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:

Not me.. Isn't there a box to check to remember your log in password. Try that.

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.

      Curious question

      So I've been dealing with chasing the name celiac because of my body actively dealing with health issues related to celiac though not eating. Diagnosed in 1994 before foods eliminated from diet. After 25 years with former pcp I googled celiac specialist and she wasn't because of what ive been through. I wanted my results to be sent to my pcp but nothing was...

      Celiac Disease and Longevity: Can Treatment and Healing Improve Long-Term Survival?

      Thanks for the prompt reply. Interesting that blood test could be caused by other things. I am sure Dr Fincher will get to the bottom of it. I know he ate nowhere near that amt of gluten before the endoscope. Always interested in any new info abt celiac. U can not trust what is said on fb- That would be a piece of bread a day. He didn't even make that...

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      So I've been dealing with chasing the name celiac because of my body actively dealing with health issues related to celiac though not eating. Diagnosed in 1994 before foods eliminated from diet. After 25 years with former pcp I googled celiac specialist and she wasn't because of what ive been through. I wanted my results to be sent to my pcp but nothing was sent.I have email copies.I did one zoom call with np with team member from celiac specialist in Nov 2025 and she asked me why I wanted to know why I wanted the celiac diagnosis so bad, I sad I don't, its my life and I need revalidaion because its affecting me.KB stated well it shows you are.I asked then why am I going through all this.I was labeled unruly. Its been a celiac circus and medical has caused anxiety and depression no fault to my own other than being born with bad genetics. How is it legal for medical professionals to gaslight patients that are with an ailment coming for help to be downplayed? KB put in my records that she personally spent 120min with me and I think the zoom call was discussing celiac 80 min ONE ZOOM call.SHE is responsible for not explaining to my pcp about celiac disease am I right?

Its alarming these places are popping up in airports as well.I just saw on the news that the airport ( can't remember which  one)was going to have a fabulous smelling bakery. Not for sensitive celiacs, this can alter their health during their travel which isn't safe. More awareness really NEEDS to be promoted, so much more than just a food consumption!FYI I did write to Stanislaus to let them know my thoughts on the medical field not knowing much about celiac and how it affects one.I also did message my gi the 3 specialist names that was given on previous post on questions on celiac. I pray its not on deaf door.
