    I wanted to pass on that If one types www.priuschat.com into their browser address bar, it will not direct you to this site.. It does however say this:


    [​IMG]This domain has just been registered for one of our customers!
    Domain registration and webhosting at best prices.

    Even the link to the site I have on my desktop sends me to the above listing.


    Just a heads up.. :)

    Or, simply write your post in Word & do the spell checking there. Or write in this forum, copy to Word to spell check & paste the end result. For Firefox users, this might be a good solution.

    Get rid of the "www" and just type the address as http://priuschat.com ~ works for me when I do it that way. :)

    Well - - I think it is safe to say that you have a LOT of fans who really worry, when their favorite web site is down!

    I don't know if you deal with the prius accessories but for some reason I can't log into my account. Just a little worried where my product is located.

    I was trying to view the downloads section and it keeps returning an error. it seems you cannot view any attached files from old posts either. Just thought I would mention it. I have come to enjoy this site and visit it almost daily. It has really helped me get to know my prius. Thanks for all of the work that is being done.

    I am shocked by how much I missed seeing PriusChat some up as my homepage!!! I felt experienced distinct moments of loss and a twinge or two of grief!!!

    I AM SO GLAD EVERYTHING IS BACK TO BETTER!!

    Thanks Danny!!

    Danny, thanks for the IE fix, getting PriusChat back up and the prospect that our Great site might get better!

    Missed not having PC around -- welcome back.

    Feel bad pointing issues out, but since we were asked, FWIW: Photo/avatar uploads seem not be working as of yet.

    Danny,
    I'm not sure whether this is a related issue, but when I tried to attach some pictures (which I've done successfully in the past) I received this message:

    The requested file upload failed because suitable permissions have not been enabled on the 'uploads' directory. Please contact the board administrator and inform them of this error.


    Thanks for your help.

    Are you guys still having problems with uploading pictures? I've double checekd the settings and everything appears to be correct... I'll 3x check and make sure.

    BTW, I added the 2007 to the list of Model Years in the Profile selection.

    hey danny...

    couple things i noticed.

    first, the downloads section doesn't work, the error is:
    Could not locate the '/home/httpd/vhosts/priuschat.com/httpdocs/uploads/dsfiles' directory or the '/home/httpd/vhosts/priuschat.com/httpdocs/uploads/dsfiles' directory is writeable.

    second, i can't report posts as i just found out when trying to report a spammer post. it says i don't have permission.

    and any reason why the article system lists 65 articles and only 9 viewable?

    Maybe it got fixed since Galaxee posted, but I just reported some spam and it seemed to work fine, at least no error messages.

    Here's what I'm getting when I try to upload a personal picture:


    Sorry, an error occurred. If you are unsure on how to use a feature, or don't know why you got this error message, try looking through the help files for more information.

    The error returned was:
    The upload failed. Please contact a member of staff to help rectify the problem.

    BTW, Evan had to upload my avatar for me.
