Hi. I am a paid up member and cannot access Bartertown.

You are not showing up as a subscriber. So the issue seems to be with your subscription, not with accessing BT.

@Ms Grumpy

Exactly. If you really did subscribe there would be a red "Subscriber" banner under your username. At the moment there is nothing there.

Only subscribers can access Bartertown.

I have a problem with both my phone and pad. The edit menu does not function, can't change text font, color, emoji's etc. The menu works properly on the desktop. Am I missing something?

Edit: I see you added "desktop." Below is "mobile" but maybe it still will help.

Thread 'Post formatting tools and emojis unavailable?'

Feb 12, 2025

I seem to have lost ability to use post formatting options like bold, italic, lists, emojis, etc. I see the features/functions but all are grayed out.

This is regarding my Samsung smart phone and Edge app. I have not checked on a PC.

Anyone?

Can you PM me your email associated with your Paypal account and when you think that you paid for a subscription.

I can look into this through PayPal and verify your subscription.

 

[Ms Grumpy]

The last shown subscription, which allows you to get into Barter Town, was January 23, 2020. I looked that up using the email associated with your account.
A subscription is good for 1 year.

If you used a different email to subscribe, send me a PM.

Ditto here on the greyed-out editing toolbar.

Found the correct combo of dots, not completely sure what I did, but the toolbars work.

I'm on a desktop today. Clicking on the "[ ]" menu item toggles the editing stuff on and off. Same on mobile except there it is buried in a sub-menu.

That's what I clicked on, had no idea of what it's function was, but it worked.

AGAIN I cannot get through on my cell phone with DDGO, I just managed now on my table top with Edge...

I will be out of AK for a (long) while as I mainhly use my CF for it and I am fed up with it this rec. situation!!!

I came back today and problem with my DDGo seems to have been solved, all this time away means other alternatives with no or less problems!

As I posted in another thread, hats off to whoever finally figured out the issues with copying and pasting and loading the pics. I used to always be able to simply copy and paste my vinyl pressings and they would come out just as they are at Discogs, until they went to that new server and instituted Cloud fire security stuff, from that point it would copy the text and frames correctly, now it does, thanks to who figured it out.

I think it’s more portrait’s shorter menu bar vs landscape than OS vs iOS to toggle the menu bar FWIW.

Yes, window size (in pixels) difference not really desktop vs. mobile.difference.

This has been popping up on me. Trying to post a few short paragraphs and a photo, both are pretty brief.

I think we might be getting a Internet hammering from external sources.
