i am having some troubles with my inbox and viewing trip logs ,, anyone else experiencing this ?

I haven't received a message for a year and a half, and I don't think I've successfully sent one for that long, so I'm not sure that's working. Viewing trip reports works ok, but I kind of gave up posting them myself because I have so much difficulty getting the photos to upload. I'm assuming that's a version-of-software issue that's beyond my technical knowledge (which is a low threshold to cross I'm afraid). I've got access to two computers, one I can never get to upload photos to the site, the other I can but it is kind of random. Sometimes I can get two or three uploaded, sometimes five or six, sometimes zero.

Did not. I don't think I'd ever find it, but I believe I saw a post or two some time ago indicating that the message function was disabled....I wouldn't stake my life on it, but I think I saw that.

Last one for me was March 2023. I just sent one to you, swede.

I haven't been able to send or receive a PM since Jan or Feb of 2024.

I got the exact same results last year when I asked MartinG to send me a few PMs. Got the email notification, but no message in my inbox. My messages to him were never delivered either.

oh no,,
i thought it was just me and my bad luck again ,, however this problem with the inbox not working is getting bigger,,

For what it's worth - I can't delete any messages either. I'll check the box, press delete and it redirects to a white page with plain text reading: 'We couldn't open the requested file.'

So it seems the entire messaging system might be broken. For some, at least.

Can anyone else successfully delete a message?

Just tried to delete one. "We couldn't access the requested file."

NB: One is only able to have 1,000 messages.
If you've accumulated that many, delete some.
Make sure your settings allow messages.

I have used 238 of 1000 messages. I am unable to delete, send or receive any messages. Weird.

**Posted by scratchypants** 6/03/2025 6:05 pm

I only have 15.

So I guess the question is when will the private message feature be fixed?
