How do you message another member. I have tried to search the forum as instructed on the club site. Thanks for any assistance

Top right of the page Hobbo next to your name, click private messages and go to compose message...Bobs your uncle!

Hi all I can find next to my name is notifications clicked on that and also the small triangle next to my name, can't find anything to do with messages. Thanks, hope it is not me being thick.Mike

Are you signed in as a member?
If you are then as well as notifications it should also say 'Private Messages' and clicking on that opens up messaging to members.

Yes, I had the same problem, but worked it out by registering for the club web site and the forum separately, it’s a bit of a pain and I have to log into the forum each time I visit, despite clicking the remember me box. It does seem to be a bit clunky, but it could well be operator error!

Hi Ivor that's what I did, my user name and my registered club details are different apart from email address. I too have to log in on the forum each time although I press remember me, with logging into the club site, it does remember me there. Mike

Managed to get a slight result from doing a message search. All I get at the moment is public request for assistance, do not get any other headings at all like general forum,technical help, exchange loans sales and wants, new members etc. No wonder nothing is working, I only get a small fraction of the page. I have tried to re register, but putting my email address in, it will not allow me to continue. Mike sorry for being such a pest
