Are There Any Features That You Want?

[david63]

Now that I have got the forum up and running I was wondering if there are any features that you would like adding to the forum.

I am not guaranteeing that any will be added and some will probably not be possible.

Before anyone asks having groups with wall/forums as on the P&O Community is not a possibility.

is it possible to add photos from our comps via the browse button?

[Meg 50]

how's about numbered posts - it's easier to give a link and say, "post 936" than say, "9.45 on Feb 30th"

Could we make P&O Secrets and Bargain Deals as stickies? The latter could be pruned from time to time as deals become obsolete.

I expect Ken will want to include anything Kylie as his request

[Quizzical Bob]

Multi-quotes?

Within the posting itself I would tend to agree but the time is better, imo, with a Topic Listing Display.

Also ...
Could we have displayed at the top of the page(s)

It is currently 02 Feb 2013 13:13 + and there are ' nn ' Members Online.

Yes ... but size restrictions do apply ...

Cog / Gallery / Manage Personal Albums / Upload Image

You will need to build an Album and then upload images into it / them.

[Manoverboard]

Could you add a ' Title ' sub-button to the ' URL ' Tab for an either / or option.

ps ... I am aware of Ken's Link post but the method above is easier for all Members.

QB, you can already do multi--quotes but it requires a bit of copying and pasting. If you are using the full editor and scroll down you will find the last few posts which you can copy and paste into the input box. You then just need to highlight the text and click on the 'Quote' button in the toolbar .. you could also type the 'quote' tags in manually as below

Code: Select all

[quote]your text goes here[/quote]
or 
[quote="who said it"]your text goes here[/quote]

Note the use of quotation marks around the persons name in the second example.

Multi-quotes?

Even easier than that Ken

Just scroll down the list of posts below the posting box and click on "Quote"

i.e.

Could you add a ' Title ' sub-button to the ' URL ' Tab for an either / or option.

Nice one david, hadn't noticed that little facility .... I have been that used to the copy/paste trick for so long that I missed out on that feature.

Done

Thanks, I'll try that next time I need it. I normally use Tapatalk and on another forum it has a separate button for multi-quotes (I think).

found that bit, but I meant to by pass the add to album stage

It is possible now, apart from the fact that this feature is currently disabled.

The problem with uploading anything from your own computer and including it in a post is that there are security issues with it.

I need time to consider the implications.

security?

What, like introducing viruses?

If it's gonna cause probs that 's fair enough, we can manage without

David, Is it possible to give a clearer indicator of threads you are subscribed to? The current little circle on the larger circle does not stand out like the bold tick on Cruise Critic.

Not without redesigning the template images - which I will not be doing

[Kendhni]

Towny, the only other thing is to play around with the different templates and see if one of the others makes it clearer ... I know in prosilver you get a little asterisk.
It takes a little while to get used to new templates though.

Is there any chance of having one or two extra Folders for filing PMs please ?

[david63]

You can already have four - is that not enough?

There seems to be space on the Bar and one more would be most welcome
