1.) :( The "NOT READ" feature seems to be NOT WORKING! Besides having trouble getting back in after you converted over, now everytime I come in, I try and click on "NOT READ" and NOTHING shows up - even though there are clearly new messages posted since I last logged in!

2.) :doze: ALSO, how come we NOW have to use the full e-mail address to LOGIN instead of just the username?

3.) :crying: AND why does the LOGIN label it as USERNAME when it is not - when it is our e-mail address? It should be labeled as E-MAIL ADDRESS! That would be much clearer and more consistent with general Internet.

4.) AFTER seeing OTHER usernames as NOT e-mail addresses, I went to "MY ACCOUNT" and noticed that YOU transferred my E-MAIL address as my username which is also NOT EDITABLE! THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. I VALUE MY PRIVACY, AND DO NOT KNOW WHY YOU TRANSFERRED MY E-MAIL ADDRESS AS MY USERNAME!

That would explain why I had trouble logging in at first. PLEASE CORRECT ASAP!!!
As this is not an editable field!!!

5.) ALSO, I noticed, that once a post is made, they are not now editable - as they were previously? Is this a new "feature"?

Hi John

We apologize for the display of your email address. This has been changed to reflect first name until we correct the system to use the Display Name in your Zone Living profile. The Display name is editable and can be whatever you choose.

To answer your other questions:

The behavior of the forums is to enable the creator of a topic to edit their own post. If you created a post and cannot edit, please let us know.

With respect to the unread feature, we are looking into the behavior. It may be a transition issue when moving from the old forums to the new.

We hope you enjoy the new forums and the new Zone Living website and appreciate your support.

Regards

Zone Living

I am also struggling with the functionality of the forums. Perhaps part of it is just learning a new system, but it does not seem to be as "user friendly" as it was before. I am also noticing problems with the "not read" function. :(

Also, wondering if I will ALWAYS have to check the box below to be notified of replies? This is a tedious task! :crazy:

I am also not able to edit my message.

And, the smilies are not displaying! See my above message, I used the smilies, but the smilies are not showing.

Itappears that all one can do is to: QUOTE, REPLY, or ALERT on all messages, even our own posts. You said to let you know, so I am.
Thanks.

Hello--

I just wanted to add that I am also STILL struggling with the same functions that John just mentioned.

Hope someone can resolve it.

I think this is fixed now. I can edit my posts and also delete.:(

:)

Just testing to see if the smileys are working yet!

:cool:


I guess they aren't. But, I see I can edit now.

I also see that the "Not Read" function is now working, too!

But, obviously the "quote" function needs some work, too!

MAYBE, I spoke too soon! :O

The "NOT READ" seems to be sporadic. It wasn't working today when I logged in.
???


P.S. AND what happened to "PREVIEW"?
That was useful, and often precluded the use of EDIT.
