pwhodges 1528 Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 It may be that I do things wrong, but it is ungracious about handling deletion and rearrangement of embedded pictures, in my experience. I'm also more used to typing in forums at the source level (it reduces having to switch back and forth between keyboard and mouse). But it's not a big concern, I admit.

ebr 14910 Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 I doubt you do things "wrong" but I think you are probably a very advanced subset of the audience . Would you agree that most users do not write in html and would be much more likely to screw something up with that than they would be to fix it?

pwhodges 1528 Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 It's html, then? In that case I can see your point! I was assuming it was BBcode, like most forums. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see what you mean now, yes, this how the new forum build work now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

softworkz 3335 Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 After all talk about problems and dislikes, here's something positive: I like the ability to add moderation messages like here: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/95511-emby-server-linux-vs-windows/ Very nice feature!

pwhodges 1528 Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 I notice that in the topic listing, the most recent post date no longer shows who the most recent poster was (I think it used to - certainly it's usual in other forums). Knowing that (especially if it's staff) certainly helps choose prioritise what to read. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It turns out that the name of the last poster is omitted when the browser window isn't so wide - in spite of the fact the there is lots and lots of room to continue displaying it (and the other forum I use that has this software is showing it in the same size window).

Guest Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 I have a request/question... Normally I use the 'Unread Content' option at the top.. I use both condensed and expanded views... Is it possible ( and I realize why default function is to go to the first post of the thread ), but is it possible one something has been read by a user to go directly to the 'Unread Replies' or last page. I get this function in Notifications function.. Was curious... The reason I assume for the default function is so that new users who have not read the full thread go to the beginning and start there. I have went through the forum, know how to search and have marked all read.. and wait for new posts... I follow posts I have posted in.. and get notifications for them.
