Can't clear PM mailboxes! HELP!

Post by Astrodokk »

Been trying to clear my PM messages.
I've sent one to chin-k and blue~go, and since I didn't get a response, went to check on my PM boxes.
Sent is 100% full, and inbox is only 54% full.
I will checkmark certain ones in either category, move down to the delete messages option, and click on "go".
I will refresh page and they all still show up without having been deleted!
What am I doing incorrectly?

I would put this on the Campfiore subforum.

Anyway, Manitou is the one who need to look into this, since I follow your steps, which is logical to me (I do GUI/UX programming for many, many years), and I end up with the same result.

I suggested that you send a PM to Manitou about this issue..... oh wait :oops:

I'm currently having this problem as well.

Was it ever fixed?

hmm interesting. I get the problem too. Must have cropped up after one of the upgrades. No one sent me a message, so just seeing this now. May take a while to fix. I didn't write the code for this forum. It's an open-source package. (not that it really matters.. I'll figure it out..)

I found a work around. If you click into the actual message and use the "x" button, it will delete. I don't know why the check box->delete->go method isn't working. There is an upgrade available for the phpbb software, but the hosting server isn't compatible with it yet. So until I can find the real fix for the check box mthod not working.. we'll just have to use the workaround of going into each pm message. Sorry.
