The new board is terrific - and now I can quit having the DTs and shakes! Another vote for the names if the cost is no more - agree with Wolf who suggested big bold letters explaining how to be invisible. MM - you did a super job!!!
Just tried the edit function - is there some reason why the original message is now all on one line - looing like it will botch up the entire format of the thread?
Second edit - just looks like it will mess up the format - pops up perfectly

OOOOOH!!!!! NOW I see it!!! I didn't realize that little box at the bottom scrolled down, I just thought it was an ad!! That's so cool!!

Thanks again, MM!!

Any last opinions on showing the NAMES, NUMBERS, or NOTHING of the "Recent Visitors" feature?

For new registrants, there's an option:
"Hide from Recent Visitors feature? Yes/NO" so all new registering members have the option to be shown or not. And, as stated above, all currently registered members have the option to TURN OFF this feature through the "my profile" and then "EDIT/VIEW PROFILE" links.

Do we have any other reason NOT to have this as an optional feature and just have the "SHOW NAME OF RECENT VISITORS" in the ON position all the time?

Saludos, MadridMan

I notice that the names are now back. I'm not shy! Actually, I am, but I love it. I vote to keep them now they are back.

Thanks MM - nice to know who is visiting!

I like the names too, keep them visible!

Okay.. The names are back by popular demand.

Question: Is EVERYONE having problems getting "FATAL ERROR"s upon attempting to send Private Messages? I've gotten emails from 2 members and have experienced it for myself. ANYONE care to test it and either send me an email or follow up here? Thanks!

Yup, got that fatal error message. I sent you the text of it just now.

Fatal error message when trying to send;

Sorry, UBB has encountered an unexpected, fatal error. This error is extremely abnormal. Please contact the board administration. The error text is:

Can't open '/usr/www/users/madrid2/cgi-bin/ubbcgi/Members/pm_users/00000002.cgi'.

Permission was denied - please ask the administrator to check the permissions on that file/directory!

The exact error returned by the operating system is:

ARGH!! Yes, seems NO ONE can send Private Messages. Not sure why yet. I've contacted the software company and they should read/respond to it sometime Monday. Sorry for the problem, people!
