Private Messages are NOT working...

I need some help from an Admin or someone on the board...everytime I try to send a PM, right after I hit "submit", it directs me to the "answer the question to prove you are not a spam bot, but a human" page. I answer the question and it comes up and says "No recipient defined"...even though I address the PM. This happens even when trying to reply to a current PM...how can I fix this?

I've just sent you a PM for testing purposes.

Hello Peter...I got your PM, and I tried to reply, but it was the same story...I was asked the security question and then this page comes up...

Also, there are no messages in my "sent" or "outgoing" tabs, other then previous messages that were sent fine before this issue started...

Does the security question pop up every time you try to send PM?

Yes, everytime. In fact, it even pops up everytime I post here...even just replying to you on this thread...

Maybe you have the browser set to block cookies for this site. That is why you have to answer the question every time. It appears that the forum software is not capable to deal with the security question script within the PM system and therefore you can't send PMs.

Check your cookies settings. There is nothing I can do to fix it on my side. Sorry.

I believe you should allow them to be accepted.

Just tried posting from my Iphone and I don't get the challenge question there...so, it's definitely on my laptop. I just tried adding d8bforum.com to allow cookies so we'll see what happens...thanks again!
