Austin or Jonathon I’ve been trying to send in an order all weekend. This is 3 times in a row that I will have to wait until Monday and call my order in over the phone. I am trying to take
advantage of the free shipping weekend but it will not accept the code or my login. Every time I call in my order they assure me my problem is fixed . Can I get some help here. I work alot of 12hr nights and when things aren’t busy that is when I like to shop and order. When I get home I go to bed and won’t be up until 3pm. So I don’t have much time to get an order called in before I have to go back to work. Thanks

Not sure if it is just me, but since yesterday Meatgistics keeps telling me I’ve lost connection. It keeps dropping repeatedly on wifi and mobile. Not sure what is going on with that. It will let me post, but they don’t show up for me for a few minutes. I get notification icons, but the notifications themselves don’t want to load

Couldn’t find a place to leave feedback on Walton’s, so trying here… should be same folks, and Austin should be able to fix quickly.
Ordered some additives and parts including grinder knives. Fast delivery, happy with product. However, knives were just slipped into plastic sleeve with nothing holding them in, and of course they came out during shipping and cut into the additives bag. Luckily just a wee bit of dextrose lost, no biggie. BUT THESE KNIVE WRAPS SHOULD BE TAPED CLOSED, AND THEY SHOULD BE BUNDLED IN A WRAP OF NEWSPAPER OR SOMETHING SO THEY DON’T FLOP AROUND AND CUT STUFF OPEN!
Here’s a pic showing them loose in box as delivered.

I too am getting an email for every post on this web site. Yesterday and this morning I have turned off every alert in my settings. Still getting emails for every post. Would like to contribute more posts but I will just make the problem worse. HELP!

The watching, not watching button seems to not be working.
In my settings I have everything shut off and not watching button clicked. I get emails every time someone lets their fingers walk.

My menu bar is missing some items an notifications. I can’t seem to find anyplace to sign out and back in to see if that fixes it. E59A0FAE-D6BF-40CA-877E-DB16185BE371.png

Used to be able to read what threads or topics were being replied to, and decide if interested. New notifications pace only displays 1 line, not enough to see anything but replier name. So you can’t tell at a glance if it is a thread you are interested in.Screenshot_20220630-141002_Samsung Internet.jpg

It seems the search function is not working properly. It looks like it is only returning results from recent post. Brat only returned 5 post, all posted within the last week. Salami only 1 post. Checked the advanced settings and even hit clear preferences.

So, I don’t know how many people got the chance to join us today but we launched the new waltons.com! No more waltonsinc.com, though that will still work as we have forwarded all of the pages and products. Aside with some email password issues that Austin fixed like a straight up “g” it went fairly smooth!

This thread is where we would ask that people report issues to. For the first few days I will try to check it every few hours or so. But guys, I gotta say, I’m feeling soooo much better about this platform. We can actually fx things ourselves, when I tell it to do something it actually does it! Coupons are a breeze (and the 2nd best state post will have an update tomorrow if not tonight)

If it continues to be smooth we will start actually putting out meat processing videos again!!

Thank you all for hanging with us through the last year. It was not smooth and it was often no fun but you guys took over meatgistics and helped eachother out. I will now aggressively wrestle control back from you all with bans, deleting of post counts, abuse, shadow banning and all around acting like the diminutive dictator I have always felt like I was meant to be!

Is anyone else having an issue opening the “Black Raspberry Maple Jalepeno Bacon” thread, or getting it to show as being read. It keeps popping up as unread on my topics, but I get the error message if I try to open it.

I can’t open the thread with this recipe or the one where someone else states the same issue

I want to purchase your 50lb mixer, specifically from you to support Waltons. I like most everything about Walton’s that I’ve seen, and want to support you with my money purchases. Like a lot of folks, I bought equipment elsewhere before I discovered Waltons, and now I want to use your mixer with my existing grinder. Your 50lb mixer has 40 questions, 27 of them are asking if it can hookup to other mixers. The answer to every one of them, “we don’t know, not designed for it…”

All 27 people wanting to buy your mixer had to ask these questions because your given product info and specs are very incomplete, and don’t contain many actual specs to help folks make decisions. It would be very helpful for prospective customers if someone could walk over with a micrometer and some calipers, and take some measurement pics of the spline and collar hookup, and post them. It would be a good move if you addressed the problem/opportunity that those questions all represent.

I’ve watched your podcasts, seen your great online presence, and I think you have a motivated team in place that can improve in meeting your customer needs in this product area.

You have a golden opportunity here that comes from fortuitous design of your 50lb mixer: the outer diameter of the collar is 2-1/16in, which will slip into the larger Inner Diameter collare for LEM, Meat!, Cabelas, and Weston mixers that use a 3/4" 6-spline drive shaft… allowing YOUR mixer to be the only one of the bunch that might be almost universal. The only thing holding your sales back is you documenting this fit.

People already own those grinders or they wouldn’t ask about them. So posting those specs doesn’t lose you and grinder purchases, it just fails to SELL your mixer and capture business that previously went to LEM and Cabelas. I love your awesome business, and would really like to see folks be able to buy your mixer, even if they own another brand grinder. Your 50lb mixer DOES WORK with several competing grinders, I have read at least 3 threads here with customers posting pics and successful hookups. You don’t have to commit that it will work or take on liability, just post the measurements and let your very smart users make their own informed decisions.

Even better, if your were really gung ho, design and sell spline/collar adaptors for LEM, Cabelas, and Weston grinders, and your smaller grinders. make your mixer universal. You would take over the market.

Hoping for the best for your business, and that you take this suggestion in the positive light I intended.

I have been trying to place an order for an hr. tells me account is locked. Am I not doing something right

Hey guys, just FYI there was an issue earlier with Meatgistics. I had NobeBB fix it but it looks like it was unreachable for a while. Also, later this week there will be a 30 minuted maintenance down-time as we are getting pretty close to fill here. Thats a good problem to have!

JohnG5 , Austin Walton , Jonathon Is anyone else getting this “Forbidden” error during the past few days when trying to post, respond, or give someone an attaboy? Recycle & it quickly goes away & you can post, until closing out & then coming back to Meatgistics again later.

Looks like it is a known issue with NodeBB

https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB/issues/9194

Can anyone tell me exactly what they were doing when they are doing this? I see calldoctoday Was posting, and responding but everything I can find that is reported says it is a pinning issue, so we may have something new here. I am contacting NodeBB to see if they have any ideas.

I no longer wish to receive e-mails, please advise

I was reviewing the Meatgistics recipe here and noted an error on the amount of Surecure #1 recommended.

https://meatgistics.waltonsinc.com/topic/846/specialty-sausage-103-making-landjaeger.

The meat block shown is too small for 1 ounce of Surecure #1 and ECA.

Like most seasonings, the normal package unit for Walton’s Landjaeger is for a 25 lb meat block

It has now been three days with no Meatgistics email. Look at my setting, both with Meatgistics and my email account. Can’t find the problem.

HELP!

FYI, search function isn’t working well right now. I have restarted and rebuilt and restarted the f***m as well as making sure all categories are included in search and that does not appear to have done anything. The last thing I can do is reindex the search but that can take a while and might take the site down. I plan on doing this when I wake up tomorrow morning to minimize slowdowns.
