Technical question - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I haven't been a very good friend, and would like to increase my communication with my friends on here. Is there a way you can send a message to all of your friends or more than one friend on here, or must one do them all individually????

I am anxious to see your responses to your question, I have been wondering the same thing

You can PM up to 5 people by adding a ; after each name. Other than that I do not think you can send out multiple messages.

Let's bump this up and see if anyone else has a different answer.

I am not sure if you can send multiple visitor messages, but I so wish someone would come up with a way to do that!

This is the only way I know how to do it also.

Depends upon the type of question that you would like to ask. At the very top of the forum on the left side is a little box that says POST A NEW THREAD. Click that and a new window will open. Give your question a TITLE and then write your question in the box. The Smilies over to the right can be used and added to your question like

If you would like a smilie to show up before the title those are the ones below the box that you type inside.

When you are finished click the little box under those smilies to SUBMIT.

Oh and WELCOME TO YorkieTalk

If you want to write all you friends the same message, on their profile page, you can't do it all at the same time. Admin says that this helps prevent people using Yorkietalk to send spam. If I have to send out a mass mailing for the puppy mill club, I open about 10 members pages at once, paste the message and click "post message." You have to wait 30 seconds between posts, so I read the forum while I'm waiting, and just click each page seperately, and close out the page. Then I open 10 or so more.

Nancy,

If you are a contributing member you have the ability to PM several people at one time.

I'm talking about posting on someone's profile page. I'll post on your page so you'll know what I mean. Many of us love the profile page messages!

I loved that picture......too cute.

I guess it's because I don't like the whole world being able to view my conversations....just an uncomfortable feeling.

Yeah that's true, and you wouldn't want to post something that others shouldn't see. You can set your setting so that only "friends" can read your pages. See this page to edit your privacy settings if you would like to keep your page more private. http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/profile.php?do=privacy
