searching for "Wilwood" returns two matches from 2005!

Oh, and where is the "view my posts" button?

It is on your profile page.

The e-mail notification of PMs does not identify the sender.

Like this?

Hello Dave Eds,

You have received a new private message from "GeoffSmith" to your account
on "Lotus Elan Central" with the following subject:

[GeoffSmith]

The e-mail notification of PMs does not identify the sender in the Subject line which is very useful when scanning for a PM.

It used to say "New Lotus Elan Central Private Message from Dave Eds"

I now says "New private message has arrived"

It also used to include the text of the PM in the e-mail but does not now.

Is it just me, or is there no longer a way to e-mail other members?

I've checked that the profile allows e-mail contact, but can't see any buttons for it?

[Enright]

Can't answer that. And I have another question - how long does a topic that you've just read stay blue before disappearing out of the list altogether, and is there a page where you can set your preference for this?

Nice one guys!

Is there an equiv to the old 'view new posts' button?

I can see + View unanswered posts • View active topics but I don't think these are the same??

I always used the old button to see anything I hadn't read since loggin on last.

Apologies if I'm being a numpty!

[Enright]

In the top left-hand corner of the Main Index page for me it reads:

"View unanswered posts • View new posts • View unread posts • View active topics"

Alternatively try copying and pasting this link:

http://forum.lotuselancentral.com/search.php?search_id=newposts

[WillB]

Aha! I hadn't logged in, DOH! Ignore me......

View new posts = shows the list of posts since your last visit (read & unread)
View unread posts = posts that you've not read, regardless of when you last logged on - this is the equivalent of the search on the old forum
