If you could have ANYTHING you wanted here at MM...

I see.   The ": "  Is in front of that.

Why is it like that?

Because I had to play a trick on the system to make it do this... it is quite counter to the way it is supposed to work.  I can't get rid of the colon - it is there following an empty name field.

I am rather proud of the solution though!

Something that would float my boat would be to have unread PMs highlighted in some way. Make their titles bold or whatever. i don't even care about the "Mark as unread" thing - I just want to know which PMs are new.

Do that and you'll have my hat off ^^

EDIT-----------



Another thing that'd rock would be to, when you are replying to a PM, have that PM quoted by default. It was like this in DV and I really miss it.

A resounding nod of agreement to both of those. I've already missed several PMs because I can't tell which ones have not been read.

Both added to the To Do list.

How about a WYSIWYG editor for posts? I really like to see the bold etc rather than the code

I don't even care about the WYSIWYG editor - I just want the text-formatting buttons present at the quick reply :<

Yeah, where'd the formatting button on Quick Reply go, anyway? They used to be there before the skin merge. We definitely need that back, I do all of my posting from the Quick Reply box. Of course, there may be a way to do this in my User CP and I just overlooked it...

What I'd like (boy, it's sure easy for us to want, isn't it?) is for there to be an indicator of new posts in the thread pages. When I click to go to the first unread post, there's no [quick] way to tell which posts are new. Of course I could just read the date and time but, that's much more tedious and cumbersome than you'd expect.

Maybe make the little post icon turn yellow on the new posts (like DV has up next to the post date/time). We've already got the icon. It just needs a coat of paint. It really would make things easier (for me at least).

Both good ones.

I don't think that is that hard to do, considering the forum already stores info about which posts you have or not seen. But maybe some trouble with skin differences.

If you click on the little "new" icon it brings you to the first unread post.

True. But the first new post isn't always positioned at the same place when the page loads.

There are some nice customized editors out there.  We'll look into the options and see how much they complicate things.

The "unread" icon is a great idea too.

[Adam]

Also the top menu where my picture is and the link to new unread posts, I like to keep this closed, so if there was a way to access unread posts without having to open this up that would be good - but of course a low priority change

[pj]

Just want to announce that Raklet has added a feature that displays a "new" sticker on unread PMs.

That's one I really needed.  Thank you!!!!

Ok, I need you hat...


Why don't you just hit quote instead of reply then?  It is right next door to reply and there is no other way to reply except press "reply" - which happens to be right next to "quote".
