You've not met the FAWTL crew, I take it?

I think Gary is passingly familiar with FAWTL ...

Now that it's been around for a week or so, one kink in the Private Messaging armour is the Reply function. I'm constantly looking above and below the message for a graphic button and can never remember that it is next to the senders name.

Someone send me a PM.

I'm dumb maybe can't figure out how to leave my own thread.

I have a question, Wayfinders Have Resonant powers, So if I make a Crimson Sphere a +6 intelligence enhancement. I rolled on the chart it came up +2 enhancement to Intelligence which gives it a +8 total bonus. Does it stack ?

Please go to the Rules Questions forum, and click the "Add New Thread" link near the top of the page.

At any point will you guys be introducing private massaging?

I think Richard Pett is working on that right now, though it may include tentacles and losing your sanity in either order... ;)

It might be worth it. I've got an awful crick in my neck.

Besides, it can't be much worse than slaving away in the Slime Pits.

Mamy Graul has put in 14 applications since you wrote that post. I think she must be very eager to give you a massage! :D

There's a lot of strength in those potato sack-like arms.

the little envelope icon appears next to my name showing that I have a private message.
But once I've read the message it is still there.

Is there a way that this icon could represent only unread messages and not the presence of messages?

thanks

When I get a new Private Message, a (1) appears next to the envelope and I believe it changes yellow. I could test PM to if you want to check.

The behavior should be that the envelope is completely plain when you have no messages (IE: no colored dot in the corner at all), and showing a red dot when you've received new ones. I've sent a test message to you. Would it be possible for you to provide a screenshot of what you're seeing?

it works as you have described

if you still want a screen shot just send me an email to chopswil at comcast dot net and I'll send you one

[Chris Lambertz]

No need for a screenshot then. If that's what you're seeing it's working correctly :)

Would it be possible to move the 'Reply' link (or maybe just consider it)? Maybe it's how my brain is wired or how I've been trained by other sites, but I almost deleted a message instead of reply because I didn't immediately catch where reply vs delete was.

[Gary Teter]

Reply is now a button so it stands out more.

OLD school reference there. :D Is it possible to disclose where in the .plan sending email for notifications of posts/PMs is?

... or converting it all to Usenet? ;)

[Gary Teter]

Only if your email path includes some bangs.

Also, do not finger Paizo staff (or at least buy 'em flowers first).

Hey, I made a helpful suggestion! Awesome, it does stand out much more now. Thank you Gary!

[Cheapy]

Ran into an issue earlier where I tried my to open a message, but it kept on falling. It would just link back to the PM page, without opening the message.

I wish I could give better instructions than that =/ This was the link. It now works.

When I click 'Reply' nothing happens?
