  4. Njord Market Google Login?

    in User guides and tech support

    Posted

    Ok. So some folk on old/older versions of FireFox have notified us that they were only receiving a blue screen and the site wasn't loading for them. We have just rectified this issue and so can these people now try again? You should get the site loading for you now.

     

    Works fine for me and a nice new looking set up, well done Shetlink Admin Team.

     
    Thank you. Much appreciated.

    Not to worry. You don't have to save anything. Removing / adding categories automatically saves as you're going along.

     

    You won't have got any of these messages from Shetlink as your email address wouldn't have been noted down as "verified". You would still have had all those categories selected though as it's exactly the same data against your account. With the old system you, as detailed above, might not have meant to have a list of categories selected. It was very easy to press the 'Subscribe' button on the first page/list of classifieds and for the system to then subscribe you to all categories - (which some people weren't then aware since they didn't get emails sent since they weren't verified).

     

    Upon now verifying your email address you've then started receiving the automatic "When advert added to a category send an email to those subscribed to that category".

     

    Perhaps, all watched categories should have just been removed for everyone but, it's each individuals data and to have gone and done that?! That opens up other various scenarios - some worse than this one.

     

    Hopefully, the various sign-posts to the notifications page, links and details in the emails themselves, etc. this post here on Shetlink - this situation can be seen to be rectifiable at worst?

    If you goto the "My Notifications - automatic system messaging" section

     

    https://www.njord.market/account/notifications accessible from your drop down members area from the top-right hand side will show you what notifications you had/have setup.

     

    Some users may have previously pressed on a top level Shetlink 'Subscribe' category button (which then subscribed to all lower categories) and are now finding when verifying their emails they are being sent multiple emails.

    ^^ No, this should be a stable base now. Some users however, are finding they might need to try either of the below suggestions to access Njord.

     

    Additional info: this will work for anybody: If you check out the post here: https://www.njord.market/faq#member Your login details for Shetlink will enable you to log into Njord. 

     

    However, a handful of users have needed to reset their passwords to enable them to login. It's the same data and underlying mechanism but, a reset will work for sure. You'll get back to a new baseline. This can be done from https://www.njord.market/forgot-password

     

    Google and Twitter users to follow instructions above in this thread or on the https://www.njord.market/faq#member section of Njord

    Hi iansimmins, yes, this isn't currently an option. Hold on we'll contact you. 2 secs
     
    [EDIT - as information for others]
    Detail to be found here: https://www.njord.market/faq#member
     

    We're sorry but, Google and Twitter accounts are not currently supported on Njord | Market. Your data is however, accessible and you can send a "Forgot your password?" reset to your registered email address to then access via your new email/username:password combination.


    To note - your registered email address can also be used as your username. So you just need a new password which can be obtained through accessing the https://www.njord.market/forgot-password section
     

    Anyone finding a "Something has gone wrong" error you can view https://www.njord.market/faq#loggingingonewrong Note: that a reset of your password will definitely sort out these blemishes. Refreshing the page and trying to log in again with your usual Shetlink details for 99% of cases will sort it.

    You might need to press - together to ensure you pull down latest rather as local cache to get any fixes.
     
    Apologies. Something went overboard in the night with scripts that are pulled from Google jsapi which we're now pulling locally instead.
     
    @wheelsup. that screen you're taken to is an overarching pm area.

    • New
    • My conversations
    • Drafts

    You land on "New" which shows various unread 'new' messages - rather as the usual inbox "My conversations" area where things might be lost over pages etc.
     

    [...] it doesn't cancel the red overlaid icon with the white numeric, it just keeps on racking up a higher running total whenever a new one comes in.


    ^^ Yes, indeed. If you end up at the "New" page .. then when clicking on the new item it will remove the red notification.

    This is like a brand new feature   :ponders:  or at least just until we get a proper fix put in place.

    Most of the pug / random breed adverts that pop up on Shetlink are unfortunately scam artists from lands far far away! If it looks too good to be true / dodgy in any way please report it immediately and we'll endeavour to take it down and ban that individual. Sometimes this process can be quick sometimes may take a little time to do - so please bear with us and keep yourself aware!

     

    With that, there are genuine people on here helping to re-home dogs. The user Mazeemoo for instance can on occasion post various dog breeds and is definitely a real-world person! So there are adverts you can be assured are honest and truthful!

     

    Hope this helps.

  19. Unable to access Shetlink from Apple OS or Windows 10

    in User guides and tech support

    Posted

    Hi. This is causing some problems for users. The server restarted last week and we believe this is a consequence of that restart and as the server was coming back up folk began to be redirected by a 301 error to a "defaultwebpage" before it got itself fully back up.
     
    You're either still being directed towards this "defaultwebpage" via that old 301 error caught in your cache and or your browser is having difficulty cross-referencing the SSL, we again believe as a consequence of the restart and some sort of browser caching.

     

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    People have had success with the following:

    1. Clear your browsers cache (please follow your browsers help guides on how to do this)
    2. Clear your routers cache (not always necessary - easiest to do via 'reset')
    3. Then follow below guide:

    The following should ideally flush any of your localised DNS: Domain Name System. Not to worry, it'll be replaced automatically as you carry on as normal but, hopefully will then take you directly to Shetlink!?

     
    WINDOWS

    1. On your keyboard, press Win+X to open the WinX Menu.
    2. Right-click Command Prompt and select Run as Administrator.
    3. Run the following command:

    ipconfig /flushdns
     
    If it's successful you should see a message much like the following:
     
    Windows IP configuration successfully flushed the DNS Resolver Cache.

     
    APPLE - follow these instructions

  23. Charges for putting adverts in classifieds

    in User guides and tech support

    Posted

    Hi. Yes, this is correct. Paid advertising was introduced into the trade/commercial and properties sections some time ago to assist in the continued and increasing overheads of keeping Shetlink 'on-the-road'.


     


    Thanks for your interest in Shetilnk and Shetlink classifieds; 'probably the best platform to advertise online in Shetland' in the same vein of a popular lager advert.

    This almost sounds like you're "Subscribed" to a category in the Classifieds? i.e. subscribed to have emails sent to you when one is entered into a category or at the top level thus receiving one from every category entry.

     

    Go to the Classifieds section and check whether a button at the top of the section has "Unsubscribe" on it (or whatever category you're receiving email from). If so you possibly by accident clicked on the "Subscribe" and not realised and are now getting an email from every category.

     

    Also check here: https://www.shetlink.com/index.php?app=core&module=usercp&tab=core&area=notifications

     

    EDIT: I've blanket removed all notifications being sent to you from the classifieds section. Sorry that this has been a frustrating time for you.
