Not as far as I know.

The system only keeps you logged in for 30 days and then makes you login again. Check your account settings to make sure you have it set to keep you logged in for 30 days.

Mind you, Richard has been doing a lot of work on the site which could have caused people to need to re-login.

Hi Judy,

Well, here's the latest twist on the Phantom photos!

I just went in to post the pictures Karenb sent me for the Jericho thread and a strange thing happened.

I loaded the pictures (two pics), typed in file/file twice and then wrote my description. I previewed it once, then edited some typos and previewed it again.

The second time I previewed, the following URL was on the bottom of the post under my second picture: PapaCall1.JPEG. I don’t know for sure if it was there the first time I previewed or not! Don't Know If it was I didn’t notice it. I wish I had taken a printscreen but I didn’t! I thought for sure it would be at the bottom of my post when I submitted it. Surprisingly, it wasn’t. I then went into edit mode and previewed the post again but the URL had totally disappeared. I resubmitted and the post was as it should be.

I scrolled up the thread to see if it was the name of one of the photos previously posted and when I got to the top of the thread this is what I found!

The post is by Keta and is the first one in the Jericho thread![

I don’t know if it belongs there or not but I’d give you good odds it doesn’t!! The question is where did it come from??? And how did it get from the preview in my post to someone else’s post???

I am going to see if I can find where it came from.

Well, it didn’t come from my computer this time! I know I have seen it before but don’t remember where.

As Alice said, this gets “curioser and curiouser”

Good morning slygirl and thanks for the coffee ! giggle

The token failure comes up if you take too long to make a PM or if you've failed to add something in the subject line.

If it happens when you're trying to SEND the pm then try the submit button a second or third time if necessary and it will usually correct itself.

Thanks Judy Left thumb up Sorry about the donuts!

So...if I plan on composing a PM on one page, writing an email on another, watching a cam on yet another page, listening to the news and doing the dishes...I'll need to prioritize :blink: Got it Wink I've forgotten a 'subject' now and then, and 'it' does tell you that!

Now...I wonder what is 'too long' - I've been known to go on (and on!)! Do you mean if you wait too long to hit send?

Thanks again happy

Hi Sly,

I am greeted by that quite often as well. If I wait a few seconds (so I don't 'spam' the system) hitting send again will usually work. Just copy the post to your clipboard first in case it decides to zap all that effort to nowhere Whistling
