Request for site feature

@MrRoboto said in Two features I miss from the old forum:

1.: Indicator, in which threads I have posted
In the old forum, every thread had a little icon below the title indicating that I have posted in it. I loved it for two reasons: Checking out old games of mine and also find games very easily, even when I already read the most recent post earlier without being able to download the file.

Where was the indicator?

Found it:

2.: Path at the bottom (not that important)
After posting in a thread, I am on the bottom of the screen. In the old forum, the path to the thread was at the very top AND at the very bottom, which meant I could easily click on it to return to the subforum. The new forum lack this and only have it at the top.

Some of these things are theme dependent. Right now we’re using the default theme but it is possible to either make requests to the NodeBB developers or create a child theme. I do eventually want to create a child theme. Or possibly use a theme called Onyx.

Sure thing, will do, thanks again

It sorts the results so that you can find your results more easily.

Hmm for example, try a themed debate, much like the one I had with Tall Paul the other day.

IE, you discuss a topic, and all your responses/shots have to be in puns in reference to a theme…

say for example, a LOTR theme, regarding gun control laws.

“Your point of view SHALL NOT PASS!”

“One does not simply, walk around with a loaded gun.”

“What is this Devilry!”

ETC

@Razor:

I am against this karma/smite/applaud stuff, it adds nothing.

If anything, why not do as the other A&A clubs, have a count of how many tournaments you won, or how many games you won etc. Now that would be something to respect. Most of us come here to play games, not to smite each others posts.

And about all the ghost accounts. I used to be Adlertag in every A&A sites of the world, but when I got divorced, I could no longer log in because I had used my ex-wifes e-mail adress, and she was not very cooperative, so I had to create new accounts as Razor. The other accounts like Bizarro tag and Foxytag are not mine, and I want admin to delete them, because they are not real accounts, but some funny jokes that I suspect IL has made.

So are you saying you got divorced so you could marry Foxxy ???  I’m confused.

At this rate, IL will be sunning himself on some remote Carribean island this winter!  :-D

Djensen:

I have been on other sites (namely DnD Online Games and the Star Wars Gaming Club) where a feature is installed on their SMF forums that allows you to go to your last post in a thread.

The feature is great in that it allows you to go to your last post and read all the replies from that point on cutting down on missed replies that might be saying the same thing you want to say or that you might want to rebut in your reply. (Sometimes you go to a thread and think “yea, I was on page 4 last time, so I’ll start there” but your reply was really on page 3 and one or more were posted under it that you don’t see when you go to page 4.)

Any chance of getting that installed here as well?

Jenny, the most humble one! (And Omni-Radiant, as always!!!)

Oh, another thing. Drupal projects were a part of the “Google Summer of Code.” Meaning that Google felt it a worth while open source project to sponsor for summer interns.

However, I think they also sponsored some other CMS software packages.
