Velma, if you get a PM it will appear on the upper left of the forum next to Welcome to Hancock Wildlife Foundation, Velma Flann
It doesn't give you a pop-up like the old forum does which is a bit of a nuisance because getting a new message isn't noticeable unless you're watching for them.

In order to send a PM scroll down in the right side bar and you'll find the message center under the heading Account Settings.

OR go to your 'My Account' in the top bars - Message centre is in there!! :S

I received 2 PM's today, and they didn't show up at the top of the screen next to my name. I only knew because I got an email. If one has to check Account Settings to see if there is a pm, that is a nuisance. Probably nothing can be done about that.

ETA: Hmmm next PM did show up there!!!!!!

Velma, in your Account under the heading Privacy do you have PM Notifications ticked ? It needs to have a tick in it I believe.
If that doesn't work I'm not sure what else to suggest.
Maybe it has something to do with the forum being locked today.

I did have that ticked judy, and I think that's what generated the emails. The first 2 i opened the email, and there was no notification here. The 3rd one, i came right here without opening the mail, and saw the notification at the top. I have now unticked the notification, and will see what happens in the future! It will be trial and error for everyone to start I think, until we know exactly how everything works. no problem for sure:thumrt:

Just thought I would give this a shot.

New icons are cute. :giggle:

Welcome to the new forum Elaine :bye:

Thank you Judy, I feel like such a newbie. :slap: Looking forward to a new look. Hopefully we will get use to it and not loose anyone in the process.
