Scott had a great suggestion--we have this nice new board with lots of features that some of us may not be familiar with.

I know I have a few questions--one being about the spell-check. I'm also wondering about the "friends" feature.

Ask away--let's all help each other figure this thing out :D

This is a great idea!

I have one question, which regards viewing new posts. So far, I only know how to access *all* the new posts. But I don't know how to get to a listing of new posts in only those threads that I have a discussion going it. Sometimes I don't have time to check all the new threads, and there are a few discussions that I have lost track of, don't know how to find again, but would like to see if anyone has contributed something that I missed. Is there such a feature? Does anyone know?

There is a little box next to the topic, that you can click on to see the new posts , something like "last known view", it was there before the changes....You can see your last known view.

Some cool new features...... Great work Scott!

Just wondering: I can't see now as I am reading threads whether a particular person is "on" or not - is that taken away?

Thanks!

I'm having problems editing my posts....its just not working for me?? :unsure:

Anyone else??

When I hit "complete edit" nothing happens. It takes me back to the thread but my post is not edited and it actually still has my text box for editing on the thread?? :blink:

Why is this happening? If I hit "cancel edit" it will return to normal...but of course nothing is edited. :(

How can I go back and review old threads or posts?? For example if I wanted to locate info. from an older thread I had....I could go into my topics or my posts and find all the older threads or posts. Now I can only view my most recent??

Is there an easier way to go about this or do I have to do a search to bring up older topics??? :huh:

EDIT:

Nevermind...I figured it out. :)

You can access the members topics and posts in their profile...click on options...its now located on the left side of the page.

Hello Rachel,

If you figured it out please share it here with others who might have the same question. The last of the updates are finished and I will look into the edit issue--are others having this issue? My thought is that you if are having issues you may need to clear your cookies out and log back in.

Ok - I just edited this post using the "Full Edit" feature so it looks like that works.

Update--Last night I complete the final upgrade on the board's database that is supposed to speed things up. Sorry it was down again but the upgrade is now completed.

Take care,

Scott

Karen,

You can still see if a person is online. There is now a little head next to a person's name. If it is lit up that person is on.

The friends feature also tell you who of your friends is on at the time and puts all your friends at your fingertips for pm'ing (like the old system).

I haven't really explored too much.

Oh good--I thought that's what the little head meant.

Thanks, Andrea, I was wondering what those little guys were about, and why some of them were in colour, and some weren't.

Hey, I read on some boards that have a "voting/poll" mechanism. Something where you can do something like

"What brand of gluten free InsertProductHere do you like best?"

Product 1

Product 2

Product 3

Logged in memebers can vote, and it then shows a nice graph of the results.

I know those boards use the same system as this one, or at least it basically looks the same. I just don't know anything about how to make that work...

Any one see this before?

You can create a poll by first selecting "New Topic" and then clicking on:

Poll Options Click here to manage this topic's poll

From there you can set up your poll. I believe that this was an option prior to the upgrade as well, but it is seldom used here. You should try it out! :)

The poll feature was already here....but you're right Michelle....noone has been using it lately.

I always enjoyed the polls. :)

How come I have to log in everytime I come back on?? I never had to do this before....I was always logged in and it stayed that way.

Now I have to go through the process each time I come to the board. Anyone else experiencing this? How can I fix it? :huh:

I'm remaining logged in. Had you been here earlier today? The board was unavailable earlier this morning again due to some more upgrade work...I did have to log in again after the work was done, but not since.

I've remained loggged in throughout all the board maintanence. But a couple of weeks ago, I had to suddenly sign in--I don't know why--and then just as suddenly, didn't have to anymore.

I didn't do anything either time, so I'm not sure what the problem could be.

I also have to log in every time now. Never had to before, this site is saved to favorites and I would just click on that. Now, despite checking the box that says "remember me," I have to lot in every time! I am also wondering if it can be fixed? :huh:

Not an expert, but might it have something to do with cookies? ('tis the season)

I haven't had any problems staying logged in....but I haven't been on much since the re-do.

Susan...its still happening to me too. :( My box is checked and I still have to log in. Its not every time now.....its improved slightly so that now its occurring sort of randomly. :huh:

All I know about "cookies" is that I cant eat them anymore. :ph34r:

I never had to log in before the board changes.

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      By catnapt · Posted

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.
