      Sorry that you have not had a response to your post, this is not usually a section that other users tend to look at. I see you have re-posted your query in the discussion forum and I am sure you will get a response soon.

      I was unsure if you were trying to get in touch with my colleague Ellen, Myeloma Information Nurse Specialist,…[Read more]

    Hi Stephen

    Thanks for the information. As you may have noticed from other posts we are having a few teething problems with the new site, especially around editing text. I’m working to get these fixed as soon as possible, I’ll post a general update once these have been sorted out.

    I will look into the MM link this morning. If you happen to see…[Read more]

    Hi David

    Can you try editing your post but when the edit box appears click on the tab that says “Visual” at the top right of the edit box. Then click inside the message and make some changes.

    There seems to be a problem with the “Text” tab. I’m really not sure what the point of the “Text” tab is either so I’m looking into removing it all…[Read more]

    Hi Michele

    I have removed the “Participant” label so I think your computer is storing an old version of the site. Can you try holding down CTRL and pressing the F5 key at the same time. This will force your computer to reload the website.

    Regards

    Thanks David. I’m not sure what caused the internal server error. We were getting a few of these when we first launched the new site but I thought we’d got that fixed. I’ll investigate further. Can you try emptying your browser cache to see if it makes any difference? I made some changes recently to the server settings.

    Regards

    Hi Folks

    I have now been able to see the issues with the iPad first hand. The “sticky” pages while scrolling and the edit box not working correctly. I will do some research and hopefully have these issues fix shortly.

    Hi Jean

    Thanks for pointing that out, the new anti-spam software is performing much better than the previous version but a few things still slip by. If you spot any more please let me know.

    The issue with editing posts on the iPad is still present. I am getting hold of an iPad in the office today so hopefully I will be able to experience what is…[Read more]

    Hi Folks

    In order to update your profile picture click “Your account” underneath your username at the top of the page. There is then a link that says “Change Avatar”. Click that and upload a new image. Avatar is just the standard web term for your profile picture. For those who are interested:

    Hi Jean. You’re not doing anything wrong. There is a problem with the website when it’s used on an iPad. We will get this fixed, it’s just taking longer than I would like.

    Hi Folks

    The website has now been updated so it resizes the profile pictures correctly for the forum. Unfortunately I can’t tell who has recently updated their picture and who hasn’t so I don’t want to overwrite everyone’s picture with the version from the old site.

    This means it’s a great opportunity for you to update your profile picture for…[Read more]

    Hi Everyone

    For those having trouble with the Edit function. There are 2 tabs on the edit box, one says “Visual” and the other “Text”. It seems the iPad is defaulting to “Text” which is causing a problem. I’m looking into getting this changed to default to “Visual”. In the meantime you should be able to see the text by changing to the “Visual”…[Read more]

    Well that’s something. Can you try editing your post and see if you get the problem where you can’t see the text you are trying to edit please?

    Hi Helen

    I’m really sorry to hear you’re not having a good experience with the new website. I will be fixing the issue with fuzzy photos and “participant” very shortly but it’s the fact that you are being forced to change your password each time that concerns me most, as well as the scrolling problem. I’m trying to get my hands on an iPad at the…[Read more]
