Hi Luke,
I thought I would check to see if the forum niggles that we discussed in this thread back in April are sorted. You mentioned they were 'simples' but I caught you just as you were leaving for your hols!

It's easy to lose this things as time goes on when they are buried in different topics, hence this post :¬)


>>Back Slashes
The forum removes backslashes like this: >> << when the post is submitted.


>>User Profile Links
It would be nice if external links to customers websites opened in a 'new window/tab' so that you aren't taken away from the Freeola website.


>>Post Time Stamps
It would make sense if the posted and edited time stamps were in the same format.

i.e. 'Edited' time stamp is in 24 hour format , the 'posted' time isn't.


---------------- ---------------- ---------------- ---------------- ----------------

Quoted Links [resolved]
When users quote a previous post that contains links they are split over two lines.
Here's a test: freeola broadband speeds
EDIT: It looks like this issue has been resolved!
...along with Warhunt's suggestion of putting the OP username in bold etc.

New forum niggle ;¬)

It would make sense if the posted and edited time stamps were in the same format.

See LukeM's last post for an example:

I'm looking into now for you Hmmm :P (The first two issues at least)

... I am an oxymoron.

That's bordering on oxymoron(ish) I do believe!


I did mention that this didn't have to be for you.
I've changed the subject removing your username...


I hope Freeola find the feedback useful - sorry to be a pain.

Sorry for the late attention Hmmm, although I'd rather you didn't call out my name. This was put on the back burner due to large projects as McLong mentioned.

I can't make any promises for these fixes since they aren't affecting the general use of the forum, but I will see what I can do when I have some spare time.

Thanks for that.
Obviously this doesn't have to be for LukeM!

It ended up FAO... as initially he said they were simple bits to implement and should be done later in the day, that turned into tomorrow, and then he went on his hols!

That's when I raised this separate thread as I could see things easily getting lost.

He hasn't left, he's just been working on a couple of large projects in his basement.

He should make an appearance on here soon... hopefully.

Hi Freeola - I'm wondering if LukeM has perhaps left?


I was just following some website links in someone's user profile and found I had lost Freeola's site.

This reminded me of this 'niggles' post!

Just thought I would *bounce* it to see if LukeM's around or in case someone has 5 minutes to make some small changes :¬)
