I click on "take this mission" but I can't actually do anything. For example, I click on the Preview mission, and it takes me to the shoppe.

Are you having any problems with the Toolbar? Any Add-on conflicts that you haven't resolved yet?

And, for the Preview mission--it does take you to the Shoppe. It is a tour of the Pmog site, and if you aren't getting pop-ups, it is a Toolbar snafu. Try backing up and starting over...

No, I am not having that problem.

I am using Firefox 3.0 beta 5. Could that have something to do with it?

There have been some FF3 v5 problems...but I outlined several problems...not just one.
1) Your Toolbar is working? As in, you can deploy Tools? Are you just not seeing the orange pop-up overlays? Can you send me a Pmail from your Toolbar, please?

2) You do not have extension conflicts? Are you sure? Did you use a process of elimination?

3) And then...did you check that link?
And last, but not least, check out the #pmog channel on freenode.net. Someone should be around to chat.

First, ditch FF 3.0 I have not heard of an instance yet where FireFox 3.0 beta worked well with Pmog.

Second, more details. Tell us exactly what you clicked, and exactly what it did, and what it didn't do. Try to be as precise as possible, we can't help out if we don't know exactly what the problem is!

Third, go to tools-->addons and check that your PMOG addon is 0.412 if not update it, that could definately cause your problem.

Fourth, disable all other Addons, and see if PMOG works then. If so, reactivate your addons one at a time to see which one caused the problem.

Fifth, try taking another mission, sometimes missions just fubaur on you and don't work.

Sixth listen to the Pixie...The Pixie is Good...

Thanks for the vote of confidence, Etherel!
More info would help anyone reading the forums help to fix the problem...

My toolbar periodically works, but usually does not. Yesterday it randomly worked and I was able to send a message and get the popups.

Other times, I can just get money, but can't do anything and can't get the pop-ups.

And we still don't have any specifics...
Does getting a fresh browser help out?
Do you usually work with a lot of open tabs?
Multiple windows?

I have a similar problem starting missions - I've found that I can start them in a stand-alone browser window, rather than the cascade of tabs I have open in my main menu. Give it a try...
