I just searched this forum for
- Direct Message
- Private Message
- Direct Email
Nothing recent; all hits were two and three, and sometimes twelve, years old.
A circumstance has arisen where direct communication with another member would be highly beneficial, and is totally inappropriate for public discussion.
Way back when; this was a click and type thing.
Today, no-can-find.
Did the big honchos of this site have to remove it for some logistics reason ?
I can easily imagine some significant abuse of the feature; so, no whine if that's the case.
Otherwise, if I'm missing an obvious place to click, please let me know.

At the bottom of each message is a "Email" item the when clicked allows you to send an email to the author of a message.

It's there, but not for all members - it can be disabled in your settings:
Disable that, and the "email" option disappears from everything you post.

... to a page where I sell my stuff?
Thanks in advance.

What did you have in mind?

Thank you for your attention.
The idea is to put a link into my Biography (e.g. www.manning.com) where one can order a book I've published.
I only like to make sure, that this does not break the CP rules concerning adverts.

As long as it's just the link and not like, "Download my book today. First users to use promocode 01AA gets %5 off!" that's OK.
Thanks,

I checked back a few pages on this forum and didn't see anything. Also tried the search, so figured it was time to ask. I enjoy coming and voting in surveys and seeing the results. I haven't seen a survey in the last 2 weeks. Did I miss the news?

Our survey maker, Chris, has been on vacation.

I'm happy to restart the straw polls if we get some good suggestions. I'm letting them sit for a bit. I'd rather post a question people are interested in than post a question for the sake of asking a question.
cheers

How about providing a description of the problem, rather than posting an unexplained screen-shot every few days and expecting the hamsters to work it out?

If someone can look at this problem and not understand it from even just the first screenshot, they have no business being near a compiler. What an embarrassment.

If you can't provide even a basic description of the problem beyond unexplained screen-shots, and respond angrily to the mere suggestion that you do so, then you have no business posting here.

I get the same emails you're showing and don't see a single problem with them.
If you can't be bothered to explain the problem, you are the embarrassment. As someone who has been writing code for 40 years and dealing with customer complaints, I expect a minimum standard of a problem description so there is no confusion between customer and developer. You have failed to supply that minimum amount of information and clarification. Instead of posting a screenshot of who-knows-what, you might want to try explaining what you perceive as a problem and actually HAVE A DISCUSSION ABOUT IT!
What YOU consider a problem may not be a problem at all. It may just be that it is your expectations that need to be fixed. I can't tell you how many time I've run into that in my career.

My guess is the hamsters are sending him the screenshots and he (rightly) hates the "dark mode" view.
Nothing else is obvious from the OP first post.

I think it is more about how the subject / previes of the email is built.
1) Look like individual tags
2) No need for sunglasses as there are no more yellow squares
3) For me looks like #2, no idea where the difference here is

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

My guess is the headline article is remaining the same. Which seems odd, but I'll dig in.

Perhaps its the day of week dangling(probably incomplete) in the title at the end?

I'm thinking about ones like this spammer: https://www.[DELETED].net.in - Professional Profile[^] - there is no legitimate reason to want them, it's only ever going to be spam.
