Praxis Group Notes

Whenever I " Drop a note " and submit it to Group Notes in Praxis Home Page my message is accepted but it always has the word "Delete" wrongly added to the message...can anyone please advise  necessary correction?

The Delete button is added to every note. This enables you to delete any note you have submitted - if you want to. e.g.

 This is the normal and expected behaviour.

Under FORUMS, there are 6 lists:

  1. Unanswered Posts
  2. New Unread Posts
  3. Today's Hot Topics
  4. Topics I am Tracking
  5. Topics I Have Posted In
  6. Topics I have Started

When you post something, it will appear in one or more of those lists.

Immediately after you post it, BEFORE anyone has read it, it gets listed in 2.New Unread Posts and also 1.Unanswered Posts.

As soon as anyone has looked at it, the post gets deleted from the 2.New Unread Posts list - but it is still in the 1.Unanswered Posts list.

If somebody replies (so that means there are at least two posts in that topic), the post gets removed from the 1.Unanswered Posts list.

Thanks for help Art as usual I'm not explaining myself too well.. trouble is the problem is appearing in private group notes so only Praxisarians can see them.. not even Kohai as she has just told me in another attempt of mine to get point across.I thought every post first publishes in Todays Topics so every one can see them  for short time they are still hot. MY original effort did not appear in the hot topics though I was watching to ensure it would be seen... it seemed to go straight to the Uread dead !

PS actually I'm not too bothered and Praxis have made no comment so maybe they are not either ! My motivation as always is only to help site sort out any probs by making report .

You originally posted THIS topic in the OFF-TOPIC forum category. It has now been moved to the Help & Support forum category.

Every post in the main forums (NOT the GROUP forums) DOES appear in the Most Recent Posts list on the right of the display - EXCEPT for OFF-TOPIC ones. You used the wrong forum category - hence your post was nearly invisible and so you got no response.

The Unread and Unanswered lists are not a criticism of anyone's posts; they merely record the fact that no-one has yet read or commented. From time to time, members look at these lists to see what is new (after posts have dropped off the Most Recent Posts list, and hence are out of sight).

Look again at the screenshot in post#2. The Notes that I have submitted, have a Delete button - meaning that I can delete them.

The Notes that someone else has posted do not have a DELETE button next to them - so I cannot delete them - since I didn't submit them.

Got that OK ... Thanks as always !

Nah, there is nowhere near a big enough pool of dummies here at chess.com. Wink (For further DELETEd explanation, see site-error?page=2)
