How Can I edit my message, when it was already submitted to the thread? I have to change some information in the 1942 2nd edition forum concerning the download of my maps. Wright now I can see only two buttons: “reply” and “quote”.

Klick the “Three Points” next to “Reply, Quote and Heart symbol” to open another menu, select “Edit” there:

Thank you, Panther! It works fine!
Several times before, I tried the triple dot, and may be due to problems with connecting to the thread, the server cut me off, so I had no access to the edit menue.

Set your Online status

Your online status is still “invisible” - but you want it to be set to “online”?

Here is how to do it:

Click on your profile image on the top right of the screen and select “Online”.

@Panther It’s still on my todo list to reset everybody to “online”.

how do you get the pop up “return to last post” or similar to show up ? i get it on the triplea site on the bottom right, although it doesn’t always take me to the very last post all the time, it gets close.

I couldn’t find anything in settings

Thanks place is Rocking !

@barnee
I don’t think that it is a setting but something automated, that I sometimes notice, sometimes not.

Send a PM / Use the Chat

Klick on the user’s name you want to chat with to access his profile.
At the right side of the user’s image there is that blue circle with the three dots inside.
Klick on that blue circle.

At the top of the then opening menu klick “Start new chat with …”

Type in the chatbox.

Access past and current chats by klicking the speech bubble-symbol next to your own profile image.

@Panther Though … you might not want to start a chat with @djensen47. I rarely login to that account, I use it for TripleA games (I don’t like using my admin account for TripleA).

@djensen
Haha, I hope it is obvious for everyone, that this served only as example. :smiley:
