Hey Sam; have you lost some weight?
Only kidding😂
I like the changes. Let's see if I can make them work for me.
I searched sporadically for the hidden pumpkins for perhaps 3 hrs. Never found a single one. Sure hope you had better luck.
Loving all the continuous updates to the community!
Very appreciated QOL stuffs
Yup, these updates are extremely nice. Next we await...
Dark Mode! *rubs hands together*
huge bump.
Dark mode is always extremely appreciated
Thanks for sharing
How do I enable private messaging? I do not see the message count or envelope icon and I haven't been able to find where to enable it in my settings.
Hey @soullodolo ,
Here's the steps to turn on Private Messages 🙂
And you should be able to send/receive private messages. Holler if you have any other questions! 🙂
I don't see the Private Messenger Tab though
Hey @soullodolo, that's strange! I went ahead and adjusted some settings for your account on the backend.
Let me know if you see that option now! 🙂
Yes I see the tab now and Private Messenger is already enabled, thank you!
Hi, I am also having the same issue.
I go to My Settings and select PREFERENCES tab but no no PRIVATE MESSENGER TAB shows up anywhere. I couldn't find any pumpkins either so now you know what your dealing with Amber, an old fart!😄😃
I am having the same problem. Private Messenger is unavailable.
Hey @GongTian , that's strange! I adjusted your profile on the backend to enable private messages. Let me know if you still can't see them 🙂
I can see it right now! Thanks for your help!
Hey @Vynski , No problem at all! I adjusted your profile to enable private messages. Let me know if you have any other issues - happy to help 🙂
Thanks Amber. Now refresh my memory; what does private messages allow me to do?
No problem at all! Private messages will allow you to PM other members who have the option turned on. So if you wanna have a side conversation with an individual outside of the discussion boards, you can! I'll send you one as test so you can see 🙂
Having the same Issue, no pm option available.
Sign in. At the very top right hand corner you will see a notification bell, an envelope, and your avatar. Click the Avatar and select the PREFERENCES tab. Then select the PRIVATE MESSAGES tab and check the box to enable you to receive them. Next time you log in you will be able to see how many private messages have been sent and open them by clicking the ENVELOPE icon.
Sorry I left out 1 step. MY PREFERENCES is in the SETTINGS option so select the SETTINGS after clicking the AVATAR.
hello, sorry to bother you but i have same issue i can't see any "private messages" tab
same lol
Hi @YourLocalRyzen777 , @ahmad-hardy , and @Anonymous - sorry to hear you're having issues locating the private message settings! I went ahead and turned on PMs for you - if you go to your settings tab as @Vynski explained - you should see some options there now 🙂 Let me know if you have any other issues!
thank you
I have the Automatically subscribe box also checked. You should have Private Messenger listed as an option. It will be listed between the Privacy and Likes options. If checking that box doesn't help I would recommend that you reply to @amber for help. She will check out your account and change settings if they need be. She has done things like that for me.
Having a similar Issue, no pm choice accessible.
Hi @meer8 , I went ahead and adjusted the settings on your profile so now you should see PMs as an option to configure within your profile settings. Feel free to reach out with any questions! 🙂
hello, i have a question:
how do i send PM's ? someone tried to send me PM but it says "you haven't enabled your PM Option yet" so how do i enable it?
Thanks.
Hey @ahmad-hardy , I responded to you above 🙂 Let me know if you have any issues! You should see the option within your profile settings now.
I was just getting ready to post a reply explaining how to turn on PM's. Like so many things about computers that I have forgotten, I Forgot how to turn on PN's off the top of my head and had to go back and see how I did that. 🤔 lol
