I have a problem accessing my PMs, and would like to know if it's just me.

When I arrive to the site, I get a pop-up stating I have a PM. Using Firefox, in the past, I would click on [okay] to view it, and then [cancel] to open in a separate window.(since FF wouldn't allow it)

Now it takes me to a 404 page.

I just received a PM a few minutes ago and at the first window I clicked OK, and then the 2nd window I clicked cancel which views it in the same window I thought it was. And it took me to the PM fine.

working for me too

Did it happen on the main page? Seems like it has done that for me too.

It's because the private message popup is using links relative to the forums directory which don't exist in the root one.

OK so sounds like the fix is to change the links to absolute links rather than relative.

I know that's the procedure while using FF. But mine never worked off the main page of this new skin.
