Have we lost the ability to send private messages?
I looked for it but couldn't find the button.

"Send new message"

Should be on the left waaaay at the bottom
under the poll. If its not there can you post up a quick screencap of that area so we can see whats missing?

Thanks,
Send new message

I think boris has the same issue I have, the button on peoples profile that used to be there for direct messaging is missing (has been since one of the site updates), but also when I try to reply to an old message I am told I don't have permission.

I covered this issue in my thread about website issues -> https://crazy-fools.co.uk/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?id=41967

I thought I'd write test messages but neither of your names appear in the dropdown. Mine does apparently.

Just sent you a testmessage, the sending itself seems to work. The list of selectable usernames seems to be quite long but missing some users. Draze and Discharge are missing, for example

OK that works and with an animated "new" alert. Unfortunately I can't reply.
