That's not the only time it shows up, CK.

I've seen it hide 30+ posts.

I've had trouble turning off bold and italics it the text has been copied into the post. I've had to delete what I copied and retype it. If I turn these features on when typing, I have no trouble turning them off. It's only when I copy it into the post.

I believe you can highlight the text and click the remove formatting button over on the right.

Yup that works I copied and pasted the first line, highlighted it and removed formatting/

I wish you people would quit whining about such minor things!

The admins and moderators have done a fantastic job with this software and I, for one, appreciate it. I look forward to coming here every day as it's, by far, better than any of the other forums I habituate.

I don't see it as whining. I just want to know how I can can make something work. There doesn't seem to be any documentation on the software. I agree the admins and moderators have done a good job. The software may have some bugs in it but it's better than what we had. My only problem has been figuring out the features and how to use them. I think most of the problems people have is caused by just not knowing how to use the software.

Anyway to see how many posts/person in a given thread? For instance if I posted 6-times & say.....Ibentoken posted say.....56-times?

We could do that before by clicking the sub-forum link, "Politics" for example, then clicking on the number of replies, on the right of the screen, that was a hyperlink. A seperate box would pop-up & one could see who replied to the thread and how many times each.

 

[Ernie S.]

That might be handy.

You can use the search box on the upper right and type in the user's name and check "This Thread Only"
You have 17 posts in this thread.

The fix for infinite nested quotes is welcomed. One thing though... Could it be set up to show the last posts instead of the first before you click "expand"?

I've asked that a few times in this thread, with no response.

Can it show the last post while ghosting the rest?

That pretty much sucks. If you're in a discussion with someone, your alerts will tell you they have replied, but when you go there, the reply is buried.

no

For what it's worth, I find the new quote set up much, much better.

 

[Uncensored2008]

I just left a thread with one of those. Turns out it was hiding only one post.

Makes no sense.

I ain't that hard to click to expand.

Seriously.

Block USMB scripts and this place is almost as good as the vbulletin version.

I have NoScript on all machines, so I guess I never encountered the USMB scripts in the first place.
