OK . . . got it . . . you have fallen out of the "standard" viewing mode.

To change (and this is what took me a while . . . I had to go find it . . . :P)

Go to your name in the green box at the top of the page.

Click on the arrow to get the drop down menu.

Click on My Settings.

On the page it takes you to, select Forums (in the gray header bar)

From there, scroll down to Topic Display Mode and select Standard.

Don't forget to Save Changes.

I don't have my name or the green box at the top of my page. In fact I was wondering how one logged on and off now, because there is nothing there :o So how am I able to post? I was logged in as anonymous at the time the board changed :huh:

Am I going MAD!!

I can't seem to find a way of making all forums read.

So that when I come back next time only the lastest posts are displayed ??

I am slowly figuring out the new format. I would also like to know how to mark all forums as read. Thanks!!!

I am slowly figuring out the new format. I would also like to know how to mark all forums as read. Thanks!!!

To mark all forums as read, go to the bottom of the page where there is a dark blue strip with English (USA) written on the left hand side. Immediately under this blue border are the options for

Mark Board as Read

You can also mark the individual forums as read by going to the Forum Home Page and clicking on the Blue cube icon before each forum's name.

Just a few questions?

How can i scroll all new messages in all forums that I didnt see before?

How can I mark all messages as read?

Is there something (without subscribing to email) a way to have threads marked that I replied too?

Generally, with the old format, I liked to scroll through all new topics and headers and just read the ones I had some interest in.

All the topics categories were available at one time and I didnt have to go back and forth to main menus. Is this still possible?

Thanks Ken

Thanks, found it although on my mac its on the left side. Maybe it depends on where one is within the new system as to where the button shows up. Last night I found mark all read but cant find it now. Its going to take some time.....

I'm an old dog, do not like change. If it takes up less usage, fine otherwise put it back. lol

What is driving me nuts is when I go from an email notification to the site, I am put to the top of the posting and have to page to find the newest addition.

I miss seeing the geographical location of the members...sometimes it helped prompting a reply as to availability of products, restaurants, doctors, etc. in their area.

My resolution for this year is to figure out how to connect my photo to my screen name. Wish me luck!I will throw out my copy of the old instructions, and now search out new instructions.

Oh I didn't notice that was gone. I liked it too.

Forgive if this has already been asked here: Is there an easy way to see which of my subscribed topics have new posts I have yet to read?

RiceGuy Collaborator

Well, it looks nice, but it's way slower than it used to be. It's like going back to dial-up! There was also an unresponsive script, but I guess/hope that issue has been resolved, as it didn't appear this time.

Fix the sluggishness, and it'll be acceptable.

But I see every topic is still pinned :rolleyes: Kinda makes polls useless, as they don't stay on top, and quickly get buried out of sight. That is unless the new format has some option specifically addressing that. But why pin everything? Basically negates the very purpose of the feature.

Well, it looks like I am going to be logged in here for the rest of my life--and beyond :huh::blink:

I have no way to log out (or in, if I weren't already "in") B) You guys are stuck with me!!! :lol:

There is no log-in feature on my screen, no name bar showing I am here, and retyping the URL and coming in through the front door instead of the back doesn't change anything. So here I am forever!!

Works for me, Shroomie! :D

My username with a Signout and Help feature are in a smallish green box on the right hand side of the screen imbedded in the same blue header that has the big grey Celiac.com with the modern-looking circle/slash thru the wheat thingy/icon.

There!!! Does that make it clearer??? :lol::lol:

Works for me, Shroomie! :D

Ditto. :D

Meh, I'm lukewarm on it. Too much white space (which makes it hard to read on my phone or laptop). But such is the way of web2.0+

It's just a way to display text, and works fine to that effect, though. There's no pleasing everyone on aesthetics. :P

Hi Everyone...thank you for your comments. I hope everyone has figured out most of the issues that have been posted here so far, and if not perhaps we can compile a single list here with all issues that are unresolved, or things that look like bugs? Any takers?

Unfortunately there is no going back to the old skin (look and feel), as it will not work on the new board software, so this is what the new look will be for some time--I'm sorry if some of you don't like it, but I've actually had far less backlash switching to this look compared to when I switched to the old board look several years ago. Anyway, it is my experience that you can't please everyone when making changes like this. Hopefully everyone can get used to the new look, and perhaps those who feel it is too bright can dim their screens a bit, as that should help.

Take care,

Scott

PS - I think the way to mark all posts as read is on the bottom-left--there is a "Mark Board As Read" link there.

Take care,

I don't like the green.

Please, please help. It used to be that I would view topics so I could see which topics had replies I had not read. Now, I have no idea how to access this. The topics portion on the lower right side does not have anything to indicate which topics have new posts and which do not . . . at least not that I can see. I hope I am wrong.

Sorry, but I find this site VERY user unfriendly at the moment . . . so much so that I am considering going to another site altogether for info, products, etc. Augh.

      Your experience with gluten is actually not unheard of! Some people with non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) or even celiac disease report an initial ‘honeymoon phase’ during a gluten challenge, where symptoms temporarily improve before worsening again. This could be due to your body adjusting or even a temporary immune modulation. Since you’re only 2.5 weeks into the challenge, it’s possible more symptoms could reappear if you continue. Celiac testing (bloodwork and endoscopy) is most accurate after a full 6 weeks of gluten, so sticking with it for now is wise. That said, your joint/tendon issues (especially the Achilles stiffness) are interesting—they can be linked to celiac disease or other autoimmune conditions (like rheumatoid arthritis or even reactive arthritis). Have you been tested for celiac antibodies yet? If not, that’s the next step. If the tests come back negative, NCGS or another immune-related issue (like FODMAP intolerance or mast cell activation) might still be at play. It’s also worth noting that recurrent miscarriage and elevated liver enzymes can be linked to celiac (it’s often underdiagnosed in women with ‘atypical’ symptoms like yours). But if celiac is ruled out, a rheumatologist or a gastroenterologist who specializes in immune-related GI issues might help explore other possibilities (like Hashimoto’s, Sjögren’s, or connective tissue disorders). Hang in there—it’s frustrating not to have clear answers, but you’re doing all the right things by paying attention to your body and pushing for testing. Keep us posted on how the rest of your gluten challenge goes!

      Hi there @Pamp8  yes I've had dermatitis herpetiformis and a negative test for celiac and a negative biopsy. I had stopped eating gluten before taking the test.  I have had an inconclusive genetic (?) test.  I developed the same all body rash.  It was one of the worst experiences of my life and I am sorry you're experiencing it.  What helped me: 1). I stopped eating oats of any kind. 2). I also took some anti-biotics that were not prescribed for dermatitis herpetiformis but I read they could help. 3). Salty food exacerbates it for me.  Now I have a small flare up any time I get cross contamination like from french fries or a shared grill at a restaurant but it's not as bad as it used to be.  Wishing you relief soon. 
    • trents
      Welcome to the forum, @Pamp8! As to your first question, it is possible to have only the epidermal form of celiac disease but it is not common. Most people who have dermatitis herpetiformis also have damage being done to the villous lining of the small bowel.  As to your second question, most likely you are getting some gluten contamination from an unknown source on occasion that you are unaware of and are not suspecting. It could be something like in a medication or supplement you are taking or an oral hygiene product you are using or a spice you are using in your cooking. You might also look into a low iodine diet as iodine is known to exacerbate dermatitis herpetiformis. As to your third question, many who suffer from dermatitis herpetiformis find it is a stubborn problem and difficult to completely control.

      I'm new here, although in the past I know I've read some of the messages.   My doctor and I have long suspected that I have celiac. I have several other autoimmune illnesses. But, my celiac biopsy was negative, so I started eating a lot more gluten.  Over the last several years, I've had minor bouts of an extremely itchy rash that I was correlating to gluten, but it wasn't very bad and would improve in a short amount of time. Last year, I had a bout that was a bit worse, but it went away rather quickly, so I didn't think too much about it. Fast forward to this year. I have had a REALLY BAD case of it, for a few months, so I went to a dermatologist, and she diagnosed dermatitis herpetiformis without a biopsy. It was pretty obvious to her that it is dermatitis herpetiformis, but she said that if I wanted her to, she would do a biopsy. She said that I have just become more sensitized over time. She prescripbed Dapsone gel, which helps a lot, but I run out of it long before I'm eligible for a refill. So, I am going CRAZY. It is on my arms, legs trunk, everywhere, and it itches like chiggers. If I get even the slightest bit sweaty, it is so unbearable. I've been 100% gluten free since April, but it keeps flaring up. (I've been under intense stress, too.)  My questions are:  1.) Do many people have celiac without a positive celiac biopsy?  2.) How long will the dermatitis herpetiformis persist, even though I'm 100% gluten free? 3.) Is my story a common one? Thanks so much!

      P.S. I also suffer from Meniere's and Hashimoto's thyroid disease, osteopenia since 40 y.o. These all were diagnosed before the Celiac Disease! And I believe it is all interconnected.
