A couple of features I miss

Site Feedback
1

On the topic list pages, I liked being able to see who started a topic and when it was started. I’m not seeing that here.

When I mouseovered a topic name, I got a popup preview of the OP.

Those two features saved me plenty of clicks.

I’m also not crazy about the lack of pagination, but I can deal with it.

But I will add my voice to those praising everyone involved in the move. Thanks!

I miss seeing people’s location, post count, etc. thing.

3

You can see who started the thread just to the right of the title. But I do miss the mouse-over preview.

4

That’s what I came here to complain about.

5

I most of all miss not having to scroll all the way to the top to leave the thread/select a forum to be redirected to…

6

???

I just click on the “go back a page” arrow…

Just click on the three lines between your avatar and the magnifying glass.

8

Or click on a forum at the bottom of the page. Or click the logo.

That is dependent on the Theme you’re using. The “Sam’s Simple Theme” shows:

  • the name of the OP
  • the date (or relative time, if it’s thread from ‘today’) that the thread was started
  • the number of replies
  • the last poster int he thread
  • the date (or again, relative time) of the last post.

Thank you. That helps.

11

Yes, thank you @Suburban_Plankton that really helps

“Vincent” shows:

  • Up to five icons. The first is the OP, the last is the most recent poster. Hover on any icon to see who it is.
  • The number of replies
  • The number of views
  • The time since the last post (eg, “5m”, “4h”). Hover on this to see the date and time of the first and most recent posts.

If I clicked a link in a vBulletin post, the linked page opened in a new tab (this is using Firefox). Now it opens in the same tab as Discourse. Which wouldn’t be a problem if I weren’t in the habit of closing the tab when I’m done with it. A relatively minor annoyance, and one that I can avoid if I right-click the link and tell FF to open it in a new tab; still, it may be something that can be altered.

You can change this in your Preferences.

ETA: Oops, maybe not…

15

Yes, you can. It’s under Interface along with the Themes.

16

As long as it’s a link to an external page.

17

Ignorance fought conquered (and yes, I was mostly concerned with external pages). Thank you.

I came here to say this as well.
