@SS-GEN Well to be fair, donations here don’t go to supporting TripleA and its lobby/dice servers just the A&A website/forum. So I would encourage players to consider splitting their donation if they post a lot here but use TripleA and its servers as well. You can go to the TripleA website or forum to donate:
https://triplea-game.org/
https://forums.triplea-game.org/

Ordered. Good work. If you could do the Bismarck profile on Grey, that would be cool too

@barnee ok I see what’s happening. It’s taking me further down the page sometimes where suggested topics is and I can’t see the unreads. I just need to scroll up. Sorry to bother you

@Panther @barnee

Thanks everyone.

@djensen said in Adding post location to individual posts?:

I know what the issue is. We have too many icons in the nav bar and the logo is too wide. When the window shrinks, it all goes to a new line and messes everything up. :frowning: :grimacing:

But only if you stay in windowed mode. If you stretch it back out and then re-shrink it, the line with the post location drops down (see my last screenshot for how that looks). If you knew how to make the line drop down, without needing to stretch and shrink the screen, you would be golden. Assuming the software let’s you do that…

I’ve seen questions about clicking topics and how to get to the end of a discussion. There are a few things to know about topics and navigating to posts.

Pick up Where you Left Off

First, the forum keeps track of where you left off reading for every topic. If you’ve never read a topic then clicking the topic title will take you to the first post. If you scroll and make it to post number 26, then the next time you click that topic, you’ll start on topic 27 (if there are 41 posts then you’ll still be sent to #27 so that you can read 27 thru 41)

I don’t know why the gif isn’t animating but if you click the title, scroll a few posts into the topic, go back, click the title again, you’re exactly where you left off.

You need to be logged in for this to work.

Jump to End from Topic List

Next, just like the old forums, you can jump to the last post of any topic by clicking on the date in the last (far right) column of each topic. The links are highlighted in yellow below

Quick Navigation in a Topic

While you are reading a topic you can also jump to the end or the beginning very easily. A the the top of a post in the title bar there are some navigation controls.

Double arrow up: first post (circled in yellow below)
Double arrow down: last post (circled in orange below)

The single arrows are basically page-up and page-down.

@SS-GEN said in How does one access the old forum ?:

When I looked back I just scrolled back in pages to find what I was looking for. But I think you can only do 1 page at a time and there will be less pages than old forums
Just look for the topic or de Gaulle topic.

yea i’ve done that before. came across that link while searching was wondering why it didn’t work.

@Panther Thanks

@Panther :+1:

@yanksaldaway
That’s what we have the dedicated game forums for.
Rules questions, strategy discussions and related topics go there :slightly_smiling_face:

Not really. Must be me then.

@Panther heh heh Thanks Panther : )

Was pretty sure you could but I’m running slow today : )

Maybe these?

Event Planner or Events Beamdog WotC

I think this is a slightly different topic from the one I started but I still want to consider the idea.

This is the category for variants: https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/category/13/other-axis-allies-variants

You can also use the search box for Barbarossa.

@Imperious-Leader I think it’s semi-officially Classic. The A&A Wikipedia mentions it and I think it references the Larry Harris Game Design site.

And don’t worry about mine, honestly. Thanks again for the offer.

@Intrepid cool i learned something new today : )

@djensen I know what you mean, and I agree.

So yea, I like the rounded square for categories too :)

@Tizkit what is really like it’s a drop down menu for the extras on desktop.
