I mistakenly double posted today. I dont see the "delete this post" button anymore. Maybe I am just missing it?

[Skuzzy]

You are not missing anything.  If you double post, just edit the post and say so.

I don't either,


That is going to get REAL interesting.

No option to delete your own post, 5 minutes later, when you decide you should not have said that........  


Not that I have ever been guilty.

Oh, ok, I guess that would work.

Skuzzy, a small suggestion, at home here i have a lame old 17" CRT...

anyway in the forum view the "Topic" frame in the grid is almost as small as the last reply... do we really need to see the full date and time of the reply? if that field could be shrunk the title of the topic would span further correct?

I don't know if it is doable, or needed, I just think the old way was a cleaner look.

thanks!

We evaluated many options for a bulletin board and this one came the closet to meeting all the requirements we had. 

Next to the date in the header is an ICON for reducing the size.  You can do this to categories in the forum listing as well.  The board will remember those settings.

Straffo, try clocking on the "Show most recent posts" in the header of the board.  I think it is what you are looking for.

Yes it work but it show all the post made between 2 session , I just tested it it gave me 10 pages to browse/
The old BBS was showing the threads not the posts, it was easier for me to see what to read/where to contribute than browsing 10 pages

[Skuzzy]

I see what you are saying straffo.  Not sure I can change that one.

How many Private Messages can our PM boxes hold?

Will the ability to sticky a post be allowed for people listed as basic moderators?

[Skuzzy]

Basic mderators should be able to do everything a moderator can, except add/remove moderators.  That shold be working now.

EDIT:  I just checked iwth my test account and basic mods do have the ability to stick/unstick topics and a couple of other goodies.

[soda72]

strange...

I can do it in the ava staff forum.. but the options do not appear in the private allied or private axis forums for me...

[Skuzzy]

Try it now.  It was due to the bug before that prevented basic mods from working.  They all have to be removed and added back in in order for them to work again.

The "HOME" button takes you back to the HTC home page.

The "home" button takes me back to the Forums home page. Is there a refresh or something I need to do? Also, Where can I find my sent Private Messages? I see a outbox and inbox only.
