Board Announcements

I, conversely, haven't experienced the problem on any of my Apple products yet. Not to brag, I just haven't seen it yet.

 
Is it in the works to make it so we can reply to and see replies of status updates on the main page again? Annoying having to click through to different pages to interact with them.

 
Hoping that is in the works.  But it's above my pay grade.   :D

It's an add-on that has to be purchased from IP.Board.  I think when the right people (who have access to download such things) have a chance to get to it we can get it rolling.

 
It has to be more of a page-loading setting than anything. Not everyone is getting this, it's clearly tied to the things embedded into the posts (tweets, articles, photos, etc).

 
If HuskerBoard made a "wish list" of IP.Board add-ons, my guess is some of us would be willing to buy them for the board, much like a donation during the last drive.

 
Agreed w/ knapplc - I'd be one of those people willing to pitch in a little extra.

One thing of note, and it may have been mentioned here: some of the add ons require a one time purchase and then a recurring yearly fee to keep them active. We're talking a few handfuls of dollars. Nothing major. But, something to take into account.

 
I think it has to be a quirk in how the different operating systems/OSs handle things.  I don't think there's any setting for it - at least nothing that I can find.

It is much better in the new version of the board than the previous version so hopefully they can keep tweeking the software to correct it in more versions.

 
How typical that we lose functionality in the upgrade that we then have to pay extra for. Capitalist pigs!

Is there a way to get the post # in each post? I find that useful.

Agree with you here.  I found a free add-on that is supposed to do this - no idea why it isn't standard or at least an option.  I think I got it loaded but it doesn't seem to want to work.  Not sure if I'm missing a step or what.  @DaveH is going to try to look at it when he has time.

Incidentally, that's kind of why I haven't tried to load the add-on to "fix" the status updates yet.  I'd like to make sure this "smaller" one works and we know how to get it implemented before moving on to a "bigger" project.  Not sure if that's a good plan or not but that's where I'm at.

Thanks Mav and team.

 
IDK LOMS, maybe I wasn't using the old site to its full potential but it sure seems like this upgrade has introduced a lot of functionality and  more ease of use than we had. The one noticeable exception would be responding to status' on the home page.  I really like it and I'm not one to readily embrace change.

Is there a place to see a users screen name history like before?

To the right of their name in their profile, there is a counterclockwise arrow that displays the name history. 

Edit: This only shows up if the user has changed their name in the past
