Forum Navigation. Passwords, new features, how to login,etc

[Pat Holscher]

As you all know, we have switched over to a new forum program. This program is quite an advancement over the old one, but it is new, and there may be some things to get used to at first.

One thing that's come to my attention recently is that folks who stop in here, and not in the General Forum, may have missed Todd's email about the new features. I'll link that in shortly, but his original post appears below.

The General Forum Thread:

In particular, note the item about pass words:

Well, have ya'll noticed a change yet?

One thing you will notice is that you will likely have a problem signing in, as this system uses a different password encryption method. Which means that when this database was brought over and converted, the passwords were not able to be converted.

In short, passwords won't match.

The fix?

Below the login area, you will see a link that says "forgot password?" In this case, the system 'forgot' the password, so just click on this link, enter your username (which is case sensitive!), and the email you registered with.

A new password will be emailed to your email address, and you can use that to login - feel free to reset your password back to what you had before, or use a different one.

Pat,
Can you direct on how to load photos on to email messages please,

The easiest way is to to do it this way.

1. Hit the "Post Reply" button with the red letters below the messages, to the bottom left.

2. When the window comes up to type your text, type it. But look below the box where you type, and you'll see a tab that says "Upload Attachment".

3. Where it says file name, hit "Browse". When you find your photo on your computer, hit "Add the file".

4. It'll look like the photo I just did this with, which will appear here in the messages when you finish the message and hit "Submit".
