When you're viewing a thread, at the top of the page there's a link to jump back to the forum, but it's not at the bottom of the page. That would be a nice thing to have at the bottom as well.

Someone may have already mentioned it, but just incase I'll add mention this anyway.
It seems that the password entry dailog box isn't allow for as many characters as the phpbb one did. I was unable to enter my password correctly because i couldn't enter all the necessary characters (it stores a pass of a larger lenght, but won't let you enter one). I was forced to reset my password, by clicking on the "Forgot You Password" link and following the steps I was given to reset.
If anyone else has a problem logging in you may want to give that a try.

I don't think I saw this in a question yet.

Is there a way to get more than 25 threads per page? I have set my preferences to 50 posts per page when I view a thread but it used to let you see 50 threads per page. Can that be done? I haven't found that yet.

ok. This has been brought up before. And in the setting for vB the number of threads shown per each forum is set to 40 before the page split.

Now are you talking about when you are looking at an individual thread? For example this 'Post Your Questions Thread' or a whole forum like 'General & Offtopic Section'

There's a thread about that in the feedback section, I think they've set it to 40, but it's not working? Or something? I don't remember now...

oriecat · Jan 18, 2005

Or see what Zach said

A question - I've noticed, looking at old threads, a lot of pics missing, and I think it's just broken links, but it seems weird that it doesn't show the red X box or something, instead of just a blank message...

manda · Jan 19, 2005

maybe they were pics uploaded into the gallery?

oriecat · Jan 19, 2005

No, I looked at several of them (by clicking to quote the post, you get the whole code) and the img tags are still there, with url to offsite pics. So it's just broken links. I tested one, to make sure it was broken.

The whole forum. When I log in I go to "New Posts" to see what has been put up since my last visit. I get 25 per page in that view. It used to show 50 per page.

When I view a thread I get 50 individual posts/responses per page before the break. That is the way I set it up in the "Edit Options" section and it works fine.

Does that make sense? Did I say it correctly?

aggiezach · Jan 19, 2005

Ok thats a different setting. I'll check it out when I get some time one of these days. Or one of the other Admins or mods can as well. We'll see who is actually looking at this thread

You should be all set, it's a searching option and has been update to 40 so it displays like the rest of the forum. Give it a try and see if that is what you were looking for. If not, let me know
