Login and select 'User Account'. On the lower portion of that page it is under the section labeled 'Support'.

I personally had a challenge logging in because I was using a smart phone to view the page and the link to login wasn't displayed. It was too far to the right of the screen and wouldn't scroll any further to the right. I spent five minutes looking around the page before rotating my phone to see if the change in perspective helped. The link to login was visible when my phone was on a horizontal orientation.

You can retrieve the same problem which is also solving by smartphone orientation change here.

I see it now.

So it's not on the forum, and you have to log in before it displays. Does Fred not want many donations...? This is insane.

He definitely makes it hard to find. :?

I find the more recent updates in the web page cleaner but harder to navigate. I have a hard time guessing how things are organized and where the parts are that interest me.

These problems about just [donate] button, I solved them by asking the bank identifier of Fantasy Software for near 10 years. I pay directly via my bank. Since 10 years, good bye paypal !

Now the problem for me is I have money when Fred is busy (it is the second time).

When I had money, I mailed Fred : nothing ! I ask myself if Fred does not look my account balance, and wait that I am under a money step to work a new update of Purebasic !!

Sure we will be synchronized a day...

Hello Fred,
I would really appreciate if the PureBasic team could fix the ODBC interface for macOS.

Here is the bug report:
viewtopic.php?f=24&t=72104

and here is the temporary solution:
https://www.purebasic.fr/german/viewtop ... 73#p350773

The database program that I wrote for Windows needs a macOS version.
But the size of this program is huge and replacing all the Database commands with the workaround equivalent is very cumbersome.
(as it needs to run on both operating systems I can't just do a one time replace of all the Database commands...)

Thanks for reading

@Fred

Could you place the list of "a few more fixes in beta 3"?

Thanks!

Is there any hope that the Linux version will be adapted to modern distributions?
Or will there be a list of distributions on which there is a chance of workability?
So far, everything as indicated on the link
viewtopic.php?f=15&t=73256

p.s. In the example of xubuntu it turns out that 16.04 is no longer there, and 20.04 is not there yet.
