Susan Wise Bauer Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 ...that it will take several more days for the search feature to be up to speed. There is just so much information on this site that needs indexing (over 20GB!) that it's taking the software a long time to get it all done. We thought you'd rather have the forums back with partial search than not back at all. A few other features may also take some time to fully function. But we're getting there. So, welcome back, and pardon our dust.= SWB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

egao_gakari Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 (edited) Whee! I was just checking in and wasn't expecting the forums to be back up yet! Hooray! Question though. Those of us who had both a Forums account and a store account, is there a way to unite the two accounts? I'm logged in under my store account right now because the forum didn't seem to recognize my forum username/password combo, but I like forum anonymity to protect mine and my family's privacy...

This! It won't let me log out of my store account and then log in under my forum name. Hopefully it's a simple thing. Lady Marmalade wants to be Lady Marmalade. Also, the smilies don't work yet. :( 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amira Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Mine posted first with my email address, then it switched to my real first name after I logged out and logged in again. I can’t get it to switch to my preferred username though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cintinative Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 It didn't recognize my username on login but then I closed the window and reopened and there it was. This is my test post to see which name shows up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kassia Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 I couldn't log in at all using my email account and had to do it through facebook. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheReader Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Also didn't recognize me. Created a website account (by accident), switched over to the community page to create that account, said my email was already in use, clicked over to the website side, logged in, then from there clicked the community page, and it showed my user name up on the top. So, hopefully, all sorted and will post with my user name.......happy to be back either way! Hoping my user name shows up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Julie Smith Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 I'm just replying to see how I 'look' when I do. Thanks for getting the forums up and running. :) .....

Mergath Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 I can't log in with my normal account. I tried everything. :( I guess I have to wait for the accounts to merge. I filled out the form.

umsami Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 The light blue was bothering my eyes, but I found out that if you click on "Theme" at the very bottom of the page beneath the Facebook, Twitter, Instagram icons, you can change the theme. The "default" is better for me to see the type font. (In case anybody else is experiencing this.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzanne in ABQ Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Yay! I've miss you guys. I've been trying all weekend, and this is the first time I've been able to get through. I guess it's just slowly cranking through everyone's account. I hope the Signatures come back automatically. Thanks Susan and all you techie people over there in Virginia.
