Inv Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Hi team, I wanted to report a bug. I tried to PM a red-coloured Admin about how to update my profile, and got this very cryptic error: Message $bbuserinfo[username], You do not have permission to access this page. This is because you are not logged in or have not registered. Log Out Home Yet I was both registered and logged in. Any ideas what this error means and how to fix it? Thanks!

In the page where your PM appears (http://forum.punterslounge.com/private.php), I clicked the "Send New Message" link on the top-left and got the error I mentioned previously. (A screenshot won't really add much in this case as the page with the error message just has the text I posted previously verbatim.) Any ideas how to fix this cryptic error?

avongirl Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Re: I tried to PM a red-coloured Admin about updating my profile, but got a cryptic e I believe it is because you are a new member. PM rights are not given immediately or automatically. You will have to serve some time here before you are able to PM, especially since you have built a high number of posts in a short time.

Also, the error message still has to to be fixed because it is quite cryptic. Thanks, although I already figured out how to change my password. If I have any other private questions, I will e-mail you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodgate Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Its right at the top right next to your log in name. Called 'messages'. I can see that, but I cant seem to find out how I can write a personal message to anybody. Can you tell me that ? When i go to message I have a notification, saying somebody liked my post, the only option I have there is to press ignore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
froment Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Go to the profile of member you want to send PM to, then on "Activities" tab there is a "Private message" button. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see no private message button, but I see a box where I can write in, I would assume that was visitor message. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
froment Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Indeed, I got it as visitor message... but I have just sent you a private message, the way I explained... I'm from mobile now, so can't make a screenshot... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodgate Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 I unfortunately cant post a screenshot of the screen, but there is no PM button on my screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
froment Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 It looks like this for me: I have just repeated PM for you, I hope it got through; the problem yesterday evening was that you had PM disabled, as I was from the mobile, I didn't see warning message at the moment, only later; so I clicked "Post", but it never got sent. This time, it seems that message went through, and I see it in "Sent items" folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodgate Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 I have received your PM, but when I wanted to write back it said " You are not authorized to create this post." Seems like I cant write back... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
froment Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Well, I don't know then... :( I've checked my settings, and I have PM enabled, so it's not the cause. Hope Paul will look into this issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
