Having Issues

attilathehoney's picture

Sorry, but I am encountering some issues with the site. My account is having the same problems as other users where my username is not recognized because it contains capital letters. I've already had to create this account (a new one) because I couldn't even get an email with a temporary password sent to me for my old one. In addition, whenever I try to reply to another user's comment anywhere on the site, my text does this weird word wrap thing and and when I try to press submit it says that I have to specify an author. I have absolutely no idea what this means. Am I doing something wrong? Can anyone fix this problem? I've never encountered issues like this before with use of the site and I would really appreciate being able to use this site again. If anyone could fix my username or offer me some insight as to what the comment reply issue is I would be grateful.

Thanks!

And, once again, if you have a question and you can't fill up a blog post with the question, your question belongs in the forums: www.progressiveu.org/forum

Well, that's kind of difficult to do when you can't even log in, but I will keep that in mind for the future... And my replies are still doing this really weird word wrap thing and starting in the middle of the text box instead of the far left. Is there a reason for this?

And there is an e-mail address you can always shoot an e-mail off to if you have a problem, and it's listed everywhere on the site. I generally respond pretty quickly if you send an e-mail between 2 and 8 MT, and I almost always respond within one day.

I don't see anything different about your replies than any of the other replies on the site. Have you cleared your cache lately?

I looked, but I could never find an email link anywhere to send questions to. Where is it on the page? If I ever need help in the future but can't log in, it would be handy to have it.

The issue isn't how my comments display, it's how I'm having to type them in. While I am typing in my response, the current word that I work on shows up a a line below the rest of the sentence, and when I space over to make a new word it jumps up to where it belongs. When I click on the reply box, the blinking line where your text goes in automatically starts in the center of the reply box. It does this on two different computers where I clear out my cookie and temporary internet files regularly. I've never seen this on any other website and was just curious if perhaps some sort of formatting issue in the site had arisen and whether or not anyone else was experiencing this. I use Firefox as my browser if that helps at all.

The problem was with your signature. For some reason, your signature consisted of a whole bunch of spaces. I went in and deleted them, so it shouldn't be a problem anymore.

As far as your concern about the contact page, I think it's one of the links that's moved over in the footer, so we can't see it. I'm moving it up to the main menu at the top of the page, but for your reference, it's here: http://www.progressiveu.org/contact
