In all seriousness I love this site just the way it is. Thank you!

 

[PCJenni]

how about a "like" button similar with the thanks button

 

[finley1991]

Everything is fabulous and I will second what Jenni said! We need a LIKE or WAHOO button on here so we can cheer each other on!!!!

[akaskydebil]

Ok the dancing banana just made me laugh! I love them!

 

[Inomiamenda]

Can we get an "I'm with genius" smiley too?

 

[BethCooks4U]

I just thought of an improvement that would be nice and I know you are working on it. Make it easier for new people to figure out how to get on here. I know they keep changing the PC website so it's a challenge to come up with something to show you they are a director. Maybe have a place behind the apron when you give a hint so we can help them figure it out too.

 

[Sheila]

It's rare for Beth & I to agree, but she's right! The wording has been pretty confusing to new people & I've had to walk 3 of them through it by having them copy & paste the directions & e-mail it to me so that I could figure out what was being asked.

Maybe something like: Sign into Consultant's Corner > hover over Consultant & Leadership Training > read the name of the 2nd link down & type that phrase as the password to join this forum.

So they would have to type Director Express 2011 as their password.

 

[ChefBeckyD]

I agree. I've had new directors message me asking for help, because they can't figure out how to find what they need to gain access to this site.

 

[BethCooks4U]

I think everyone can see the link to consultant and leadership training but I could be wrong. With the new website there isn't much if anything on the main page to use that is D only so I would suggest going to the download section and pick something with the D on it and then decide the question. Of course Deb already knows this... :blushing:

 

[Chef Kearns]

Deb, it would be great if we could pay a lifetime $20 or something for our membership on this site like we could on Chef Success. I like that I no longer have to worry about my membership over there and I get caught off guard every year for this site.

 

[Sheila]

Beth, I was just using it as an example of how to break down the instructions, not asking her to use that as the password.

 

[PamperedChefDebi]

The absolute ONLY thing I could imagine changing is the process to reset out password. LMAO!!! It's broken..... But the site rocks!

 

[envitegencese]

I understand the time out feature, but if I haven't logged in a few days and then I time out, all the "new posts" are gone. I see that Quick Links offers "today's posts". I would love to see "post from yesterday" or "posts from past week". That would be helpful to me.

 

[DebPC]

Some awesome ideas you guys! Thanks for your feedback! Greg is out of town for a week- but when he gets back we'll talk. We are limited by the software- but if we can make it happen we will.

 

[drammerbuhoy]

HAHAHAH!!! We need a Jean Jonas WAHOO button!!!!!!

 

[DebPC]

Greg will be adding smiles soon. Unfortunately we can't add a Wahoo button due to software constraints. Also due to the expense per member of operating this site compared to CS, we can't offer a Gold membership here.
Thanks for all the imput!

[Nanisu]

I personally think this is such an awesome sight....could we add a "hugs" button?

 

[Sheila]

Yea! Some of the smileys are up!!!

:happyforyou:

:woohoo:

 

[baychef]

:welcome: to the new smilies!!! Glad to have you aboard!
:happyforyou::clap::woohoo:


Oh and I love this one.....:bawl:
And this one:veryfunny:

 

[flemings99]

I miss the spell check button on the right top when we are posting, like we have on cs.

 

[chefkathy]

I miss the spell check button on the right top when we are posting, like we have on cs.

Use Firefox as your browser--spell check is built in.

 

[Sheila]

I also use Firefox. I had no idea CS even had a spell check button! LOL

 

[baychef]

I did not know this either, Sheila. I don't use Firefox but try to use proper spelling unless I get tired then all bets are off!

 

[BethCooks4U]

You could also use an iPad to get on here. The spell check on the iPad works with these sites. But it sometimes changes things you don't want changed so you have to watch. lol

 

[DebPC]

not possible, but you can use the advanced search function to find threads in a date range- Greg
