I see the board is back! Yay! Had some trouble logging in, though...seems that it's gone back to user name instead of email addy?

We just upgraded to the latest version which was an all-night event for me. I actually began yesterday at about 2PM and was supposed to take about 1 hour, but we had some problems. Anyway, I do not know all of the features, but there are supposed to be a lot of them. I hope everyone like it.

Take care,

Scott

I got confused with the username too....don't feel left out :) I have my self as constantly logged in at home, so a few weeks ago I finally figured out to use my email addy, this morning it took a good 5 tries before I saw it said username...I blame it on the rain

I've got my browser set to remember logins, so it remembered that it used my email address. Today the board didn't recognize it. I needed to use my username instead.

I'll have to explore around and see what's new. :) I have noticed that the board layout doesn't look quite right in Firefox for Mac though..."Blogs" is bumped down out of the menu.

Michelle

Edit: I've since tried it in Safari...looks perfect, but the browser is slower than molasses (I think the last Safari upgrade screwed it up,) so will have to stick with Firefox for now. I checked the login info again too...seems it wants you email address to login on the front page, but username when using the "login" page.

Wow, going to have to explore some.

I had to log in using my email address. Haven't had to log in for about 4 months now since I switched to DSL.

I had 3 people contact me to find out if I was having troubles getting on. :ph34r:

I must have a reputation for being on here all the time. :lol::lol:

Seriously though, I have been cutting back my time. :D

Hey, Scott,

Can you set the board up so that folks can long on with either their email or their user name? I've seen this done on other boards.

Spell check.....hoorah!

I found that, but I think that I need a users guide for the rest of the new stuff :unsure:

Thank for all your work Scott, it is much appreciated.

Spell check? Is it automatic? Will it allow Canadian spelling, like neighbour, colour, etc? :P

I have a simple observation. In my humble opinion, the "Top" button is waaaay too close to the "Report" button. I feel that is would too easy to accidentally hit "Report", when intending "Top", causing issues for the Monitors.

I too found I could not enter the site yesterday. I always think its me doing something wrong but I knew the site must have been down .. Now, here we go again learning all the new stuff......

Thanks Scott for keeping this site up & running... I would be lost if you ever stopped... This site is my lifeline to celiacs as there is no close-by support group.

Thanks to all the posters who have helped me out with info ...

It is on the upper right after you hit reply. I am not sure that it is activated. When I click on it it shows a little hand :unsure: If someone know about this, please post. I'm still reading "computers for dummies".

Everytime I click on "ABC-check", I get a pop-up blocker alert. Help anyone?

I didn't realize that there was a spell checker but am happy they added it (where is it?). Perhaps someone should start a "New Board Features" forum to discuss how to use the new features...as we figure them out...

Take care,

Scott

I'm not seeing a spell check button. Hmmm, I wonder if it is browser specific? I'm not seeing it built into the board though.

The pop-up blocker is an alert from your browser. Which one do you use?

I'm not really noticing any new features, but that may be because I put in my own BB Code rather than using the preset buttons. It would be nice if someone could start that new thread and walk us through the new stuff!

This is strange.... I clicked "add reply" and I see it currently in the upper right. When I click on it, a pop-up come up , "ie Spell Not Detected. Click OK to download page"........so what the heck does that mean. This has also has unabled, MY computer spell check. It obviously is not working properly.

Wow. I haven't been on for a while, and had to use my email to log in even though the prompt asks for username. I did see though that the field says "email address", but since I have my browser set to remember the log in, it replaces it. That may be why some have more trouble than others.

      Waiting on biopsy after positive bloodwork, but also not really believing this is real

      By Alibu · Posted

      I was tested back in 2017 and my TTG-IGA was mildly elevated (an 11 with reference range <4) but my EMA was negative and biopsy was negative. Fast forward to 2 weeks ago where I was like y'know what, I still have so many symptoms and I'm always so sick, I should repeat this, thinking it was not going to be positive.  I also found out through 23 and me that I do have the HLA-DQ2.5 gene so I thought it would be good to repeat given my ongoing symptoms. Well my blood work came back with a ttg-iga level of 152.6 with a reference range of <15 and my EMA was positive and EMA titer was 1:10 with reference range of <1:5. I guess I'm nervous that I'm going to do the biopsy and it's going to be negative again, especially since I also had an endoscopy in 2020, not to look for celiac but just as a regular 5 year thing I do because of all my GI issues, and they didn't see anything then either. I have no idea how long the EMA has been positive but I'm wondering if it's very recent, if the biopsy will show damage and if so, if they'll say well the biopsy is the gold standard so it's not celiac? I of course am doing all the things to convince myself that it isn't real. Do a lot of people go through this? I think because back in 2017 my ttg-iga was elevated but not a huge amount and my EMA was negative and my biopsy was negative, I keep thinking this time it's going to be different. But this time my ttg-iga is 152.6 with reference range <15, and my EMA was positive. BUT, my titer is only 1:10 and I keep reading how most people here had a ttg-iga in the hundreds or thousands, and the EMA titer was much higher. So now I am convinced that it was a false positive and when they do the biopsy it'll be negative.

      Welcome to the forum, @linnylou73! Are you claiming this based on a reaction or based upon actual testing?

      Helping child go strict gluten-free and concerns about growth/height

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This varies a lot from person to person. I include foods that are not certified gluten-free but are labelled "gluten-free", while super sensitive people only use certified gluten-free. Both types of products have been found to contain gluten, so there are no guarantees either way: It you are in the super sensitive group, eating a whole foods based diet where you prepare everything is the safest bet, but it's also difficult. Eating out is the the most risky, even if a restaurant has a gluten-free menu. I also include items that are naturally gluten-free, for example refried beans, tuna, pasta sauces, salsas, etc., which have a low overall risk of contamination.
