Something that bugs me is that I can actually reply to a "reply", and it is NOT removed from my list of notifications. The notifications are just WEA...
Yeah, I think this one just may be shorter and leaner on the user garnish to the left of the replies.
Dang - I just hit "reply" to this, and realized how worthless "reply" actually is. Not sure I can remove vanilla reply, but will keep this tactic in...
Yes! Unapprove hides the comment, but does not delete it. It basically goes into moderation, where I can either kill it, edit it, put it back, etc. ...
Just to let people know, I found out how to increase the page length of ALL of these to go up to 50 "replies" (top level comments) each. At least, th...
Yeah, I can control how many topics and how many replies to each (default is like infinite topics and 4 or 5 posts each) for this extended style. Tha...
@linda - you know what - I think maybe you're thinking of the Q&A format, maybe, because one CANNOT like the "comments" on the answers there AT AL...
OK, I just had a bout of "troubles" with the Q&A format, and authored an IT SUCKS thread over there. But I just wanted to DOUBLE DOWN here. Thre...
Yes, this QA format is confusing. Maybe why I never turned into a redditor.
@steveinco - Yeah, I can't find anything to get rid of likes. Errrrr - actually, I can get rid of likes, but I can't get rid of them from notificatio...
@bflyjesusgrl Nice idea to make this stuff stick around in an easy-to-find area with some organization and searchability.
@steveinco - yeah, I don't know if the add-ons for this software offer nicer notifications or not. I need to dig into that stuff soon. How do you f...
@soleroroberts8 - when you open up a reply, the toolbar is ABOVE the text entry area - the emojis are on the RIGHT END of that toolbar. I can actual...
@soleroroberts8 - OK - you're out now!!! 😀
AHM IN LUUUUUUUV
@wheatietoo LOL!!!
@wheatietoo - Yeah - the "P" is something that I may be able to get rid of - not sure - it may be listed somewhere and I can get rid of it - but if no...
@valeriecurren - I wish, but no - they have to use whatever the forum uses.
@valeriecurren - actually, I just took away this ability, since mods can simply "unapprove" a reply or topic instead of editing or deleting!
@bflyjesusgrl - I had to let you out of moderation again - not sure what's up with that, but if you get locked out, we'll just have to keep beating on...
@valeriecurren - lots of possibilities there. We'll add the bells and whistles soon. First thing is selecting a forum style. I think Elize likes th...
@bflyjesusgrl - You're in - WITH ENOUGH TO SHARE. I'll handle the RUNNING WITH SCISSORS. 😉
Thanks! That would be the THREADED layout! By the way, I have found that moderators can "unapprove" replies and content without the need to edit or...
@valeriecurren - SEE? This forum style is already running into problems!
@valeriecurren - yes - editing other people's posts is pretty much a last resort, and I personally expect to be notified if it EVER happens. I prefer...
@slowcreekno - nice to see you got in!
@valeriecurren - yeah, I'll have to look into that. The problem is that mods generally can edit mods. That is pretty much a forum normality.
@elize - they're already exceeding my rate of response! 😉
@linda - you will be happy to know that I am one of the least offended admins EVER when it comes to "necroposting", replying to spam, talking back to ...
Sadly, layouts are pretty much FORUM-WIDE. That is why I have FOUR TEST FORUMS. Now, we could keep multiple forums, but there are downsides to that...
@elize - Amen! ❤️
@elize - this is going to be a long job. But I think the sooner we decide on a layout, the sooner I'll get a basic framework up and start creating su...
@valeriecurren - no - can't find any way to move it. I can delete it, but can't find a way to cut and paste it.
@evereleutheros - good to see you!
@elize - Yeah, not so sure about sleep, but I should! 😉
@valeriecurren - shouldn't be a problem, but keep an eye on things. If you find stuff happening as if done by your account that you don't remember do...
@elize - OK - well - then I'm going to give you some possible bad news. That nastiness is likely China and/or our shitty evil Demmunist government wo...
@valeriecurren - there is a different notification system for the forum. Up at the top of the FORUM there is its own orange bell. Similar thing to t...
@elize - yes - the "online stuff" is a nice feature, and it's out-of-the-box with the free forum plugin.
@aubergine - yes - there is an "inner forum bell" at the top. It's a bit different from the JetPack blogsite notifications bell.
@elize - I kinda like this format, "threaded", too. And yes - likes work!!!
@yucki - I have no intention of getting rid of the open thread / blog part - ALTHOUGH the forum plugin offers that option - to turn the entire site in...
@scott467 - yes - looks like to embed video, we will need the add-ons for here, too.
@scott467 - let me go look. I believe that we would have to buy more add-ons for the forum, but that is within budget, IMO.
Gotcha! Let me take a look at the main page. You may be right!!!
Yup. I'm just starting to get the hang of these formats - and I'm very used to forums. I will agree - forums are confusing at first, and you're bein...
Actually, I was replying to the original question's explanation. The ANSWERS are the ones below, and each of THOSE can have direct replies, too.
OK - I think this is reddit style. Let me upvote your answer and see if it goes higher.
OK, looks like I just made your answer go to the top by upvoting it!
