Raise your hand if...

[cyndi]

you've got your private messages disabled.<BR><BR>Now take that hand and with your pointer finger (either one, it doesn't matter)&nbsp;and click on control panel above.<BR><BR>Scroll down to the "Preferences"&nbsp;menu and click on "yes" to enable&nbsp;&nbsp;a member&nbsp;to send you a private message.<BR><BR>You can also allow members to send you an email without revealing your email (I think)<BR>

Bless your heart, cyndi, for bringing this up!&nbsp;<IMG border=0 align=absMiddle src="https://vanlivingforum.com/images/boards/smilies/thumb.gif">&nbsp; I didn't know how to make that change...and everyone notice that you also need to click the little "Update" icon so your change will be saved.&nbsp;<br><br>&nbsp;I'm still mystified about how to&nbsp;"Operate" the chat corner too.&nbsp; <br>

ah, yes, tinkerbell! couldn't for the life of me figure out what that little ting-a-ling was.<div><br></div><div>i think you just click on the little box in the lower right corner. you can change it to appear "online" or "offline". start typing there.&nbsp;</div>

Yes, you can hide your email from others it says. I double check to make sure I'm able to receive messages. Thanks

Hopefully this 5-year-old instructional can be updated to include people who use a mouse instead...

Raise your hand if your Private Messages is activated, but you didn't know it, and you never noticed the pile of unread messages.
