New users and approvals for the new board

Just to follow up on this, our Hosting Provider just emailed to let me know they believe they have resolved this issue. If anyone using a Yahoo account still is not receiving messages through the board, let me know.

I had the same Yahoo problem, which is really a non-issue.

The one thing that continues to malfunction for me is the Chat Link. When I click it, it just says "Connecting" indefinitely. It never connects to anything.

I had this problem last time (with the initial start-up) but it was resolved after a day or two. Is there any way to fix this again?

Other than that, the site is working great and is running fast..... Thanks!

What browser/version are you using? With most Browsers, if you go to the "Help" menu at the top, there is a link to open an "About" page that has that information.

Matt-

It says: Version 6.0.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2_qfe.080814-1242

Not sure what that all means (or how this fixes the Chat link problem), so any advice you can provide is much appreciated... thanks!

Mark - looks like you are using a very old version of Internet Explorer. The issue you are having with the chat is nothing we can 'fix' and I don't recall fixing anything last time either to allow you in. If you have a different computer at work or at home, try that one and assuming it has a newer browser, you should be OK. Internet Explorer is on version 8 right now and you're showing version 6.

I just heard from a Yahoo user that he STILL is not getting emails from the board so I'm going back to the hosting company - will keep you posted...

I have IE 6 at work and can not connect to the chat portion. So you must need to have IE7 or higher to get it to work.

Mark--you should try Mozilla Firefox. Works great and is more stable than IE (just about anything out there is more stable than IE) and a little more secure. It's free to download and setup similar to IE7 so it should be easy to transition. The current version is 3.0.something. Cant remember off the top of my head. If you have any questions, feel free to email me and I'll be glad to help.

No problem getting into chat here; using Firefox v. 3.1.10.
