Need to pm you , have forgotten how to do it!!

I think you may mean slow dragon or Redapple?

You can private message others by going to chat function.

Shown by paper aeroplane icon.

Then you use the blue “new” to search for the member you want to message.

Oops! How did I do that, in stitches here - it was Redapple and thank you for replying.

[helvella Administrator in reply to islandlass]

Remember that not everyone, not even admins, are necessarily available within a short timescale.

[islandlass in reply to helvella]

It is a query that can wait till she is available, not a health question but thank you for reply.

Have been doing all of this with no joy. tried other names, some work some don't. I have just tried yours and what is supposed to happen did happen, but not with Redapple and some other names. Odd, cannot explain it. Over to you!

[helvella Administrator in reply to islandlass]

What actually happens? Where does it go wrong? Do you get any error messages?

[islandlass in reply to helvella]

Go to site, press button, up pops a box, start to type name, click on name and press blue button, scroll down to end, no blue box. Tried with outher names some worked others did not. Tried Helvella, it worked, tried Slowdragon it did not, cannot figure it out.

Decided to try again, it worked but Slowdragon not at home, I reckon there is gremlin in the box playing games. Hope this helps.

I didn’t get a message

RedApple may message you

[islandlass in reply to SlowDragon]

I did not send a message, I tried to see if your name would let me send a message , it would not. Tried RedApple again and it worked, cannort figure it out. sorry for false call.

[DippyDame in reply to islandlass]

If you typed "Slowdragon" (as you wrote above) it wouldn't work.....you should have typed SlowDragon.

Similarly.....not Redapple.....but RedApple

Both capital and lowercase letters must be correct!

[islandlass in reply to DippyDame]

You could be right, thought I had typed it correctly but now not certain, thanks DippyDame.

[helvella Administrator in reply to DippyDame]

Not so on my machine!

It is perfectly possible that it behaves differently depending what operating system and browser you are using.

Argh...it's those predictive gremlins.

I guess I'm not gremlin fluent!

Thanks helvella

reckon Sherlock Holmes aka DippyDame has solved the puzzle helped by the redoubtable Dr. watson, aka Helvella. Apologies all round, thought I was going loopy this end.
