Subforum question (PMs when recipient has Yuku profile)

[Principessa21]

I want to start a thread about having a Madison softball team. I know there is one already in the softball subforum, but this one would be about signing up, not interest. So my questions: Will the new thread be locked? And will it be okay to start it in the off-topic subforum? I was just thinking that if might not get seen in the softball subforum,and that after a day or two one of you fabulous moderators can then move it.

 

Thanks, D

Go ahead and start a new thread in the off-topic forum, giving the reason that you're putting it there in case the other mods don't see this message.

OK, so I tried to ezmail you but couldn't figure it out. This yuku thing is confusing. Anyway, how can I send mods a message?

Click on a mod's username, then click on 'send me a message' next to 'My Inbox' on their profile. Brian's is different from the rest because he has a Yuku profile. When they respond, you'll see something that looks like this:

OK, thanks, I'm gonna send you a message in a minute. But I knew that, and when I clicked on Brian the Automator's name it went to some yuku thing where I couldn't find 'send a message.' What's up with that, yo?

[PeaveyFury]

Not sure about the Yuku thing, as I can't find the send a message link either.

[Principessa21]

Hmm, interesting. Thanks Peavey!

If you go to your EZboard inbox, you can still create a message and manually address it to Brian the Automator (or whatever other poster).

 

Once everyone is in Yuku, this particular weirdness ought to subside. (Right?) At least, the weirdness caused by some posters having migrated to Yuku and others remaining in ezboard.

That's the best suggestion I can think of short of replying to an existing PM from the person you want to send to.

 

ezBoard and Yuku are two separate (but related) accounts. An ezBoard member isn't going to be able to utilize the PM link in a Yuku profile unless s/he has migrated.

 

If you do migrate and want to be sure the Send Message link is functional for ezBoard members, do this:

• Go to My Control Center
  
• Click on Edit Profile
  
• Uncheck the box that says Use Yuku Profile.

Doing that will ensure that ezBoard members see your ezBoard profile and Yuku members will see your Yuku profile.

 

I've migrated two accounts. On one account, migration resulted in the Yuku profile being the default, so I changed the setting. On the other account, the ezBoard profile was the default. Go figure.
