Hi Stephen, I did some extra looking and found that I have to click on Private messages, on the left and that opens access and then works as you say.
Thanks for your reply.

@roycv you should be able to simply click on the messages that show unread, might need to scroll down to see unread older ones if you have quite a few private messages.

Hi Steven I have 2 private messages but how do I open them? Also there are several messages with a single line and some dots. How do I look at the full message?

Hi Tony,

Just quickly, I see you should be Silver. Got a feeling I know what’s happened. Not your fault. Once I’m home later I’ll restore your membership. No need to do anything.

Thanks,
Stephen

@TonyAsh Hi Tony. You can access past questions in the new system. It is not obvious. There is a previous button at the top. I have done it and did work.

Wharf.. Is actually an acronym WareHouse At River Frontage. An abbreviation used on maps to squeeze in a description.
It became an easy reference to the facility.

Is it me or are these questions getting a lot easier these days - perhaps someone has had a word with AI and he has listened but ATM there is nothing to tax the brain !! Just my opinion - anyone else think the same ?

Hello ship modelers, we've covered this topic in several very interesting threads.

Now, to understand how Stephen (Fireboat) great did, just search for a keyword (which I remembered related to this topic) and easily find all the threads and posts addressing the topic (because the search was done in the texts, not just the titles), even though they were very old.
It was impossible before. There's always room for improvement.

I don't like it at all! Please return to the old format, or at least hold a poll because from what I can see there are more against than for. I haven't been able to find my Harbour or threads that I have followed. Sorry, but I can't get my head round this new format, the old one was well well better...

Hi Ron,

You can change the default sort order to Newest first, that’ll flip things in forum threads so the newest posts are always shown first.

I’ll make this the default later on once I’m home.

Also looking at your screen - far too many ads. I know you’re a basic member, but I think some of those ads are overly obtrusive. I’ll look into that too.

@chugalone100 - what’s not working for you?

Thanks for the screenshots too. I can’t login as everyone, so it’s useful to see what others are seeing.

Thanks,
Stephen

I see EDW has made a response to RonH but here again I am not able to Read and Reply because I get this on my screen and the first message on ghe screen was when Stephen introduces beginning this Question of the Day.
#5676 63
I can understand the frustration of this new site. For instance, in my emails I see this message,
But when I click on Read and Reply I get this screen .

It doesn’t go directly to the person’s comment but instead I have to read through ALL the responses from day 1 to find the comment made by RonH

That’s Frustrating!

The site takes a bit of getting used to but when you do it is great. The site reflects the modern user interface on websites and as technology moves forward features used on the old website stand to stop working.
If you are experiencing lag, check your browser is up to date.
If had issues with performance of my old iPad so I switched over to my new laptop, the difference was fantastic

Sent out a reply on the new Question of the day and no reply. The change to this and the whole website is terrible. Very slow and difficult to move around. Who ever decided to change this should reconsider that they destroyed this site and will be loosing people to other forums that are easier to manage. The old style “Question of the day” had me opening up the site everyday, then once done I would look at other posts. I am sure that no one will answer me on this as it is hard to reply on a individual post🤔😕

What happened to the website? I use to like the question of the day and now it has changed. This helped me everyday to go on this web page and while doing the question of the day I would also look at the forum for information. Bad decision to change and now I will not be looking at this everyday. There are other forums out there and now I will be looking elsewhere 😕
