Hi Everyone-
Just want to let you know that we are having problems with the message boards posting function when you are not logged in. It asks you to put in a code, then tells you that you entered an incorrect code ... and doesn't let you post.

Sorry if you have already discovered this -- we know it's a royal pain and our developers are working on fixing this!

In the meantime, please log in to post and you won't need to enter a code.

Thanks for being patient while we work out these beta issues.

Hi NJmom-

We have been working on this part of the website so please check back now.

How to be anonymous on the PTO Today site:

When filling out your profile information at:
www.ptotoday.com/community/profile/edit

Fill in your in all the information in the required fields but just above "Additional Profile Information (Private)" there is a field that says:
I would prefer my ENTIRE profile to be private

By clicking yes, the only information that will be shown in the profile will be your user name.

Another alternative is to have a public profile but just post anonymously when you feel it is appropriate. You can do this on the message boards by logging out. In our Ask a Question section of the site, after you ask a question there is a check box that says, "I'd like to post anonymously for this question."

If you have any more questions, please let me know!

I just tried to edit my profile but did not want to enter name, address etc. When I tried to save the changes, I received an error asking for those items to be filled in.

Hi Ellen-
Also regarding your message about the new topics feature... I wanted to let you and others know - just in case you didn't notice: in the message boards on the left-hand column there is an icon with a person and a check mark. If there are new posts in that category the check mark will be green. To the right of the forum title it will say how many new posts in green. Then when you click on that forum, the newest threads will be at the top. Hope this helps!

Keep the questions & comments coming!

Thanks,
Lisa

Hi London-
Thanks for getting back to us to clarify.
Yup, you're right - if you are logged in you don't have to deal with entering the "captcha" code.

We are working on the issue of the code and losing your post when not logged it.

Thanks for your patience,
~Lisa

I am talking about the anti spamming code thing. At the bottom of themain text field there is a small text field that says "Enter Code Here"Then there are yellow #s.

I keep getting "Code Not Correct" even if the code IS correct.

It is one more thing to make posting harder and if you forget, poof there goes your post.

I think it was because I was not signed in. Now that I am it has gone away.
