Deang Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 I rarely sit behind a computer anymore except at work - all of my posting is done using an iPhonee 6s. I cannot figure out how to activate private messaging. I never turned it off - I just don't see it anywhere. It would appear that this is the only way to contact a moderator (we used to be able to email people - but I don't see that option anymore either). Using "dark theme", if you copy and paste something in, all text is surrounded with a white background. Thanks, Dean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avguytx Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Hey Dean, if your browser look on an iPhone 6s looks anything similar to my Galaxy S7 (using Chrome), look for the 3 horizontal bars in the upper right corner of the screen while on any page. Press on the bars and, when it opens the "slide out" window, look for the envelope and bell symbol right above "Sign Out". The envelope is the private messages. I'm not on my phone at the moment but the 3 horizontal bars and symbols look like the attached picture. Kip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Chad Posted August 23, 2016 Administrators Share Posted August 23, 2016 Private Messaging is there. When looking in mobile view, tap the menu icon in the upper-right, then the envelope icon. You can send anyone a PM by tapping their avatar, then tapping the envelope icon below the avatar on their profile page. The copy/paste issue is one that I've encountered too. It's because by default when you copy/paste, it preserves any formatting form the source. After you paste, just below the editor field you'll see a "Remove Formatting" link which should remove any of that formatting. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CECAA850 Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Dean, are you on the mobile app or full website? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Chad Posted August 26, 2016 Administrators Share Posted August 26, 2016 That's the "full site" on his phone (the forums use a responsive design that responds to the screen size accordingly, like most modern websites (should) do. @Deang: Have a look now. For some reason, your private messaging was turned off for your account (not something I remember doing - did you request that once?) - Regardless, I re-enabled it for you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deang Posted August 26, 2016 Author Share Posted August 26, 2016 It had been turned off for some time - and was off at the time you made the switch to the new software. I guess this means that users no longer have the ability to control whether they get PMs or not? Thanks Chad Dean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can place individual users on an ignore list but I haven't seen the ability to turn off PM's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you go to your Messenger page (https://community.klipsch.com/index.php?/messenger/) you'll see a link just under the message list on teh left that says "Disable my messenger". (at least, you should) If you were to disable your messenger, and if we have the permissions set up properly, you would be able to re-enable your messenger by clicking on "Messenger" in the user menu in the upper-right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CECAA850 Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 OK Chad, dumb *** question. I've never seen that page you've linked to before. Where exactly is it on the home page? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CECAA850 Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 For some reason I can't do a screen shot but it's probably something I'm doing wrong. I hit alt and print screen then paste on to the message. It shows up till I hit save then goes away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Chad Posted August 30, 2016 Administrators Share Posted August 30, 2016 you don't see it under your list of messages after you click the envelope icon? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 Gosh darn it. Sometimes I don't see the brown on the grey background. That and I always looked at the top where I "thought" it should be. Back on the short bus I go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 I even use the scroll bar right above it and have never seen it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
