I sometimes have to log in 3x when I try to post. I write the text, try to post - and it says log in. So go back and do that. Save my text. Then redo it, and try to post and then it says 'log in'. Just a while ago I did it 3x :blink:

I don't have any problems logging in, apart from the first day after the switch, where it took me a few minutes to work out I had to log in under my email address, and not username.

I have been looking into a few people's profiles, and I was quite surprised to find out what sort of imformation is in there, as in the last person to have visited etc etc, and to me it feels like I'm invading someone's space, but at times it is nice to know a bit more about the person posting in a thread. But in hindsight I don't mind people going into my profile.

Also in the profiles, we are given a rating, how is that managed? Who gives us as posters a rating, is it other posters or the moderators? Just curious.

I use Firefox as my browser and can go into Tools->Options->->Privacy->Passwords->View Saved Passwords

then find www.glutenfreeforum.com and delete it. Then when you log in next time it will ask you if you want to save it. The reason the log in problems are happening is because your User Name is saved instead of your email, which is the new log in method for many reasons--way too many people forget their User Names.

Take care,

Scott

I guess that's what happens when you deal with a bunch of people who are susceptible to brain fog! :P

That is precisely why I just use my name for my user name. Hopefully I won't forget that. :blink:;)

No, you're not. Scott mistakenly showed to go to 'Privacy', but you need to click on 'Security' instead. That will bring you to a window where you can click on 'show passwords'.

Scott:

I was curious about the "rating" with the illuminated stars, in a members profile. I did not get passed my profile, much. Well OK, I looked at a few. What is the criteria for the rating?

AND ALSO.... I posted this in the recent past. You need to publish a cookbook with all our gluten free recipes from this forum, to support this forum. We need to give back. If you can work it out, we will be there and glad to contribute.

Ooh, I agree with the cookbook! I'll provide my pancake recipe and my cheater-pizza instructions. If one is printed, I'll even buy one!

Got a question:

I have received several e-mail notations that someone has put ME on their friends list. Do I need to approve this? I changed my selection to "receive, pending approval". How do I accept my friends, and how do I add friends to my list.

I do not see a way to create my own "friends list".

Help :blink:

BTW: Speak SLOWLY and ELEMENTARY I have attempted to use this computer as a boat anchor many, many times.

:lol::lol:

I just accept whoever want to add me as a friend, but......see if this works.

Click on My Friends. Another window will open where it shows your friends. You have two other tabs, one says Friends Pending Approval and the other says Mutual Friends. Go to the Friends Pending Approval and see what that says. I can't help you definitively as I don't have mine set to that. Mutual Friends would be those where you both have each other listed as friends.

To add friends you can either move your mouse over the posters name in a thread, click on the arrow and choose add as friend; or do a member search and when that person comes up click on Add as Friend (under the area for personal photo).

You have to "ok" it with email if someone wants to list you as a friend?? :huh:

I havent checked my email in over a week... this means nobody can list me as a friend??? :unsure:

Maybe nobody has even asked me?? :(

How come I don't receive e-mail notification that someone wants to be my friend??? ( If there are any of course!! :lol: )

EDIT: Ok, I checked my email account and it does tell me I am on someones 'friend list', BUT I don't get any notifications?

Nikki and Rachel,

You are both on my friend's list. All I know is that I have gotten email notification when someone has added me as their friend. I have never been asked to approve anyone.

Have you viewed your friend lists, and looked at the mutual friends? You click on mutual friends up in the lefthand corner of your friend's page. That way, you can see who of your friends has also added you as their friend. :blink:

Now, I do have one person who added me as a friend, who I tried to add, but it's pending approval :blink::blink:

Wow....sounds complicated....all the approvals and mutual friend stuff...its over my brainfogged head. :huh:

Will try to figure it out later. B)

I guess I will have to remain "friendless" for the time being. :P

Judy,

I'm thinking anyone can do star ratings.

For instance, go to Patti's profile and put your cursor on the fifth star and click. You should get a message that it's updating (or some such thing). Patti already has five stars but you can see if it will work.

Judy, I dont have the answers. Personally, I dont use the "star" or "friends" features. I dont like to single people out like that and I dont want to accidentally alienate somebody.....so I just havent used either of those features.

Everyone is my "friend" and we are all worthy of 5 stars in my book!! Mango...that goes for you too! :D

Ditto- What is this star thing? I feel like I'm on "ratemyprofessor.com". I am just going to random people's profiles and giving them all 5 stars cuz you all all beautiful to me! Maybe we need the little chili pepper to show who's hot or not :P :P :P

      New Celiac Mama in My 30s

      Hello all! My life in the last five years has been crazy. I got married in 2020 at the age of 27, pregnant with our first child almost two months later, gave birth in 2021. We had another baby in April of 2023 and our last baby this March of 2025. I had some issues after my second but nothing ever made me think, "I should see a doctor about this." After...

      Help I’m cross contaminating myself,

      On the AIP diet, all processed foods are eliminated. This includes gluten-free bread. You'll be eating meats and vegetables, mostly. Meats that are processed, like sausages, sandwich meats, bacons, chicken nuggets, etc., are eliminated as well. Veggies should be fresh, or frozen without other ingredients like sauces or seasonings. Nightshade vegetables...

      When I accidentally consume gluten it compromises the well-being of my heart and arteries. Last time I had a significant exposure, about six months ago, I had AFib for about ten days.

      New Celiac Mama in My 30s

      By tiffanygosci · Posted

      Hello all! My life in the last five years has been crazy. I got married in 2020 at the age of 27, pregnant with our first child almost two months later, gave birth in 2021. We had another baby in April of 2023 and our last baby this March of 2025. I had some issues after my second but nothing ever made me think, "I should see a doctor about this." After having my last baby this year, my body has finally started to find its new rhythm and balance...but things started to feel out of sorts. A lot of symptoms were convoluted with postpartum symptoms, and, to top it all off, my cycle came back about 4m postpartum. I was having reoccurring migraines, nausea, joint pain, numbness in my right arm, hand and fingers, tummy problems, hives. I finally went to my PCP in August just for a wellness check and I brought up my ailments. I'm so thankful for a doctor that listens and is thorough. He ended up running a food allergy panel, an environmental respiratory panel, and a celiac panel. I found out I was allergic to wheat, allergic to about every plant and dust mites, and I did have celiac. I had an endoscopy done on October 3 and my results confirmed celiac in the early stages! I am truly blessed to have an answer to my issues. When I eat gluten, my brain feels like it's on fire and like someone is squeezing it. I can't think straight and I zone out easily. My eyes can't focus. I get a super bad migraine and nausea. I get so tired and irritable and anxious. My body hurts sometimes and my gut gets bloated, gassy, constipated, and ends with bowel movements. All this time I thought I was just having mom brain or feeling the effects of postpartum, sleep deprivation, and the like (which I probably was having and the celiac disease just ramped it up!) I have yet to see a dietician but I've already been eating and shopping gluten-free. My husband and I have been working on turning our kitchen 100% gluten-free (we didn't think this would be so expensive but he assured me that my health is worth all the money in the world). There are still a few things to replace and clean. I'm already getting tired of reading labels. I even replaced some of my personal hygiene care for myself and the kids because they were either made with oats or not labeled gluten-free. I have already started feeling better but have made some mistakes along the way or have gotten contamination thrown into the mix. It's been hard! Today I joked that I got diagnosed at the worst time of the year with all the holidays coming up. I will just need to bring my own food to have and to share. It will be okay but different after years of eating "normally". Today I ordered in person at Chipotle and was trying not to feel self-conscious as the line got long because they were following food-allergy protocols. It's all worth it to be the healthiest version of myself for me and my family. I would be lying if I said I wasn't a little overwhelmed and a little overloaded!  I am thankful for this community and I look forward to learning more from you all. I need the help, that's for sure!

      Thank you for responding and for prayers.  So sorry for your struggles, I will keep you in mine.  You are so young to have so many struggles, mine are mild by comparison.  I didn't have Celiac Disease (celiac disease) until I had my gallbladder removed 13 years ago; at least nothing I was aware of.  Following surgery: multiple symptoms/oddities appeared including ridges on fingernails, eczema, hair falling out in patches, dry eyes, upset stomach constantly and other weird symptoms that I don't really remember.  Gastro did tests and endoscopy and verified celiac disease. Re heart: I was born with Mitral Valve Prolapse (MVP) and an irregular heartbeat, yet heart was extremely strong.  It was difficult to pick up the irregular heartbeat on the EKG per cardiologist.  I had Covid at 77, recovered in 10 days and 2 weeks later developed long Covid. What the doctors and nurses called the "kickoff to long Covid, was A-fib.  I didn't know what was going on with my heart and had ignored early symptoms as some kind of passing aftereffect stemming from Covid.  I was right about where it came from, but wrong on it being "passing".  I have A-fib as my permanent reminder of Covid and take Flecainide every morning and night and will for the rest of my life to stabilize my heartbeat.
