eLink Design has informed me that they are short staffed and must fix the last 2 bugs a few days apart. I trust that by next Wednesday we can be fully back to normal.
I really appreciate everyone's patience.
Brian and I told them that receiving email notifications when we are following a post is the first priority. Then getting the icons and bells back is the second.
I will keep you informed.

What you CAN do is control the selection of posts and the order. At the bottom of the page change the button that says ALL POSTS and change the time frame. Also try changing DESCENDING to ASCENDING and see if you get everything on one page. That may at least help until this kink has been fixed.

Get rid of all the print on the left-hand margin of posts and go back to icons---- and PLEASE find some way to separate the "stickys" from new posts. A simple line would do. As is, I can only tell where the new post begin by scanning the dates. An annoying time-consuming problem with a simple cure.
I love to get old reels, work on them until they run as smooth as silk and the take them fishing using pre-1960 plugs, mostly surface fishing for Largemouths after dark.

...if we can't use icons, could we see UNREAD in bold, in color, or in some other easier-to-notice form? Maybe "read" and "UNREAD" would suffice.

Yes, all of the above has been brought to eLink's attention and are waiting for their help to get everything back to normal. They are working at it but, as you all know, things are sometimes very difficult and don't go as smoothly as you anticipated. THANK YOU FOR EVERYONE'S PATIENCE
Aloha

Got a spare reel stamped "Pflueger" or a Montague Imperial?

eLink just restored the feature that allows us to see the next page of multiple page posts. We all await the next fix - email notifications.

Re: *******IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT********
I finally figured out what Mark was talking about with the e-mail/PM notifications. There's a little mail icon at the top left corner of the page that takes you to the message board but no indication there that you have any messages. For some reason my board preferences got changed to not notify me of PMs and I've tried to reset it multiple times but it won't accept my changes. I found a pm I didn't even know existed.
Hmmm?

Love those Open Face Spinning Reels! (Especially ABU & ABU/Zebco)
