Is there a setting where if you click on an external link, it will open in a new tab? The old board did that and I like it. Just a nice feature for some of us lazy bastards.

I've always been a "right-clicker" to open things in a 2nd window, so that doesn't bother me at all,,,

I added a couple more styles. Latte is actually pretty easy on the eyes if you prefer something brighter than the black skins, but something less blinding than the default.

Latte is good for me! :)

,,,, though(!), ~ I kind of freaked out a bit when I was taken to the forum via an e-mail notification link I received, only to see a non-Latte skin and asking me for my login info again, even though I had ticked 'Remember me' when you [ FP ] finally got me sorted out. so I closed the browser, and came on to pca via forums link I had bookmarked.

so right now, I can't access forum via link/s in e-mail notifications; I find myself back in the login loop that doesn't let me in.
don't know what to do about it, ~ just letting you know : )

Hmm. I would jut try logging in when you enter via the email link. I think it did the same to me. I think it wants to create a different cookie to remember you coming in that way.

I put a redirect in the old forum folder to the new forum, so if someone goes to http://pcabusers.org/forums they'll end up here.

If you need to access the old forums for some reason, you can still get to it via this URL:

hi FP : )

maybe I wasn't clear,, I do attempt to log in via the email link, but it keeps looping me back to log in.
I can't log in at all via any of the 3 links that show in the email.

I do have PCA bookmarked, and it's only from there that my login is accepted.

And you cleared your browser cache? I tested your links and did not get any login questions/issues.

yes; flushed dns, as well.

~~~

i'll tell you a strange thing, though, ~ since i subscribe to this thread and received email notification of a reply from you, when i opened the email, i said 'what the heck' and clicked on the first link, and it took me to this thread - And - i was logged in (!).

But:

then i closed out the window w/the pca thread and clicked on the same link in the email to see if it would work a 2nd time, ~ but it didn't ( instead, it wanted me to log in ).

it seems to be hit or miss, ~ mostly miss,,,

Sup Danny! Yeah this is the hangout now. We've allowed the Russian spambots to have the Red-Eye BBS. Funny watching them talk to each other.

What u up to?
