Cannot delete messsages in inbox or outbox

Post by WintrSol »

I just get this message: "The submitted form was invalid. Try submitting again."
Tried multiple times, one or more selected messages.

On further thought, it appears the Private messages aren't working at all. I got an email from the system, that said I received a PM from another member, but that message does not appear on my PM list. If the email hadn't included the message and return address, I wouldn't have been able to follow up.

I guess no one is monitoring this for site problems anymore. Too bad.

If it's any consolation, mine works properly. :confused:

Odd. Perhaps it's because the newest message is nearly 2 years old, and were sent in error. There are only 10 total, but I can't delete any. I've tried changing settings of my browser (newest Firefox), with no change. What bothers me most is no new messages show up.

How about I send a PM to you, and see if you can answer?

Since most of the messages are old, except for those discussing this problem, I would have no issues if you have to delete all of them to clear up the problem. I don't get much PM traffic anymore, so the box won't fill up for quite some time.

I haven't been using PMs for some time myself. You had me going there for a while.
It would seem that there should be a way to mark them all and delete them as a group. I don't see anyway to do that.
I don't remember so well anymore and I can't recall if the previous version had that or not.
In fact finding a delete button was a task in itself and appears to only show itself when you're actually have a message opened.
That's where I finally found it. Seems to work just fine.

In the inbox (or sent messages), you can mark one or more messages with the check box, then there is a small drop-down box, bottom right, that used to delete all marked messages. I just tried opening and deleting a single message, and that works, so, one at a time, I guess. The update must have broken the drop-down command.

Sounds like a microsoft software update, they almost always screw something up.
I can't seem to win the lottery. I think I have used up all of my good luck riding motorcycles.

In this case, Mozilla (I use Firefox).

Same issue. I have to click each message to open, hit the small x and then click yes when it asks if I'm sure I wanna delete it.. Lol.
