bugs in the new forum

It might not be anything, but just in case, I thought I'd report an issue I just had in case it starts happening more often (it could have been coincidental, if something was being worked on the moment I posted it).

Someone posted a note to me on my profile wall, and I had no trouble clicking "View Conversation" and writing a reply to him. The problem came when I tried to post it. It claimed there was an error, but didn't list what the error was. I clicked "Okay" which cleared the "there was an error" message and the "Okay" button (those appeared above the field where I'd typed my reply). It didn't seem as if anything had happened because my reply was still sitting there waiting to be posted, so I clicked to post the message again and got the "you must wait 30 seconds before posting again" message. I checked the person's profile in another window and saw that my message had actually posted.

Sorry I don't have any screenshots... I didn't think to get one while I was checking things to see if I could get it to work.

And here is the 2nd part of this post... more of a question. I'd noticed it before last week or so when I posted a message on my husband's profile wall. It says that our messages are moderated along with our note. Is that going to stay?

It's started adding the 1 New Post thing again in the User CP section. Fortunately "Mark Forum As Read" clears it out.

I've seen it alone (when there aren't any new posts) as well as added to real new posts (for example... when there are actually 2 new posts, it shows as being 3 new posts). It seems to come and go for me, so I'm not sure if it's just hiccuping when changes are being made to the forum or not.

Hope this helps.

This has happened to me several times ...

In the top Navigation Bar, some of the writing disappears, but when the cursor is placed over where it should be, it suddenly shows up.

Right now, I cannot see Meet the Staff, Community, New Posts, and Quick Links.

Steve... there is no 'blinking envelope' when I have a new PM.

Okay, it has happened again -- Meet the Staff and New Posts aren't visible until you put the cursor over them. This only seems to happen on the computer in the clinic, and not on my laptop in the hotel. I looked at the monitor at an angle, and it appears that the words are there, but they are black, not white, which against the dark bar is not visible. It is a mystery! Is anyone else noticing this?

When I'm on the Home Page, if I click on my name in the upper right-hand corner to go to my profile I get "Ooops - this link appears to be broken." This error only occurs on the Home Page, on any other page the link works fine.

When I try to assess the second (or third or fourth etc.) page of a thread it doesn't work. The second page blinks on for less than a second then reverts to the first page of the thread.

Help! Very annoying!

I know where to find the today's birthday but whereas the old one would show "none " the new one simply does not show anything. Is it guaranteed that birthdays always appear when there is one?

Just want to make sure that the box does not appear because there are indeed none to celebrate rather than a sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't situation.

Not really a problem but the number in 'New posts' varies wildly between visits and seems to have no correlation with actual posting.

It may be my computer or its operator, but for the last day or so the web page does not fit on my screen. The last couple of inches on the right hand of the website are missing from the screen and I have to scroll across. Are others having this problem ,or is it just me?
