I have stopped having e-mail sent to my inbox from the Yahoo group. Just way too much e-mail to sift through each day. If anyone needs me, they can leave a private message in my forum mailbox or e-mail me directly at rspence5@rochester.rr.com

Well I haven't stopped my e-mail from the Yahoo group, yet... But I agree it is a lot to sift through each day. On here it is a little easier to pick and choose what you want to read and keep up with what you have and have not read. But the Yahoo group is nice for when I have time to be on the computer for a while and be immediately interactive. So I will try to stay with both for now...but I will make sure to go through here if I need to talk with you Spence.

You can always reach me at rspence5@rochester.rr.com. It just got too much for my poor laptop to handle!

Spence,

Are we fully functional now with this forum, as in up and running ready to use, be here a while sort of thing? I'm just getting tired of sifting through the Yahoo group. Hell, I stopped having that e-mail come to me a long time ago.

So no more changes to the forum? The "to-do" list is a "can't-do"?

Naw think those things are "extra" to increase the functionality of the board. It seems to be working fine as is

There are some things though that will grow to be a problem if they are forgotten
These are things that members have asked about -
Individual post email forwarding - CPE TBD

View all unread Threads and posts to those threads in one window - TBD

Seems that the daily digests mailings are not working - I'm not getting mine (RB) 6/20/04 - TBD - Spence?

I would consider this important to keep spammers out, and we will get hit with them eventually. Other option is to deal with the posts as they come up -
In vBulletin Options -> User Registration Options if Verify Email address in registration is enabled, the new user trying to register is sent an email to the email address that they porvided, It requires them to click on a link in the email to verify thier email address. When they do, they get sent to http://64.4.26.250/cgi-bin/linkrd?_...6i%3d983650 56

which is an under construction page. The user gets created but they can only view posts, they can not post new messages. I have disabled this option for now.

Need to FIX the email verification problem - Spence ?

These are items that will be needed more as we grow
Forgotten password link takes user to under construction page - Spence ?

Archive link on bottom of forum pages takes user to underconstruction page - TBD

Yes the forum "functions" as it sits right now, but the yahoo group can "function" with no email notification, and sorting by thread. The forum was presented as being much more and with a little bit more, can be. I just don't want to see the items pushed to the side and forgotten because we are "functional" and comfortable now. Even if a date of within three months is stated, at least the other members know is will be addressed or an answer given on its possibility.
There are others willing to help ya know.
