Thanks guys! Just looking at this and reading it all I have figured out that I am not the only one having a couple issues!!

I Love The Cat Pages, so I appreciate everyone trying to make it work for us!

I am having a problem when I try to request Jamie (jcat's kitty) as a friend. Once I choose the option, the names of my kitties don't appear (the box is blank), and I can't complete the request. I have added other cats as friends, but have only run into this problem with Jamie.

Jamie cat is already a friend of yours. If you go to your cat's pages, you will see his picture in the lower part of the page.

Try this with your pictures from Photobucket.

Click on Edit which is above your picture.


You will then see the full size picture. Right mouse click on the picture and select "Save Image As". This allows you to save the resized picture back to your computer which you can then upload to the pages.

Missed one step there, Jana
... after clicking on "Edit" above the thumbnail, then click on "Resize" above the full-size pic -- the menu drops down and click on "640x480" and after that refreshes then do the right-click thingy. Otherwise, you'll just get the same image back from Photobucket that was too big to upload to TCS in the first place.

Thanks Tim. I was assuming that it had already been resized.

There is one change I'd like to see -- when the "Cat Bot" sends an email notification of another user adding one of your cats, it says "his cat's network......, his request." I'd think that a more gender-neutral wording would be more appropriate, especially considering a majority of members are female.

I can't find my cat pages...I made them a while ago and then I wansn't on for a few weeks and when I have been on lately and they are gone. So is the button thing that was up by the user CP, FAQ, member list and stuff. Where'd they go? It doesnt even have the button that says cat pages? Also it doesnt let me send PM's, is it maybe because I'm under a certain number of posts? But I remember being able to acess cat pages and send PM's before on here

When you first joined, you weren't yet properly classified as a minor, so you temporarily had access to PMs . As far as the cat pages are concerned, this post gives you information about them:

You should be able to view individual cat pages by clicking on the thumbnails beside usernames, including your own.

I've been having trouble reading cat pages that have more than one page of cats.

For example, bnwalker's profile. If I click the link to go to Page 2, instead of going to page two of bnwalker's page, it goes to my page instead.

There's only one page per cat, although there can be several pages of friends of that particular cat. If you want to see another of her cats' pages, you have to click on another thumbnail.

The problem is with the links in the middle of the page. Clicking on pages 2 & 3 will take you to your own cat pages.

Not sure if this is in the right part of the forum...

When you click on a member's profile and they have more than 8 cats, and you click on page 2 to see the rest of their cats, the link brings you to your own cat page.

So for example, say I click on "white cat lover"'s profile. http://www.thecatsite.com/forums/member.php?u=14912
You see the first 8 cats, but then when you click to see page 2 of white cat lover's cats, then it goes to my own cat profiles.

So instead of going here:
http://www.thecatsite.com/forums/mem...d=14912&page=2

It takes you here:
http://www.thecatsite.com/forums/cat.php?do=viewcats

ETA: Oops, I didn't see the sticky about the technical problems with the cat pages. This problem is already in there. Just ignore the crazy lady typing...

I want to create cat pages for my kitties, but nothing happens when I click on the link for Cat Pages, or the little arrow next to it (there's no drop-down menu showing up). What's going on???
