Welcome to the BCNA Online Network

Hi TonyaM. Unfortunately, there's no way to easily bulk-delete that many private messages. You can tick the checkbox next to the search box and delete everything page by page, but it's clunky.

If it's too much work, I suggest leaving them for now. We'll be rolling out a solution for this in a couple of months.

Does anyone know how to delete 10,000 messages? All my attempts have failed- this site is so frustrating.

Hi JD48, thankyou for your comment :) unfortunately spam is something that does occur in online spaces and I know it can be disconcerting to see spam. However please do rest assure that we do look over the network and while sometimes a spam post can slip through, this is no way means that privacy is ever compromised. If  you do see something on the network that you would like us to know about please do report the post using the report button or by contacting us - I hope this helps a little ~ jess

to admin... Site is (at the moment) being hit by spam posts so assuming fake profiles created... I hope profile info integrity has not been hit / compromised...

It's worth a lot! Thank you for the update Cosette <3

Thanks, InkPetal! For what it's worth, I use Firefox when I'm on the online network. We know that many of our members are using mobile phones and tablets to access the website and online network so that's a high priority too.

We have a ticket with our developers about those messy drop-down menus and just today we are reviewing a round of fixes and improvements coming to the registration process and the profiles in the next couple of months.

I've discovered that some of the issues are browser dependent. If you're using Chrome you'll be having the most trouble, the submit button simply won't work. If you jump in to Explorer it sends changes straight through, but you will still need to re-enter your birthday in that horrible click-through calendar. So going through Chrome won't submit changes to profiles, but Explorer will. I hope that helps a few people out until they can fix this. xo

While on the topic, just for whoever is on-task with fixing this particular element up, the very short list of issues with the profile forms that need resolving from user experience are

1. Browser compatibility
2. Auto-resetting calendar
3. Menu items.*

*I don't see it mentioned (there are a lot of posts, I may have missed it) but the drop-down menu's for Diagnosis, Family History, Marital status, and Health Care Professional are a total mess of repetition, spaces, errors, and some options - i.e. defacto, separated, widowed, don't exist.

If you're looking for someone to volunteer the work to just fix these few things up I can put out feelers and am sure I can find someone. Let me know.

Hi Cosette, I use Firefox mostly. I hope the  info helps fix things

Thanks for that detail about the script, Mishie. That kind of information is very helpful. We can pass that on to our developers. What browser are you using?

Ok lmao it just happened when I posted that message...couldn't copy/paste the error message but typed it out, here's what it says:

"A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, open the script in debugger, or let the script continue. Script: https://www.bcna.org.au/assests/js/vendor/jquery-2.1.1min.js:2. Buttons are Continue, Debug Script or Stop Script" Is that what happens to you Mona?
