    Thread display...

    The new thread display (with the inline preview of the OP) is bloody awful and makes browsing through the forums extremely tiresome. Please change it back to how it was before.

    caravel, can you post the steps to reach an example of what you are referring to, or post a link that would give an example? Is what you are referring to supposed to be a feature, or is it something that's just not working correctly?

    The forum software was upgraded to the newest release a couple of days ago, and I've noticed some odd looking pages showing up now and then ever since, but I'm not sure that it is the same thing that you are seeing. I've also noticed that we currently have 13 templates needing merging or updating, so that might be what is causing the issue.

    Thanks for the feedback.

    Never mind, I just noticed an example of what you are referring to and it was indeed what I was seeing earlier, too. Let me see if I can figure out what's going on with it.

    Okay, think it's fixed now... please check it from your end and post back.

    Thanks.


    Edit: okay, changed it back because the fix corrected the reported issue, but it also caused a different undesired effect. I'm thinking the templates needing to be merged/corrected will fix this once they have been handled, but I'll need to look into this matter a little more.

    Hey, oz.

    I noticed the same thing here. Pretty sure this is what caravel was talking about.

    Apologies for the late reply.

    The example in jayd512's screenshot is indeed what I'm referring to. Thanks.

    This issue has been added to the current bugs listing in the admin forum and is under discussion, so hopefully it will be resolved soon.

    Thanks for the feedback, guys.


    Edit (11-24-11): just a quick update here to let you guys all know that I've not heard back on this matter as of yet, but will post again should any news come my way. Thank you all for your patience.
