Subject: Two (and a Bit) Requests


FranOnTheEdge ( ) posted Tue, 11 April 2006 at 4:27 AM · edited Thu, 13 February 2025 at 3:22 AM

I have two requests. Request 1: I'm finding that the lack of message numbering is making it very difficult to direct people to the exact message I mean, which is necessary in my two main forums, Wings and Bryce - especially when people are trying to help others with problems. So request number 1 is: can messages be numbered again? Request number 2 is: I'm having to perform complex & fiddly actions every time I wish to look at a message in ANY of the forums, In my hotmail I open the ebot, and then I have to right click on the "Here" for that message, then I left click "properties" from the drop down list, then I have to enlarge the tiny box so that I can see the address line, then I have to copy the number at the end of the address line, then (on first accessing the forums) I have to open a new tab - because I use FireFox and absolutely ADORE its tabbed browsing - then I must enter a forum (any forum, it doesn't matter) then I must enter a thread - again any thread will do.... then I can finally paste the new message's number (from the ebot - remember the ebot?) into the address line in the new tab's address bar....... phew! Now all this fiddling could be avoided if ONLY we could have back the address line being visible in the ebot in the first place, like it used to be, and like other forums have it, Daz for one. So request number 2 is: please can we have the address line visible in the ebot again? Fran (cos visiting the forums just takes so LONG now, it's driving me crackers!) P.S. there is a kind of correlative to request number 2, and that's to have the addresss link in the ebots capable of being opened in a new tab so I guess it's 3 requests really, but numbers 1 and 2 are the most vital.

It's odd that you have to do all that. When I get an ebot, I simply click the "Here" word and it goes directly to that thread. I don't have to do all your are doing to get there. What I wish it would do would be go to the message the ebot was referring to instead of the beginning message in the thread. I believe numbering messages as you suggested would solve that problem.

I have a reques too. Please fix it so that every time I link to the forum from an email message, I don't have to freaking log in.

cherokee69, Well the messages USED to be numbered in the old Rosity, made it possible to refer to an image or to specific instructions that were posted in a previous message... but going to a particular message in a thread would be nice too. P.S. bonestructure, yes that would be nice too. I sure hope some admin type is listening...

Oh the box is clicked, and it remembers my usename and password. It just makes me log in every time I reply to an email alert
