voldemort 57 Posted October 10, 2013 Hello, I am unsure if this has been reported but the chat room and individual chat functions have not be working properly for a few days. Seeing chats is requiring a full refresh of the browser no matter if Firefox or IE. Active notification of new chat messages are not working. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GoingforGoal 1,734 Posted October 10, 2013 We're updating the site over the next few days and hope to have any and all issues resolved by next week. That's understandable. But is there a way to post a message on the front page when the site is under construction so we are not just wondering and also have a timeline when improvements will be done. Thanks 5 ☠carolinagirl☠, GuyMontag, JOANNE M HOLL and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks In the near future we most definitely will be much more proactive about letting our members know what's going on etc. It's a bit difficult to do with the system we currently have in place. 3 GoingforGoal, ☠carolinagirl☠ and Debbie3sons reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pictures and PMs on Twitter ? Who's spreading these ridiculous rumors please ? We're upgrading our web site and shut everything (photo gallery, blogs etc) down until the new site is launched. We hope to have it live by the end of this week. We definitely will be making some changes but nothing like you've mentioned above. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alex Brecher 10,515 Posted October 14, 2013 PM's aren't, but blog and posts are being linked into Twitter. I just tested PMs and was able to send and receive. Let me know if that's not the case for you please. We've been streaming all forum and blog posts to our twitter feed for years. We stopped on the 4th of this month and have no plans to continue streaming them again once the new site is launched. 1 DELETE THIS ACCOUNT! reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
