@AbramBaileyAuD I recently had issues with signing in etc, which are now fixed, however I wonder if there is now an issue with security. Once I was finally properly signed in to the forum, I saved it to my iPad homepage as my previous link took me to the hearing tracker main page. Now when I select my forum link I am still signed in. This makes it easy for me, but I am not sure it’s supposed to work like that.

Yes, in general you would stay signed in until your session expires or you log out manually, which you can do by following these steps:

Abram, I’m still not able to reset my password … I tried clicking on profile then preferences…then security… then clicked on send password reset e-mail… I then read you will receive a e-mail shortly waited 20 minutes no e-mail came so I tried again and this time I get an error/???

Check the email address you entered in your preferences and/or your spam folder in your mailbox. For example, in Gmail, forum mail could be delivered to a folder other than the main folder.

Hi, I’ve requested to have you and 2 others removed from our mail service’s block list, but they have not fixed the problem yet. I have also received your emails. I will let you know when things are back in business. Sorry about the delay. Until they fix it, you will not be able to receive emails from the forum. I’ve emailed them multiple times now.

Other Discourse forums, like the Microsoft Flight Simulator forum, have an option for several emoji. The www.f150lightningforum.com1 runs under XenForo software and provides a range of emoji, an indication of who voted, and by clicking on the voter summary, an indicator of each voter’s vote:

I realize some of these options might not be possible or desirable on this forum. Just a thought or two to mull over.

Funny, I tried to make that link unmissable…

I knew it said something like, just click here, but “here” didn’t look like a link, and clicking the word “here” did nothing.

I don’t know how it looks now, but when I was trying to update my password, what was a link looked like ordinary text. For text to look like a link, it should either be underlined all the time, underlined when you hover over it, or it should look like a web address that goes somewhere when you click on it.
