Can Polls be given a top-level space on menu?
I just found one by cruising the threads...

Can Shout-box be extended wider/deeper?
The last post is always clipped in my view...

Can we have an option to view latest post first?
Always get the first post to view then need to trundle down to the last/latest posting...
regards
ian

Hi Ian,

Polls: When you start a new thread the "Poll Manager" is just under the main frame.

Shoutbox: Unfortunately with this breed of forum the display options are limited. I've already requested that one.

Post order: I thought that was under your preferences in the "My Stuff" area but I can't seem to find it. Danny will shed some light on that.

Hi Wheelz, have enjoyed your posts thanks.

re Polls; I meant access to all Polls currently on the website.
Via a menu listing under forums or the drop-down under "Hop-to" for instance.

As it is you'd never know they exist (I've found one so far) untill you trip over them in a thread...

When a Admin, Mod or Global Mod makes the post with a poll in it they have an option to make it a sticky this means it will be at the top until they edit the topic options.

After sometime you have to many messages at the top and you need to scroll to much so we don't do it unless it is a real goody!

As you are new and there are many messages to catchup on I would reccomend you read this topic Setting up your Watched List after you have done that click on Mark all read this way you will not miss any NEW messages.

We have been ask for that in the past and it is not and option the people who make this software (UBB.threads™) are building a new Version called Version 8 this may be a option then.

I would prefer people to post new topics so others can read and learn from the post the shout box messages drop of after about 20 messages and you can miss the topic sometimes.

I think you can edit this setting and other under My Stuff >> Edit Preferences have a play and let us know how you get on.

Did you use something other than "Search" on the top menu bar?
Cos if you use that type "poll" it only finds posts with the word poll in it.

Well I tried changing something in my setup but no-go.
Still list posts with oldest on top.
grrr.

I did a search for "polls" in ~search~ (go figure) and got posts with polls in them.
Ok.

But my feeling is to have (everything!) I mean, a menu item to go to all polls.
Otherwise you'll never know if a poll exists till you think of one ("no, we did that already"), or trip over it in a post.

Ok.


I made the mistake of performing an "Advanced" search. Should have just typed poll into the first search box. All cool on that front now.

Ok, think I found the answer.
After setting up watch-lists and adding forums of interest to a watch-list, those listings can then be filtered for time, poster, etc.

Then using a "threaded" view one can see and choose more freely through the list.

In a "flat" view of a thread or topic then it is displayed oldest post first and newest at the bottom of the page(s).

Guess I'll try my "watched-list" list for a while...

Nope, still wierd.

went back to my new watch-list and it still listed my post from yesterday as being the most recent.
That was the post just before Danny's at 2017.

Hit the refresh button x times and still no change.
Go to "active posts" and latest is shown.

Must be my super critical Opera browser. If only the world would adhere to the standards it sets and not accept variable coding...

Bloody newbies ;-)

Ok you must have clicked on the word "Posted" at the top of the messages in one or all forums this will sort them from top to bottom with one click of your mouse.

To fix it click on this LINK I think this will only do the club room.

So you will need to visit each one and click on "Posted" this switch them to the top!

I hope this is what you were meaning took me sometime to work it out!! ;-)

Oh!
I see what you mean.

sri.
Nope.

I'm talking about in the thread itself.
I think my only option is to use 'threaded' mode and even then it still puts the latest at the bottom of the page.

No probs.
Enough time spent on this distraction i think??

And thanks for your time.
Go concentrate on those dotz........
