I seem to be unable to link advice articles.  You can click on "advice that links to this one" but when you click on it, the search facility and button to "link" or "add" is not there.

I'm trying to submit my answers for the latest survey on the Minti Code of Honour and Editorial Guidelines, but have come across a rather puzzling problem (and I'm sure I won't be the only one to notice it).

The first 3 questions are fine, I can answer them, but because I have marked yes for the first 2, I am not required (or so I thought) to anwer the last question, which is only for it you haven't marked yes in the first 2.

When I go to submit the answers, it tells me that not all answers have been filled in and it can't submit my survey.  How do you answer a question if it is relating to having said no to the first 2 questions when I have said yes?

even when I click the browse button that many times it still wont let me upload photos my minti area will not let me go to my private photos to upload more at the moment it is driving me crazy HHHEEELLLPPP!!!

i joined a new group, then when i went into my members area i noticed i had an invite to that group.too !  the trouble is if i press "accept" it still stays in my members area waiting to be accepted or rejected.

my question is if i reject it to get it off my members area will it also rejec tme from the group?

"Got a favour to ask.  Can you please log in the bugs and functionality group that I can't blog at all.  not in groups, not in own blog.  But I can leave comments! ROFL.

I'd do it myself, but CAN'T BLOG TO BE ABLE TO TELL THEM I CAN'T BLOG! pmsl!"

I just tried to upload some photo's but it won't click over. I pick a photo to upload and it tansfers it to the upload box but when I click to upload the box deletes and nothing happens.

i just voted a pic with two thumbs up and when i look into the persons photos its only showing a one thumb up why??????

ps. member tearfillcloud pic voted on Tanya-Maree JPS (in the red dress)? it was definately the two thumb vote! 

Minti is acting up again, what happened to the 'source icon'?  I was so loving it and now it has disappeared as well it is once again taking minti longer than normal to load up...its not good having all these problems with this site...I am afraid it will turn many people off because its been so long with these different (shall we say) malfunctions ...Must practice patience but that can be hard when its always something...

Yesterday my watch list came up with a huge list - including things back to 2007.  I deleted them all, but some of them won't go away - I have manually deleted as well as clicked on "Clear Watchlist" and they are still there when I come back.  Anyone else having this problem?

 I have just read  a article and went to add a link to another article....but NO-WHERE did I find ADD A LINK. Has it been taken off????

Can anyone help and/or does anybody else have this problem? Some of the groups that I either belong to or have looked at do not fit on the screen. By that I mean that instead of the information (or blogs or Q&A) being contained within the window, the format comes out too wide and I find I have to use the bottom scroll bar to get to the end of each sentence. Very annoying and makes it hard to read anything. One of the groups that this happens to me is "Showing Love". Does anyone else have this problem? Is there a way that I can correct it? (Have I even explained myself properly?)

How can I send a minti mail to some one whose email address I don't know.

I am getting problems inserting photos into blogs etc. It is one of those annoying intermittent problems! I gave up maybe 6 months ago when I was using OE and just copied & pasted from a second Window into my text. But since we switched to Firefox I can't do this! The problem is that I click on Insert Image, then Browse Server and then I wait.... and wait.... and sometimes wait.... and still wait.... Sometimes trying a second time will fix it, sometimes my list of photos NEVER appears. This is probably the case every two or three days, as I insert photos quite a lot.

The less common complaint is for eg. I went to put a Blog in the Children's Artwork Group tonight and (as happens about monthly) I could type in a Title, but the box below for the text would not let me type or insert ANYTHING.

Any suggestions?

Yes, I do feel like the Avatar for this group when these two problems occur!

It better work this time. Comments are not posting and this is VERY frustrating if you write out a long post please help

The Bedtime Stories banner at the top of the Minti page is really starting to annoy me.  I don't mind ads - I understand that they add to the costs of the site etc...  But these ones that play ads - there is no way of opting out of it and it is slowing everything down.  It has taken all day to get through my watchlist - very slowly - as each page takes for ever to load and if I'm not paying attention the sound comes on and is stilted and annoying.  I know I can stop it playing, but I should not have to so on every page just so I can read what friends have written.  Can we restrict ads or find a way so that we can opt out of moving ads?

I have noticed today on a couple of articles that the scores are 2 stars, but have "worth a try" next to it- so should hence be a 4 star according to this comment.  If it was a 2 then it would say "not convinced". so is it graded a 4 or a 2?

i think the star system is a little confused today.

 Is it worth considering removing the option of Q & A to make an article out of an answer to a question. It seems that lots of new members are confused and we get a lot of articles that aren't advice just answers to a question? The members then get jumped on and upset because they don't know what they have done wrong??

Its so frustrating seeing advice articles that are basically just answers to a question

Could we not have the options as something along the lines

A) My Advice

B) Write an article on this subject

Most times it is misleading for the writer that they think they know a lot about the subject yet still just answer the question in a few lines, publishing an article that will likely later get reported.........vicious circle........

seriously it cbanges back to the same number then i hold it down change arrow try different combinations and changes  the ones next to it or elsewhere . just when i get a friend in the right order and i try to put another friend in the right order it switches the others

there is no ryhme or reason to it 

helppppppppppppppppppppp?????????????????

I am still finding it sporadic the watchlist emails that come through daily.  I didn't get one today.  Is there something going on?

pauline and helen (nell) brought up the issue. yet helen had been offline for 2 week

see technical forum. i checked my friends list and all that i checked said they were currently on line (except elishas mum and elamiawho havent been on for a while ) the thing is that it was 5.35am here in australia est and my fellow minti members were tucked in bed. it was unusual for me to be up so late .the weiredest thing was that i had logged out and gone to bed and helen checked my status and it said that i was "currently on line" when in fact it should have read "last on line"
