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.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By rei.b · Posted

      So far 3 months in - worsening symptoms. I have had the worst constipation in my life and I am primarily eating naturally gluten-free foods like potatoes, eggs, salad with homemade dressing, corn tortillas, etc. I hate gluten-free bread and pasta so I don't eat it. Occasionally I eat gluten-free almond flour crackers. As stated in the post, I don't have any vitamin deficiency. I was already tested.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Talk to your  Talk to your provider about testing for vitamin and mineral deficiency.  celiac disease causes malabsorption and eventually malnutrition.  Especially vitamin D. Having the gallbladder removed seems to be a common step on the way to a Celiac Disease Diagnosis,  Gallbladder is a sympton of deficient Choline. Eggs and red meat are the primary source..Choline makes up a majority of the bile salts.  The bile gets thick, doesn't get enough into intestine to digest fats well.  Can eventually back up into gallbladder, cause gallstones.  Without bile, bowel movements can become hard. Try to avoid all processed foods while you are healing, The gluten-free foods are not fortified with vitamins and use various ingredients to mimic fat that bothers many Celiacs.  Choose vegatables with low omega 6.  Optimum omega 6 to omega 3 ratio is less than 3:1.  Wheat flour is 22:1.  Grass fed milk is 1:1.   Commercial Dairies milk is 5:1.  They feed wheat, rye and barley Gluten as part of the food mix.

      Your DGP-G is also high. The thing to do now would be to trial the gluten-free diet for a few months to see if there is improvement in symptoms.
