Interesting, so when you go to the following link you don't see any messages?:

I could read the message from your link just then. But the black bar bit is still blank.

Sorry I'm a bit confused. What are you expecting to see?

The black menu at the top will take you to the link I just shared with you. Are you expecting to see the full message in the black bar?

What I mean is - on the black line at the top it says 'my messages' with a drop down arrow next to it, (and it did say 1, but that's gone now). When I clicked, a drop down box opened, and that drop down box was just white. I was expecting that white box to contain either the text of the message, or a link to the message.

Maybe I've misunderstood what a 'message' is. I was expecting it to be a private text viewable only to me. Is it that all forum posts are classed as 'my messages', in which case I can see them. 

I think I'll take a tablet and have a lie down in a darkened room.

The white box that appears says "read your messages". If you click this, it will take you to your messages. You are correct that they are private to you.

The White box was totally blank, with no text whatsoever, but, I have checked it just now, and it does have the text in you describe.

Thanks for fixing it.

Not sure if I fixed anything  0_0 but glad it's working now. Come back here and report if you have any more issues with it. Might have been a blip.
