If You Could Change / Want One Thing On The Forum?

'dismiss notification', rather than just using the 'x' to close it.

Now if only someone reminded me to wear my glasses. Thanks and sorry for being blind.:laugh:

I find that if you press Dismiss whilst on a thread you end up back on the Home page... is that just me?

Notifications can be dismissed as stated above, never to be seen again.

PTSD Forum supports IE9+, FF, Safari, Chrome and Opera browsers. If you use an earlier web browser, then issues are at your peril and you should change browsers to a web standards one or update IE if using that.

There will be an expansion in forum categories in the future

Can I ask, would you consider a 'resources' category in this expansion, to organise all the 'educational type resources' in one place? Just want to throw that into the bucket. It would make life so much easier!

The problem though is to define what is educational to one, is not to another, thus what goes into it, what doesn't! The simple solution was what has been installed and available to members already, bookmarking content and wiki pages containing broader subjective material on prime topics, most of which intertwines directly with other important data attempted to be categorised via topic in the forums history, which didn't work as well as you might think it would.

I'm not sure what the right name for this is, but I really like when a website has a "scroll to top" button. When you're viewing a page and start to scroll down, a little button will show up at the bottom of the page and if you click on it, it will automatically take you back to the top of the page rather than having to scroll back up.

Does that make sense? Do you know what I'm talking about? And, yes, I realize how this just speaks to my level of laziness but it is a feature that I enjoy on a website and have often wished we had here on the forum.

Already has one at the bottom of the page... bottom right side "Top".

 

[catjudo]

Guess I never noticed that because you have to scroll ALL the way to the bottom to see it. The button I was describing shows up as soon as you've scrolled down from the top but is there at the bottom of your screen even if you're only part way down a page. So it is always visible and just a click away to the top without any additional scrolling.

Yep, I told you this spoke to my level of laziness. LOL

 

[anthony]

I know what you're talking about, being you see them on blogs more often... though they also interfere with text as well when floating like that. They can also interfere on mobile platforms.

There is a type of scroll bar that two buttons at the top and at the bottom, for go to bottom and go to top.

I just noticed a second thing I'd want... I'd like to be able to enter which page number in a thread I would like to go to. So, take the real long threads that have 150 pages... If you want to get to those roughly between page 15 and 140, you need to do it two at a time because it will only show "page 15, 16, 17" that you can click on. So, for example in one of the "Brighten Your Day With PTSD Giggles" (or so) thread I have viewed the first ten pages and the last ten, but going somewhere in between is tiresome. Is adding this possible? Or maybe I'm just doing something wrong?

I hope I have made clear enough what I mean?! :confused:

Just to help some, P-No. If you click on the arrow, then you get to go 5 at a time. And you can click on the arrow 10 (N) times real quick and move forward 50...
