Take a well deserved bow for an excellent result to a chalenging job.  Thank you for the updated version that did not lose any past discussions.   8)

Just nuts.

Looks great Ron, thanks for all your hard work!

I do have one question....is there an option to display the "Recent Posts" as "Recent Topics"? IIRC the previous forum version was like that, looked but couldn't find anything for this update. I find with "Recent Posts" the list gets too cluttered with new posts to the same topic.

I agree. Go back to the previous system if possible.

This system and format(multiple recent posts on same topic) makes me think I'm on the 428CJ forum.

Would it be possible to add a box to check next to the unread posts, and rather than "mark all posts as read", it could be "mark selected items as read", or just a picture of a toilet handle.

It seems that if a post isn't read within a certain period of time, it moves to another page and you have to read everything and then click "show all unread topics" to view them.  But if you click mark all as read, it marks the ones not shown as read too.

I know we can set a block for a selected user, but on very rare occasions there is something interesting posted.

First, I am enjoying the new Forum structure. A lot of nice features.

I have a question; when I am logged in, under my name it says "Show IP Address, and everyone else shows "Logged".  When I am logged out, it shows "Logged" under my name and everyone else.  Would you explain this, and is my IP visible to others.  This was not on the old version.

Thanks,

Greek

Only you see your current IP address when logged in, no other end users can. If you click on the line in question, a pop up will state the same.
