Post Separator “Divider 2 (line)” the line should be more prominent (stronger stroke and/or across the entire post).

The day before yesterday at 6.50pm

Pet peeve of mine for the whole damn web. Could we have the date appear instead? Or at the very least, “two days ago”?

Also, I don’t see a “quote” feature, and the italics I did use do not look italicized at all, at least in the original posting box.

Also, I don’t see a “quote”

You have set the Mid Century Modern style, which uses Univers for body text, and that has horrific italics, so I changed it to a colour for emphasis. All the other ones have italics.

The quote feature is the button on the editor with a pair of inverted commas to the top left of a bunch of text, i.e. to the right of numbered list.

Maybe I’m just not seeing it but how do you get back to the list of threads underneath a board after clicking into a thread? I can see how to get back to Site New Answers and the home page, but what if I’m looking at a thread on ILE and I want to go back to the list of threads tagged to that board? Is that direct navigation path no longer there or am I blind?

Or is it just the back button on the browser?

Well that or the board link, Dan.

i.e. Keith’s Board on this one.

Thought it worth noting: email for log in is case sensitive. Most keyboards autocapatilise the first word in a box. Took me a while to figure out why I couldn’t log in

Ah right, thank you. I had not noticed. I will sort.

Well that or the board link, Dan.

Huh, I tried to click that and it didn’t seem to do anything. I’ll chalk that up to user error.

Someone else got to the case-sensitive email, which is a pain when you’re on a device that wants to capitalize everything

Are the board shortcuts in the settings working for other people? They don’t seem to work for me.

Got to say, despite being a change-hater my feelings are generally positive about most of the features over here—will have more considered feedback when I’ve got used to it, for now I’m just poking at things.

I guess the board shortcut thing is sort of similar to DJP’s issue? I thought I would solve it with the settings but it doesn’t seem to work.

I’m going back and forth between the browser and Zing and it seems like embedded threads take you out of Zing and into a browser window. I’ll do a little more fiddling to confirm.

Yeah. Only seeing this from a phone browser and have some real worries re: reactions and text size. But otherwise, cosign e.mily overall positive impression

Also missing who updated a thread in the landing page. More important than who posted imo, but please find a way to keep both!

I haven’t done much on phone browser stuff, because of Zing, so I would expect it will be a bit ropey at that size at the moment anyway.

Thanks, Emily... I can see a board shortcut in the menu okay. Happy to fix, but not sure what the issue is.

Actually let me be clearer about what I’m talking about; I don’t see a link back to the board when reading a thread on the browser. I see the icons across the top that can navigate me back to the board list or recent activity but I don’t see a direct link from here to Keith’s Board. If I click Bugs, Comments etc link, it reloads this thread.

Yes, it’s not in the menu, I mean above the thread title, e.g. “Bugs, Comments Etc.” in this case. What Emily’s talking about is that you can go in settings and pick boards you do want in the actual menu, and they’ll show left of Recent Activity.

(In Zing, the app’s back button is context sensitive, so it will go back to either Recent Activity or the thread’s parent board based on where I opened the thread from)

Oh do you mean in Zing?

Also, if you’re in a wide enough browser, there’s a breadcrumb trail on the left, but it does get removed if there’s not enough room on the screen.

That is what’s happening. On my iPhone, the board name is being removed from the display if the phone is in portrait orientation. In landscape orientation, I can see the board name.

So when I go into settings and click a board to add as a shortcut, it just zooms me up to the top of the page, then when I scroll down the box remains unticked and no shortcut added. Could be my old set-up again, but wanted to know if it was doing it to anyone else!

I am seeing ‘Keith’s Board’ etc at the top of threads (and am also on a laptop not phone), so not the same issue as DJP in fact.
