ELynah Forum Update

Ah, ok. That poll was a temporary solution anyway. Thanks for the detective work. I'll get on it. =]

If you mouseover a thread (or reply in threaded view) subject, you'll get a popup with a preview of the message contents. In addition, you can control-rightclick to mark the message read or shift-control-rightclick to mark the thread read. There's a tooltip, so you don't actually have to remember that.

Mousing over the "Previous Message" or "Next message" link also gives you the popup, which I find somewhat more annoying than the merely slightly annoying popup when mousing over the subject line.

Is there a way to let us toggle the popup option individually?

Now there is. If you go to Control Center > Forum Settings there's an option to disable them.

I also found this annoying as, if you click towards the right side of the "next message" link, the pop up blocks your clicking.  I did like it for subject/post links though.  I'll turn it off for now though I can see how it would be nice if not for link-blocking implications.  Thanks!

In replying here I don't have the ability to guess where this post will be as far as the thread is concerned.  That's not a really big deal,  but the fact that I have no way to see when prior posts in the thread were made is a problem.

Am I missing a setting?

This is pretty minor thing.

With the old software the "compose" section at the bottom was restricted to a certain width. Now it expands to the width of the forum.

This may be intentional, but it is sort of weird when you have the window maximized on a large wide screen monitor.

I suppose I'll get used to it.

Firefox/Vista (soon to be 7)

The "search" feature doesn't seem to work as I might expect.

I was trying to find the thread about CU games on TV and searched for "TV", "television" and got 0 results found. I also got 0 results found for the word "the". Other words like "Cornell" and "search" do give a lot of results.

[CowbellGuy]

I suspect "TV" is too short a search term, so it's not working. The word "television" doesn't appear in either of the TV threads, but "televised" does, and that term returns results. Can't search for what isn't there.

I had a couple people comment that sometimes the whole page doesn't load in IE. Is anyone still seeing this behavior? If so, when it happens can you view source (right-click on page, select View Source) and tell me what's on the very last line?

Here is a screen shot of what I told you about on saturday.
I also attached the source info.

[CowbellGuy]

Thanks. All the data is being sent. It's a display issue with IE. What version is that? Looks like 6 maybe? *cough*

[Doug Dickerson]

Yes, it is 6.  I am at work right now and that is what they have on our computers.
But I had the same problem at home using either Firefox or IE and they are up to date.
