I know! Im muddling through it right now. I decided to post so I can figure this out. NO time like the present to start practicing! This should be an adventure!! :) Oooo so like the edit feature! Decided to practice it too!!
I bet we can all get used to this! After all, we are WOMEN! We are used to figuring out life and going with the flow! :) I have faith in us! Say it with me WE CAN DO IT!
LOL I almost posted those very words. Thought maybe it was too goofy for early in the morning! Glad you can see the humor! Thought we might need some while nagivating today!
Ok, I'll try to be positive about this! But I really don't like it so far. Is there any way to see all the posts in a thread at once? Why did they change it???
Click the outline view link - it opens a new window that is more like our old board - but it takes awhile to load and then when you click each msg they open in a diff window again.
Sorry about the cl-hat but one of the glitches at the moment seems to be the ability to log out and then back in. It just won't change so I'm stuck as my official self.
But I did want to answer your question. There is a way to see the outline view for just one thread. I'll use this one for an example. This is the address for the first post in this thread as I copied it from my browsers navigation bar:
What you do to see this thread in outline view is to change "...mb/message.asp..." to read "...mb/outline.asp..." AND change "...&msg=..." to read "...&tid=...". The new address should look like this:
For some reason this only seems to work from the first message in a thread. When I've tried it from the 2nd or 3rd, I've either been sent off is cyber space to wander alone or gotton just the replies to the message I was in.
