Could you make the Private Messages automatically forward to the email in the person's profile? Yesterday I sent a PM to you and a few others. I received replies from two of the members. I suspect you have been too busy to reply and that perhaps the other just hasn't seen that he has a message waiting for him. The Jive forum had this setting, that a message to a user was forwarded to their email without revealing their email address. I think this is a good approach as it assures the message is seen and yet it protects the recipients' email from being exposed.

Thanks for considering this.

Thanks, @DennisD ! I'll see what I can do about that. I should also post a public "to do" list so you all can see what's in progress.

And about the other thing, I didn't respond immediately because I needed to think about it. And then I got involved in other stuff. I'll try to make it back to that message, and respond.

Any ideas you don't/can't implement just move them to "Submitted to R&D". Seems to be working well elsewhere...

Is there an extension that lets GIF's play inline? (You know, like the old site. )
