Title: New Forum Troubleshoot - New Posts on Top
Post by: jtex316 on January 23, 2006, 01:54:04 pm
Hey everyone, I had a problem viewing this whole Message Board and fixed it, so if you have a similar problem, listen up.  My profile had "View most recent posts on top" checked ON.  This basically reverses the order in which you view posts (so the first post would be at the very bottom, and the last post on top)

This sucks, so if you're reading messages and they look ass-backwards, go into settings and uncheck that box.

I couldn't find what you were talking about, but this new board brings a feature I've loved on other boards - Quick Reply.

You have to go into your profile to turn it on, but it allows you to reply to a thread without clicking "Reply" with a text window at the bottom of the thread.  Pimp-a-licious, if you ask me.

Only drawback is the little clicky buttons aren't available for quick reply.

Just thought I'd bring a feature to light that some people may not know about.

I don't think there is a spellchecker, because I'm fairly sure that "bothced" would have set it off.  ;)

When you want to reply, you click the REPLY button and it takes you to a new screen with a text box.   The quick reply feature has that text box ready to go at the bottom of all messages.
