My previous and next links to move between threads have disappeared - what have I done wrong?
Back
Thanks!   Good to know it wasn't down to my ineptitude with computers.

Can we have an easier way of navigating to the next/previous page in a thread rather than having to click on the page number? At the mo, the "previous, next" links as for the threads themselves, not pages within the same thread. Just a little thing, but quite annoying! Otherwise, top marks for the new look!
There are no settings within the software for 'next page', as clicking [new] at the end of tread title takes you to either a)the start of the thread or b)to the last page you looked at in the thread, in most cases you would then only need to go on a couple of pages by using the numbers.

I really like the new site and well done on the migration. However, a question if I may:

Any chance of having threads with new posts in them being bold type face again? The yellow NEW icons, because they're not aligned centrally in a column and are at the end of varying length thread names becomes difficult for the eye to track where I should click to read unread messages.

Does my babble make sense?

Is this possible?

Just a note of appreciation on a smooth transition, and a bright new site. the ultimate test of an avalanche of fans on the day when MON quit was handled with ease. Well done to all concerned.

Another little thing that's just I guess habit when you make a post can it go back to be on that thread no the area in which you made said post?

The best l can do is probably change the colour of the [new] tab at the end of the thread title.

Not sure l follow what you are saying?

If you mean return to thread rather than topics, there is a setting in > Profile > Layout > Return to topic after posting (or soemthing similar).

Its a small thing, but I miss the box that used to be at the bottom, telling you who was on line and the record number of visitors and such like.

Made it easier to avoid people ;-)

A minor quibble... when listing members can you have a ranking number next to the Username? I want to know where I am in the 'league' of total posts without having to count them.

I'm 53rd, by the way... which makes me Milton Keynes Dons. ** Shudders **.

I'm Blackpool depending on how Man United and Newcastle do tonight.

Why are some posters listed as 'Golden Muppet' but many others who are also GMs like myself aren't?

I have to re-enter all the GM's one at a time, you'll get it soon.

Hi Martin

Thanks again for all your ongoing hard work. Just noticed that I can't view other users' profiles and just get the following message:

An Error Has Occurred!
You are not allowed to access this section

Can someone (anyone) else see if they can view others' profiles so that martin has an idea as to whether it's just my settings or a general thing?

Thanks  :)

GM's should be able to see other users profiles, l'll have to check permission settings.
