How to PM

[cincy_kid]

Just a quick note for anyone trying to PM someone, all you have to do is click on their name or avatar to get the box to pop up. Then at the bottom, click the button that says:

START CONVERSATION

(the call private messages conversations)

Type your message and click send!

(at the bottom of the message there are 2 check boxes, the bottom one locks it. if you check mark this box, the person you send it to will not be able to reply)

Cincy what I am confused about is if you don’t lock it it seems any one can read it??

no one can read them except for those in the conversation.

You may be confusing it with "Profile posts" which is a place people can post things for people, anyone can see those...

Like mine is here: http://www.onepocket.org/forum/index.php?members/cincy_kid.196189/ (some were meant to be PM's but hopefully this helps others for furture refernce)

I don't think it's working, Larry. I sent multiple pm's or conversation starts , or whatever, to you and others, and not a single person acknowledged it.....

I didn't see one to me Bill, did you send it to someone else?

 

[vapros]

No, cincy kid, I didn't send a message. What I meant was I hoped you would post your reply in this thread, rather than in the PM to Larry.

I have received them and replied but for the life of me I cannot get the old ones to change to "read" even though they were all actually read a long time ago. I click the read box one at a time or bunches and nothing seems to change. I must be missing a step. I hope no one asks this admin how to fix that lol

Well I finally now show them as all read! I had to go back and reread them all -- one at a time -- nothing else worked for me. Anyway it was entertaining in its own right Strange, they were from all different dates. So I am guessing I will no longer have this issue, because I do in fact read my PM's lol.

Glad to hear it!

Did you use the method I posted the other day? Worked for me like a charm!

Mark all your PMs as read

I dont know if this will help anyone but I had a bunch of unread PMs showing in my inbox (with a red box and number of unread messages displaying) even though I read them long ago. Instead of going through every message and reading them again, here is a quicker way: 1) Click on your inbox to...
