cathyb Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Hello-Can someone tell me how to get to the other forums here? I scrolled down to the Q+A one and clicked on "go" but nothing happens. Thanks for your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyW Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 just click on the name of the forum you want to look at Cathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathyb Posted June 7, 2008 Author Share Posted June 7, 2008 Hi Randy. Thanks. It only works for certain forums, though. I can't seem to get to the Lung Cancer Q+A one or the Tech Support/How to use the forums. Any idea what I'm doing wrong here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyW Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 I am not having any problems but my only other advice is to send a PM to KatieB. If you click on the new mesages button t the top of the page you should get to your Mailbox here. Then send KatieB a message stating Problem. SHe might be able to help more. Let her know which forums and that those are the only 2 forums. wish I could help more.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connie B Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Cathy, Like Randy, I'm not having problems either. To get into a FORUM Click on the LARGE LETTERS in DARK PURPLE that say: (Example below) Go to the Index Page and Do this. MY STORY MEMBER PHOTO ALBUM LUNG CANCER Q & A This only means that "Ask The Experts" is in that FORUM. BUT if you click on ASK THE EXPERT you'll get in that forum that way too. ASK THE EXPERTS LC SURVIVORS NSCLC & MESOTHELIOMA And so on down the list on the INDEX FORUM PAGE (front page) I'm just typing a few of the Forums here to give you the idea. Under Each Forum you will see discpritions telling you what each Forum offers you or what that Forum is all about. Take time and read over each Forum. Find the Forum that best suit's your needs. If it's GRIEVING FORUM then click on the word GREIVING FORUM You did get into the INTRODUCE YOURSELF FORUM so that leads me to believe your not clicking on the right areas. (hopefully)! If you DON'T get into any of these forums you will have to contact Katieb as Randy stated. Try Clicking onto the words on the Index Page: TECH SUPPORT/HOW TO USE THIS FORUM. Click onto one of those words, pick SUPPORT and see if you get into the forum. Let us know if anything works for you. Katie checks the board often, so she'll be on help when she checks in. I hope I explained this easy enough to offer you some help. We're here to lend a helping hand. We'll get you on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
recce101 Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 Cathy: I took some screen shots of what you should be seeing, so compare with what you ARE seeing and maybe we can figure out the problem (unless it's something to do with your account, then KatieB might be able to help as Randy said). When you first log in you'll see the list of all the forums, like this partial view: Scroll down, put your cursor on Ask the Experts (the cursor will turn into a pointing hand where I have the black arrow): Click, and you'll see this: Note that this forum is LOCKED, meaning you can't ask any questions here. If you like, you can read some previous posts, especially the live chat logs with Dr. West. But for questions, go to cancergrace.org, register (most of us have the same unsernames there as here), and ask your questions in the Forums section. Now go back to the LCSC forum index and scroll down to Technical Support / How To Use This Forum: Click on that, and it will take you here: To ask a question, click on New Topic and proceed from there, or to read posts in existing topics, scroll down and click on a topic: That will take you here. You can scroll down to read all the posts, then if you like, click the Post Reply button and add your own comments. Also, note that clicking on one of the category headings like Lung Cancer Q & A, Discussion Forums, etc., does nothing but collapse the display of all the categories except the one that you've clicked on (merely a space-saving technique). Perhaps that was part of your confusion. Best wishes and Aloha, Ned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaminkw Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 Ned: You really should start a second career as a computer tech. You just know we sometimes have brain freezes and people are saying "just click" and we're not looking in the right place and not clicking the right words. Don't know how many times I've caught myself doing that but only after wasting so much time. Hope this helps Cathy. Awesome.

Connie B Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 Thanks Ned for your AWESOME HELP!! NED ROCKS!!! I agree with Judy on a second career for you as a tech, but I think your Tech Career is BEST SPENT RIGHT HERE! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cathyb Posted June 9, 2008 Author Share Posted June 9, 2008 Thank you, all, for your patience. To quote Eliza Dolittle, "By George, I think I've got it." I had been going down to the small rectangular box that says "jump to" and "Select a Forum" at the end of the page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
