Thank you so much for the help...who would have thought you had to find a window to go thru when there are so many different doors to the same place<lol> Got it ! Kay --------- I have the same problem. The only way I can make "contact the poster" work, is to click on the "admin center" link on the bottom of the page. Then click on the board I want, find the message, then click on the posters name, and then the "contact the poster" link works correctly. I have to be logged in to Ancestry (Guest) to do this........
