[email protected] Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 The Amazon server crash two weeks ago reset various board parameters, and we're still trying to fix them all. Right now, it appears that searches are not covering all subforums, and that the email functions on the boards are not working. We're aware of those two problems and working to fix them. We will keep you posted. If other problems appear, please let us know. Moderator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginevra Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 Thanks for the notice; I've noticed there are weird things going on here. There are several posts where the post repeated 6 or 7 times. These were different posters. In one thread, this happened twice. There's also a strange message sometimes in posting to a thread. It says, "Thank you for posting...etc." and has some error codes on the page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simka2 Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 Certain threads seem to just disappear. I'm unsure if it is just threads i respond to. I responded to one this morning and no matter how hard i look i cannot find it. :confused: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elizabeth in MN Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 Editing signatures doesn't seem to work? Yes, that is a question and not a statement. People are talking about it as an issue but it's not posted here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KAR120C Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 I accidentally figured out that even though I can't go through the control panel link directly, I can click on "private messages" (upper right corner) and from there I can see subscriptions and signature and all the other control panel stuff in the left-hand-side menu. I did manage to edit my signature that way -- it gave me an error on the way, but it did edit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goldberry Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Search does not seem to be including smaller words (specifically noticed this with "7th geography" not including 7th, although some other folks I think noticed it with acronyms as well such as "IEW") Also, if you search with two words, it pulls up either/or, not posts with both. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beaners Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Even single longer words aren't pulling up correctly in the search. Words like Sonlight or spelling will give some results, but there are threads missing. (Always the ones I'm trying to find!) It's nice to have the UserCP back though!

Happy2BaMom Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 I am really missing the old search capabilities - right now, searching for something is next to worthless.

Amy in NH Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I can see that there are 128 posts on a particular thread, but when I open it I can only see the first 36 posts. There is no thingie to select pages beyond the first page I am viewing. This is the second time this has happened to me. Anyone else having this problem? Any ideas how to fix it?

Guest Evarneendoria Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 Is there any way to jump from thread to thread without going back to the main board?

swellmomma Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 I am having a weird glitch that I can't see posts by some poster's even if no one is on ignore. I can see their name and avatar in a thread but the post doesn't show up. The same with pm's. One of the poster's I can't see was able to send me a pm, but I could only read it in the reply box. It did not actually show up normally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4wildberrys Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Is a For Sale post getting a 'Thank you for posting and this message is awaiting moderator approval before being posted' normal or is this a glitch??

cloversandlions Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Is a For Sale post getting a 'Thank you for posting and this message is awaiting moderator approval before being posted' normal or is this a glitch?? I've never gotten that message before and don't see any stickies that say For Sale posts need Moderator Approval. I wondered about this, too, but since I'd not previously posted an item for sale, I wasn't sure what to think about it. Also, I sent an email (presumably to tech support - it was through the "Contact Us" option here) a couple days ago about not being able to leave feedback (for the seller of some curriculum I'd purchased) because every time I'd post the "deal URL", I would get a message telling me that the URL was invalid. A PM to the seller has gone unanswered, and since she had previously been so quick to respond, I wonder if there is a problem with the PM function.

Sunshine State Sue Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 I wonder if there is a problem with the PM function. I don't think there is a problem with the PM function. I'll PM you in a minute. I believe there is a problem with the email option, though. Try to email me. If you don't know how, just click on my name and select email.

Mynyel Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 My posts will not come up in a search! I don't know what I am doing wrong but when I search for my post, especially in the for sale forum, my posts do not come up. Why don't they come up? :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaillardia Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 (edited) I tried to click onto a page and was given the blank page telling me that Well Trained Mind had a database error. I logged off and got back on with no problem. I've had it happen two more times in just the past five minutes, and it tells me that WTM will be notified.
