Is there any reason that there can't be a "sticky" where people can go to find out about operational issues, instead of wading through multiple threads by people asking the same questions?

Additionally, is it possible to give some estimate of the time frame for fixing this problem? It has been going on for several weeks and countless threads have asked when it will be repaired. Just give us any info so we can set expectations.

Dunno what that's about. :confused:

Search not working
 
I'm logged on, with "Welcome, ether." but when I try to use the search function it brings me back to the login page and when I login again, it still refuses to let me search. Please help!

Getting to be a pain as I can't search for info about a specific hotel in the SPG forum. :(

When will the search blackout end? :confused:

You may be able to ask a Mod to do a search for you. When this happened a few months back I think Mods were still able to search. Worth a try...

I wouldn't want to burden the volunteer Mod's with a request to pull up an exsiting thread every time I wanted to update the topic with a new item or tidbit of info. I guess the old adage that you never know what you've got until it's gone very fitting as I didn't realize how much I was using the search feature until it wasn't there.

Thanks for the thought, though. :)

I am not able to properly search when logged in as Moderator2, either.

Search hit or miss. Sometimes it works for me, sometimes not.

New Posts
 
Sevaral problems here:-

(1) When clicking on 'new posts' link, I was presented with a login page despite having been logged in.

(2) My subscribed thread no longer post the content to my email account. I've also checked that I have not unsubsribed accidentally.

Any ideas out there to help sort out the issues above?
Any advice gratefully accepted.
Many thanks.

Apparently, no one knows what is going on. Even the Moderators. I wonder if Randy knows everything is screwed up? I am ready to start looking for a better frequent flyer newsgroup or at least one that works. Any suggestions?

We don't want to take the site down for the needed maintenance while the election is still going on, the search/new posts problem has not been forgotten and it will be addressed. Thank you for your patience.

Sorry to keep being the squeeky wheel about this, but enough of the Talkboard elections and let's try and fix the functionality of the site.
