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

*hat off*

Haha yeah, I know. It's just something that I found strange when going back and forth DV and MM. I'll just get used to it.

How about 'show unread posts' rather than 'show unread posts since last visit'

I don't know if it is just y firewall clearing my cache/temp files, but this is always blank for me so looks like there are never any new posts. I would like it to be showing all unread posts, rather than since last visit as that just doesn't seem to work for me for some reason..

[Kromoh]

I agree with Adam, as long as they are shown in chronological order. DV had the "unread posts" button but discerned the two in their presentation. Something really useful.

I don't know if it's only me, but I've just received the lastest newsletter, and there's a bug. Well, actually two.

1) There's no "new" message thing at all. lame.
2) No matter how many times I open the message, the counter will still show 1 new message. I don't know if deleting it will solve the problem - I'm keeping the message should any testing be needed.

Thanks in advance to Raklet for solving it

I just moved a "glitch" thread into Town Hall here - if you would, please post message problems there.

Thank you!

I would like some sort of counter (say displayed next to the Dreaming... Lucid banner bit up the top) that shows how many lucid dreams total people at MM have had. I mean the whole MM community's dreams since joining MM, not an individuals amount of lucids. Yeah, more interesting than a people visited counter

But, it might be hard to regulate it so that people don't just spam it with false lucids and we get a number up in the billions etc..  .

[pj]

This group doesn't need regulating.

And it it is a great idea - one that is going to take some thought and creativity.  If you read back through this thread, you'll see this one has come up a number of times in slightly different ways.

Thank you!

Haha whoops! Great minds think alike 

[Lucidbulbs]

Ah, maybe to make that possible, the lucid dream counter, maybe you could offer some sort of option on the post that says "add to counter" or "lucid," maybe a check box or an option button in the posting area like the many we have already (insert link, insert picture, etc.)? I don't know how to link it to the counter, but I'm sure there's some way to do it. Gah, if only I didn't give up learning Javascript and such long, long ago 

[pj]

Let's just say that it is possible AND probable.

[Lucidbulbs]

Hey, no complaints here, so long as you guys don't lose a limb or two making it happen

I think we need to set up some scheduled times for folks to be in chat. Maybe have predetermined lucid dream discussions, with a particular, specific subject planned, and a topic posted somewhere on the forums to announce such. That way we might solve the current issue of not knowing who is in chat when, and getting back to the reason for having the chat in the first place.

(Oh, and I'm liking the new color on the default skin, Sara, Raklet, Adam or whoever did that. )

Seconded. A gathering of these bright minds in a medium that is more rapid would be interesting.

[pj]

That idea was my biggest motivation for the chat.  One thing I want to do and haven't even come close to accomplishing yet is arranging a round-table discussion among all our naturals here.

Everybody here has access to the News flasher.  Feel free to use it as appropriate to set things up, post events to the calendar, whatever.  The tools are here to create gatherings, conferences, etc.

I'd like a link to the main page. Maybe make the forum name at the top of the forum pages a link. Every time I want to check the main page out I have to dig around to find the topic about the logo.

Uncannily I had the exact same idea. Although I think a big button in the shape of the Rainbow tree that returns you to the index would be better. (Although saying that I think a button which also returns you to the homepage wouldn't go amiss)

I made a (very basic) mock-up of what it could look like:



We need the MM logo around more often. The only chance I get to see it is on the homepage.

[EDIT] Oh! Also, I think that we need a "Show Unread Posts" that doesn't include any journals. But that could just be me missing the entire point of the forum.
