Larry...check to see how the "Toggle Email Notification for this Topic" is set. Lower left of the post box. I think this is the same as the old "Notify me by e-mail of responses to this post" thing.
When you click on it, it automatically changes the setting, and will tell you that you WILL or WILL NOT receive e-mail notifications.Adams' Apple2006-09-19 15:23:11

Here's something else I've noticed. Whenever I get a notification of a new PM by e-mail, I click the clink in the e-mail, which takes me to a login screen - no problem. I enter my username and password, and the login attampt fails (the info was entered correctly). Multiple attempts do not succeeed. However, I can just click on the link to take me to the forums, and I'm auto-magically logged in and can go wherever I need to.

John, it used to be you had to be logged onto the forum for the e-mail links to work. May be that way again, with the new software?
I never have to log on to this site, unless I log-off.
When I do log on, I simply click the "remember me?" button, and I'm automatically in. IF...I clear my "cookies", I have to log on, also.
I never click on the e-mail links anymore, anyway...it's just easier for me to click on my page 1 bookmark, and I go directly to P/M, if there is a new one....if not, it goes to the active topics page.

I really miss having the "Profile" info on the left side, by our screen names, [/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=Adams' Apple]...
and the "Profile" buttons in the post boxes. [/QUOTE]

The button is gone, but if you click the member's name on the left side of their post, it takes you to their profile.

[QUOTE=greypoupon69]When I do a "Quick Reply", there are 8 choices above the reply box.
But, when I do a "Quote" there are a lot more choices that show up to the left of the message box and above the message box.....hhhuuuummmmConfused
 
On the "Quick Reply" I don't even get an "Insert Image" box to click on. Confused
[/QUOTE]

"Quick Reply" is new feature that is just that...to post a Quick Reply.  If you just want to enter some quick comments without formating or images or anything fancy, it is quicker to use the Quick Reply form.  If you want to add formating or images, etc, you should use the or  or  buttons.  There is nothing to fix here. This is just a new "feature" of the forum that may take a little getting used to.

Thanks.

Adam, something somewhere is hammering the ending HTML tags.  It has been popping up in thread posts occasionally since the new version went in (the above QUOTE is an example).  But where I'm seeing it the most is when someone maintains their forum profile.  More often than not their forum signature is getting whacked, even when they didn't change anything in it - just changed something else in their profile.
