I'm not sure that I will be able to fix this , it seems as if that part of the forum has moved into the "pay us for" arena.

I will try and come up with a solution but don't hold your breath ..

  • A couple of weeks ago I sent a few PM messages but received no replies. I figured the other party was either ignoring me (can't really blame them!) or unaware of the messages. Now there's a third possibility. Who knows...?

    Yep , I see you starting a conversation with @schillaz on the 13th September and then the two of you pinged messages back up until the 20th September. You then sent him a message on the 12th and 13th October but no response back from him since then.

    He's not actually been on the site since the 29th September

  • Thanks for checking!

  • We need a new example of how to send and receive a private message using this new software.

    I replied using the link you sent to my email 5:32

    II replied using the PM at 5:34

    I sent you a PM at 5:36

    Everything seems to be working now.

    Okay , I think I understand what may be happening here and it's down to the new software expecting different permission levels to the old so I'll try some tweaks!

    Thanks everyone for your help thus far

  • Paul—-Still not working, If I double click on a member within an existing thread, his profile pops up, I select “Message”, the message pop-up window appears, I write the message, select “Send”, and a screen with a crossed out pumpkin face and failure message appears.
