I need help with private messages
Ive just noticed that I went on to Shannon's board https://bourcountryhome.runboard.com/
Now I saw a private message in the inbox at her board when I looked they are all private messages I have sent to people from my board.
What's the point in having private messager's if they are not private can anyone tell me why this is happening.

Good question Pat. I didn't even know that was possible.

Re: I need help with private messages
No one else is seeing your private messages. Shannt just made a link to get to private messages from her board. When she clicks on it, she sees her own messages. When you click on it you see your own messages. When I click on it, I see my own messages. No one sees anyone else's messages.

Re: I need help with private messages
I'm confused. Every board has an Inbox link. It has been there for as long as I can remember. And the bar at the top of the Runboard pages also has an Inbox link. That link works the same as the Control Panel link. Everyone who clicks on it only has access to their own personal Control Panel. And everyone who clicks on the Inbox link only has access to their personal Inbox.
If anyone copies the Inbox link to create their own personal link in a thread, or within the header/footer of their board, everyone who clicks on it will still only have access to their own personal Inbox:
https://bakheva.runboard.com/pm
Same goes for the Control Panel link:
https://bakheva.runboard.com/control_panel
The Inbox/Control Panel links are the same for everyone, but the codes Thor has put in place behind the scenes prevents anyone from being able to get into any Inbox but their own. It is that way on every message board system.

Re: I need help with private messages
I'm confused, too. I don't see any inbox links at that board that aren't at this board and every other board. Even if a board admin put an additional link on their board, it would still take people to their own inbox, not to anyone else's.

Re: I need help with private messages
Pat, are you talking about the link here...
Those are the only Inbox links I see at that board, and they are on every board, plus the first one is on every page throughout Runboard, whether you're at a board or not.
But like I said, even if someone created an additional link somewhere, all it's going to do is take people to their own inbox, just like the two inbox links in my screen shot, because that's what it was designed to do.

Re: I need help with private messages
Its the first time in all the years Ive been on runboards noticed that when you go on another site of runboards you can see your PM that you have sent from your own board when I asked Jewel she said she was thinking the same.
If you are all saying that the person on the other runboards site cant read your PM then that is okay I would not of noticed this if I'd not gone on Shannon's board and it said 1 in inbox then when I clicked on it all I could see was a PM sent to me from my board from Jewel.
Then I had one sent to me from Margie when I looked again on Shannon's board that was in her inbox too.

Thanks Susa, Jox and LG.
In other words PMs are secure.

Yes! PMs are secure. No one but you can see your PMs.
