Hi.  This glitch has absolutely nothing to do with the layout changes but we will look into this.  Perhaps you could send me a PM?

Hmm....  I just got a PM with a link to the forum homepage with no popup.  Then I clicked the message link at the top of the page, which took me to the PMs.   I have never seen any popup myself and I am not blocking popup windows.

No popup!

I logged off the forum and closed the page before clicking on the link.

Missy, you can send me a PM! I'll also send you one.

Missy, thanks for the info.  I never checked the 2 options of notification.

I noticed that you have both options checked.  By checking only the former option I am taken to the PM board.  I will now try again with both options checked, so please send me one or two more PMs  ;)

Thanks.

I have both checked, but the OK button on the now workibg pop-up window doesn't open the message box.

OK

Next question:  Which browser are you using?

First of all it is not a feature of the MM site.  It is a feature of the YABB forum software.
Second, sometimes it matters which browser you are using in order to activate a feature of a website/web software.  Really.  Although it is propably not the case here.
I tried this feature and it works for me.  With Safari.  So I really cannot tell why it does not work for you.  But believe me.  Our work on the forum layout has NOTHING to do with this feature.

As I said in an earlier post I've only tried this feature with the first checkbox checked.  I still have to try it with both boxes checked.  So I  am waiting for another PM to do the final check.

Thanks Missy for the last PM.  My popup took me directly to the PM box with both opions checked, so this feature is working perfectly for me.

My bet is that this has something to do with your settings in Safari preferences.  Try to empty the Safari cache and then restart Safari.
