How do I PM?

[Pixeldawg1]

Hi all,

I am sorry for asking a stupid question, but it doesn't seem too obvious. How do you PM a specific member?

Many thanks and sorry for the daftness.

Cordially,

Mark

Click on the person's avatar. In the pop up that opens click the link Start a Conversation.

You can also look at the top right where your username is. You'll see a little envelope icon. That will also give you the option to start a conversation and then see your list of conversations.

... or if you don't have the envelope icon (I don't) the word "Inbox" should be there.

I don't have an envelope neither.

There are two "skins" available on TPF - TPF Blue and TPF Red v1. The blue skin uses icons, including the envelope while the red uses text.

You select the skin at the bottom left of the window.

Oh that's right, I forgot all about the skins. I switched to blue years ago and forgot the red ever existed.

^^ All of the above replies will get you there.

Don't feel bad - this particular forum software, xen Foro, uses "conversation" as opposed to PM, private message, which is the verbiage a lot of people get used to seeing. A mite confusing.

I have been using the red skin for years now!

Ah, that explains it. I'm a red skin.

Style chooser in the bottom left corner.

You're on the blue skin then. Red is quite obvious.

I'm neither an American nor an Indian, so how can I be a red skin

The more monochrome skin suits me better allowing me to concentrate more on the content of posts.
