Guest guest Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 I just went again. It took me to http://floatingworldweb.com/plex/#- 11639, and then to http://floatingworldweb.com/plex/. I tried clicking the words on the bottom two thirds of page, but none are linked (they didn't appear to be when my mouse was over them, so I tried clicking them anyways, and none took me anywhere). Is it just the top of the page that we are suppose to use, and the bottom is a picture? I must admit, it looked overwhelming to me. I will go check out the top links.

Guest guest Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 When I click on the direct link you provided below it goes to the MMS page; however, when going through the original address provided it does not go to that page, it automatically redirects me to the page I previously posted. There must be a redirect problem in the html coding, or set on the server.

In any case, http://mmsweb.info is the link to use initially, and it is working. > I tried clicking the words on the bottom two thirds of page, but none > are linked (they didn't appear to be when my mouse was over them, so > I tried clicking them anyways, and none took me anywhere).

The top pane -- the Plex -- is what you use for navigation. Note than you can adjust its size by moving the dividing line up or down, or hide/open the plex window with the arrow in the top left. > I must admit, it looked overwhelming to me.

Guest guest Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 Hey, it's cute. But it's a journey into your mind trying to discover where the discussions are. Can't find any link that says discussion and I don't need to play cat and mouse, thankyou. If we have to play around to find it, sorry, don't have the time. Make it easy, or forget it. Tried the Health link, nothing on MMS. Bye bye, baby. Have a great day! Kathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 I am sorry but I have been looking at this page for several minutes and can not even find the HEALTH GOODS link. Can you just put the Health GOODS link up and not all the other? Thank you.

In any case, HEALTH GOODS is right there among the Parent links, which are those above the central one (MMS). The links below are Children, and denote the subcategories. http://floatingworldweb.com/plex/#-11639 If you need HELP understanding the navigation system, click on HELP among the items along the top, or feel free to ask.. This navigation system is unique among interfaces, in that it is not simply a hierachical tree like other data systems. Rather any item can be connected to any other item as Child, Parent, or Jump, making it much more flexible, and mirroring the way the brain actually connects data. Any item can have multiple parents, and thus be approached from many different routes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 OK Got it. the only way I could get your link to work and take me to the MMS page was to type in the - and 11639 to the page your click link took me to. Then hold my shift key and hit enter. I think it would be much easier to just put in the regular link to that page of: http://www.miraclemineral.org/index.php > > > If you have been looking at the MMS page , why do you want to go to a > higher level category?

The domain http://MMSweb.info is set to redirect to http://floatingworldweb.com/plex/#-11639 , but since some people seem to be having trouble with that, I will create an intervening page. One thing you might try if you are having trouble is clearing your cache and reloading the link. Do you know how to do that? If not, tell me your OS and browser. This is something everyone should know how to do. If something goes wrong in accessing a page, often the wrong destination will stay in your cache, and you will keep being sent there unless you clear the cache. CTRL-F5 usually does it, but there are more thorough ways as well. > I think it would be much easier to just put in the regular link to that > page of: > http://www.miraclemineral.org/index.php > I don't understand what you mean. Put in where? The whole point of this is to bring together all the online data about MMS, not merely to provide another way of getting to Jim Humble's page.

Guest guest Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 I contacted my web hosti about the problem, and got this reply: Discussion Notes Support Staff Response Dear Case, Thank you for contacting online support. Currently, the domain mmsweb.info is currently forwarding to http://floatingworldweb.com/plex/#-11639 without error on our end. If people are unable to be properly forwarded to this site, it is most likely due to their browsers being unable to support the #-11639 section of the URL. Please let us know if we can assist you in any other way. Regards, Quinn C. Online Support Representative I'd be interested to know what browsers have been unable to access the URL properly. Firefox on XP is fine..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 Internet Explore won't take me, but Mozilla Firefox did. Don't know what version IE I have, I have problems with my memory and either have to look up how to do many things I haven't done in a while or have someone walk me through it. I've done lot's with computers too, I use to be able to remember all kinds of stuff, so it does bother me...but you do the best you can.

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2007 Report Share Posted November 22, 2007 susan wrote: I have been on your site and I appreciate the artistic intent of the site. But it is a little confusing to navigate. I consider myself to be a serious researcher (just ask my husband!), but if it takes too long to find what I am looking for I will go elsewhere because there are so many other sites with a wealth of information to waste on trying to navigate a confusing site. OK, it's great to hear your explanation but it tells me nothing about what is causing your confusion. If it is a matter of the link not redirecting properly, I understand. If you were able to get to where "MMS" is at the center of the plex, the subcategories seem pretty straightforward. If you only got to the TOPICS page, then it would not be as easy to find your way to the MMS section. This is why I bought a domain to point directly to it, but it seems not to be working for those souls who have not yet realised how superior Firefox is to all the other browsers... Another point is that the software maker has not yet made it possible to search the site in such a way as to go to the place in the plex corresponding to the search results. There is an unmarked search box in the lower left, but it only searches among nodes that you have been on or near during the current session. I am pressing to have full search capabilities added, but for now the site is not to be treated as a search engine. There are enough of those around for the kind of one-pointed research you speak of preferring. In creating it so far I have concentrated more on finding and linking appropriately what I consider worthwhile material. As I become aware of certain sections of the "brain" becoming dense enough to constitute regions, I create submaps, such as what you can find if you click on LOOK along the top. Until that is done, if I want to suggest an area to someone, I give the direct link to a node in that area, or create a domain name pointing to it, e.g. http://mmsweb.info, with the consequent problems that have only now been brought to my attention. I make no claim that this is intended as a research tool, but if decent search capabilities were added, it would be more easily recognisable as a well-chosen selection of material. Once you know where the MMS node is, and understand the Parent/Child/Jump system, it will be obvious that it can serve the purpose of organising and making accessible the information that otherwise is constantly being repeated as new people join the list and ask the same questions, especially if people who I assume want this information readily available make suggestions for content and interconnections.
