I am beyond frustrated! This forum does not work in Chrome. It kept sending me a circles. I finally figured out that it works in Explorer only to lose a whole post when I hit something (space bar, enter, who knows?????)

I'll post more when I'm in a happier frame of mind. I was excited about the new format, especially the ease in posting pictures, a little unhappy about the loss of the ticker, but hopeful that it would soon be back. Now I don't know. I'm going to go with cautiously optimistic that they will work out the bugs.

Meanwhile, it is good to be back!

Im frustrated 2.Couldn`t find the website.
Hope all are doing ok.

Hello all: A little confused by this new format. Going to take some time to work things out. Maybe my DD can help me while we are together in Portland. I am looking forward to the trip and spending time with her. We had some people walk through the house last evening. Yikes! That made me anxious. Well now to see if this posts. Sue in SD

so the tickers don't stick. Boo!

Sylvia: I love your pot! It is lovely.

Cynthia: I copied the url for my ticker onto the word document I use for posting and saved it there. It should show up anytime I post using my saved word document, but I don’t think it will show up otherwise.


I agree with all who are unhappy with the size of our photos along the side. They need to be bigger.

I had a frustrating time logging back in this afternoon after finding our group this morning. I ended up putting the name Women 50+ in the search window. I haven’t discovered how to bookmark it yet. Has anyone figured that out?

I did some horseback riding helmet research. The Net Wisdom is that I need a helmet that is ASTM approved and it needs to fit my head, so I need to go to a reputable store and try them on. More expensive is not safer if both helmets meet ASTM criteria. That makes sense to me. Those of you who are experienced horsewomen, please let me know if I’m off the mark and mistaken about this. I plan to go into Portland and look for one tomorrow.

October Goals:
1. Log every bite and swallow.
2. Cardio exercise at least 3 days a week.
3. Have fun every day.
4. Drink at least three glasses of water daily, preferably more!

Katla the bookmark is the star by the title of the forum at the top of the page. Click on it and it turns yellow. This topic is now bookmarked for you. You will notice a gray bell, star and cog in the upper right hand corner of the page across from Message Boards click on the gray star and your forum topics will appear. If someone post a message after you will notice a number by the bell you can also click on that to get back to here, too. I have been experimenting with the new format on and off most of the day. It is like anything else new some things I like others not so much. Some things are lost in translation like the access to profile pictures to change the forum picture. Above post. The edit feature takes getting used to too.

Still working out the ticker.

DrKatieBug - I'm using Chrome and it is working well. Let's hope I didn't jinx myself by saying that...

For those for whom Chrome works, did you have to sign in to the community separately? It told me I wasn't signed in. When I signed in I was sent right back to my homepage to be told to sign in again on the Community page. Round and round in frustrating circles. It worked perfectly in Explorer without signing in twice. Now I'm on my iPad. I was once again told to sign in again on the community page, but it brought me back to it and let me post. I'm ticked that Chrome works for some but not for me. My computer operating system is Windows 8 if that makes a difference. trying to be patient but feeling picked on (not by y'all, by the new message board!)

My fitbit flex is not working right and I don't know what the lights mean. When I tap it, instead of showing me the regular progress lights, it flashes two lights spaced a ways apart, then two lights farther to the right, then back to the left, and so on. Does anybody know what this means or how to fix it?
