You either have to scroll back up or all the way to the bottom. I think DrMario is after a freeze pane/cell type thing that you'd use in spreadsheets so that those links are always in view. I've added a pseudo breadcrumb to the mobile nav bar. This should do what you're asking for. The breadcrumb will take you to the parent/page category for whatever you're viewing. Hopefully this works for you! DoctaMario, beesuit and Shakunetsu 3 Quote Link to comment

Hecatom Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 Something i noticed when browsing via phone with chrome is that you cant really delete quotes. You have to refresh the page and use the clear textbox prompt that appears when trying to do the reply again. Also, maybe i am missing something, but is there a way to make multiple quotes?

Multi-quote is the little plus sign next to the normal quote button. Yes, removing quotes is difficult on mobile -- I will try to find a fix but that's mostly just how the forum is coded.

YourFavGrandpa Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 I have a suggestion as well, if it hasn't been implemented already by the existing quote system. Could bbCode be enabled somewhere down the line; whether it be a full implementation or a limited one (quoting posts from elsewhere as a example)? Quote Link to comment

I won't be turning on BBCode because it's super old and will soon be patched out of future versions of the forum software. I don't think there are any BBCode features that can't be done with the current text editor anyway. If you want to quote posts from other threads, you can already do that: 1. Click the '+' icon next to the quote button. This is the multi-quote button. 2. A quote will be added to your quote list. You'll see a notification/button in the lower right showing how many quotes you have in your list. Your quote list follows you throughout the entire site. When you're ready to use the quotes you've stored you can go to any thread and hit the button. Your quotes will appear in the text editor for that page. I hope this helps! beesuit and Shakunetsu 1 1 Quote Link to comment

Discourse/reddit style replying is not supported. Whenever you quote someone you will see this arrow in the upper right corner of the quote box: Clicking this arrow will take you to the original comment you are quoting from, just like Discourse does.

M A R T I A N Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Yo @misterBee. One of the more convinient aspects of navigating the site is being able to scroll up and click the big ass logo to go straight back to the home page, where the 5 most recent threads will pop up. Have you considered letting users click a button to extend the list another 5 threads? And then another 5 with another click, so on and so forth? It'd be a fantastic way to easily keep up with a handful of recent topics. Just a thought I had Quote Link to comment

Thanks for listening. 👍 I have another suggestion: When the actual notification message appears at the bottom of the screen and you click it, it doesn't clear that notification from your unread list so it leaves the little green icon there even though you already viewed what it was. So you gotta scroll up, click it and click the notification again to get rid of it. It's a small annoyance but, is there anything you can do there?

Dayaan Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 @misterBeeHey, I know you addressed this much earlier in the thread, but I was wondering if you made any progress on the white flashing base theme when the site loads. I have a habit of deleting my internet history and caches, but have totally stopped that since joining this website since selective deletion is too time consuming but I also value this site more than my old habits. I guess my questions is if you've made any progress on mitigating that white flash? I just got a whipping for flashing God's presence all over the bedroom in this late hour. Think of the children!

I'll see if there is something I can do to tweak the behavior a little. Unfortunately the problem will not completely go away unless I change how themes work, and that will probably not happen in the near future. Is there a reason you are clearing cookies/cache so often?

Thanks for letting me know. The reason I asked is because the issue is really about cache more than it is about cookies. You can clear cookies but if you leave cache alone it will help mitigate the problem a lot. I've tweaked things a bit so at least the background will be dark during that short pre-load period. I'll tweak things a bit more over time. Let me know if it helped at all! Quote Link to comment

Same result as far as the light body in the middle (keeping cookies, history and caches didn't change that result, as you designed), but the black background helps a lot. Obviously you know I read what you said on Discord, so I understand what the other solution is and how time consuming it can be. I can attach an image of the changed UI on the load, but since it's hard on the forum, I'll tweet it and link it here as well as post the image on Discord if you want to see what you already know for posterity.
