RichM Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 A suggestion which I thought some may appreciate: The new version of the forum software allows us to customise our forum profile and personalise it a little, e.g. adding cover photos, perhaps to display your favourite photo of the moment on your profile. Here's mine. Would be good to see some others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dyertribe Posted February 25, 2017 Report Share Posted February 25, 2017 What happened to "reputation"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it is illogical to be able to give "greenies", but not be able to see how many someone has. They are an indication of how reliable a persons technical knowledge is (as well as how funny they are), so in my view should be included under the avatar, along with number of posts.

All of everyones reputations from the old software were present in the usual places at the very beginning of this new software and then Dan said he'd wiped them out to make space. They might all be wiped out for ever and unretrevable I don't know. 19 hours ago, RichM said: A suggestion which I thought some may appreciate: The new version of the forum software allows us to customise our forum profile and personalise it a little, e.g. adding cover photos, perhaps to display your favourite photo of the moment on your profile.

They might all be wiped out for ever and unretrevable I don't know. Then I am not best pleased. I understand the need to change the forum but there is no point in having greenies now. Might as well remove the green arrow/heart symbols and make even more space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were visable at the top of every post with the members name, number of posts etc and were removed to streamline the page and try to reduce the amount of wasted space. No idea why they have gone from the profile page where they always used to be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, they are only hidden to save space, and the data is still very much still there. 21 hours ago, tree monkey said: He removed them from the top of every post, I imagine the unexpected result of this has been to remove them from the members profile page where they always used to be Indeed. I could not seemly remove them from one and not the other. However I'm sure even if the option is not there is can be resolved with a plugin mod or we can have it back as it was.

mross Posted February 26, 2017 Report Share Posted February 26, 2017 (edited) No, that was a greenie. Likes appear on the top line of a post and are different from reputations. Edited February 26, 2017 by mross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
