Is anyone else getting a blank page when they click on "My Forums"? "Unanswered," "Not Read" and "Active Topics" work, but when I click on "My Forums," I just get a blank page. This has been going on for several days now.

"my forums" works for me, but I can't do a "search". Like I wanted to search for posts by a certain member, but I could not get any results to pop in when I entered the search information.

Elias,

You might not be entering the correct name for the search.

Try this. It always works for me. Go to a post submitted by the member you wish to search. Click on reply. Copy the name listed next to "Posted By" and paste it into the search box. For example, to search for your most recent posts the name to use would be Elias_Zone.

Shari,

"My Forums" does not work for me, either. It did work at one time, but it no longer does for me.

It's frustrating, isn't it? Well, I'm glad it's not just me! It used to work for me too and it was so handy to be able to just go there to find my active forums. Well, thanks for letting me know, Cran.

Yes, it is frustrating.

I was thinking that perhaps there was something that needed to be set under the "my profile" link, ut that didn't work, either!

Hello Everyone

I apologize for the state of the forums but I do have some good news for you. We are in the midst of a major upgrade to the software on this site including the forums. Much improved search, profiles, the ability to use a nickname as your viewable name and some interesting features that should make your forum experience much more enjoyable!

Thank you for your patience as we work through the upgrade. We don't have an eta yet but will let you know when we get close.

Regards

Thanks for informing us Carl!

That's great to hear, Carl. You probably are already considering this, but I'd like to suggest a separate thread for recipes so they don't get buried in the midst of other posts.

Thanks!

Hi Carl, Is there any chance there might be (in the future) and interactive website where meals can be input and the block data calculated? Weight Watchers has a very good website that does all of that (for their point system). They charge $15 bucks a month to use it, but if you are dieting with WW it is well worth it. I think it could be very helpful for newbies here at the Zone forums. I get worried about Sue and carpal tunnel! (Just kidding Sue!). Maybe she could partner with Dr. Sears and monitor the website. Wow, I'm so entrepreneurial this afternoon.

LOL! :)

Hello all

To answer your questions there are a number of site upgrades planned including additional tools and community capability. We hope to address the diet aspect of the site with some interesting interactive tools.

Will keep you posted!

Thanks for adding the new posting features!

Carl:

Where are we on the upgrades? My online button is not working anymore. You know the one that rests next to your name? Everyone has a red non-online indication. Is there another forum I can go to to better learn how to use the forums? I don't get around too well in them.

My forums doesn't work either.... and this thread has been created in august of 08!

Either NOT READ is not working toady, or (and I can't believe it), no one posted, today?

There's a little broken image after two threads when I choose "not read". That has happened to me before, and it's a bit annoying. And yes, it's happening for me today too! But this was one of the 2 threads that did show up.

NOT READ threads are now showing up- so possibly no one posted til now.
