Curt,
Here you are giving advice like a hacker.😀 Whoda thunkit.👍. We are all a bit flummoxed by the changes, but coping. I redid my digest preferences and will see at 4PM today if that fixed it. Also hoping my avatar comes back without action on my part.
I like that we can now drag and drop pictures.
Many senior citizens hate change, but it’s good for them.

I seem to remember the same kind of flak when they changed from the original email version back in 2008...just sayin'

Input for whoever is addressing the new format bugs:

Received my first Daily Digest with new format today. With Google Chrome browser, all uploaded high resolution photos are coming through full size (only a small portion viewable unless you download them to see the full photo). Can the former "click to enlarge" capability be added? Also: when viewing the digest the text is not wrapping properly (some text not viewable... runs off the right side). Those two issues are not a factor when viewing the same threads at the Registry's website.

No longer receiving the daily digest.

Change is hard to accept, however not all change is for the better.

It's the left button on the right hand side Emil. Hover over it to announce it.

Curt,

I have not received a digest since the changeover. What is the trick?

Thank you,

Larry,

I was also not receiving the digest. I had to go to the "User Control Panel" and select the "Digest" tab. I found that (for whatever reason) my selection to receive a daily digest was gone. I re-marked the selections and the next day I received my first digest with the new format.

I want to look up a member, but can’t find the member list. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Hi Richard
Quick Links top left
members
and then find members to the left of the alphabet -you will see this. This is much more user friendly than the old set up
Make sure to select sort by username

Bill,

Thank you for the tip, but I am not able to find the "User Control Panel". I looked in my profile and didn't see any option for the Talk Forum controls.

Thanks, Curt. Those links don't work on an iPad apparently, but they do work on MacBooks. So I can find what I'm looking for, but the iPad thing is a bug. As with any software rollout, there's a list of things that don't work as planned. What's the best way to report issues, using the "Contact Us" button?

Bill,

Just found it. My mouse is VERY sensitive in pulling up the underline items.

Thank you again.
