hey, i tried a quick search to see if anyone else commented on it, but couldn't find anything ... whenever i go to give kma it takes me to a blank page with url forum.freeipodguide.com/karma.php?[etcetc] .... and doesn't credit the karma for the person, just wondering if it's just my work computer or if everyone's having this happen

When you give someone karma, refresh the page. It'll show.

If not, then it's even more broken than it had been.

) Btw, you're not the only who has had a problem. Which is why I mentioned refreshing (some don't think about that).

I truly hope you weren't offended by my question, but I have worked in customer support in the past and 9 times out of 10 the issue is the lowest common denominator (e.g., "Do you have the network cable plugged into the wall jack? "What's a network cable?").

It wasn't until after I worked customer support that I became a LOT more patient with customer support when I called them (although, I generally give them a large list if things I had tried already).

Everytime I press it, it takes me to an intermediary page but does not forward to the page I clicked it from.

Admin?

karma doesnt work if you try to change it through someone profile, it onl works if you do in a post that someone has commented on. it should reload the page and take you back to where you clicked the Karma link, but it wont look as though its changed.

just refresh and it should work......at least thats how it works for me.

ill try and give you + Jake to see if it works D should go to 42.

Local shop down the road. The owner's really nice, the food and coffee is good, and they have free wifi. I'll be there in a few mins )

Okay, fixed. It's now nice and smart and sends you back to the page you came from, but forces you to reload it (so you can see the adjusted karma). It works on both profiles and regular pages.
