Is there some way to check at a glance which threads we've posted in? Something like the small green arrow in the last bf iteration. If not that, then we need a more robust subscribed threads option.

Just here to repeat what others are saying.

Tone down the flame icon, and posts are scrolling WAY too far to the right. Very annoying to read and navigate.

I'm also getting auto-logged-off now. Perhaps an option to adjust this in the settings would be nice?

Wrapping only works when browser is set to full-screen.

Can't set browser to full-screen at work because can't see what's going on under the browser.

Big Fail.

The new flame icons are really in-your-face and distracting. Can they be tamed down a bit?

Doesn't work. It's gotta be something in the template (Web dev here). The posts are being stretched out by something. And doing a quick glance at the source, it looks like it may be something in your CSS class "fullwidth"

I had the scrolling issue in Firefox, and no matter what I did (settings) it didn't work.
Just for grins I opened up forums in Chrome and there is no scrolling issue everything fits
full screen.

OK, I have the heads up to our tech people about this thread. They'll see it as soon as they get in this morning.....they are on Pacific time.

According to what I read at the vBulletin site, the threads too wide issue may be a setting on the Quick Reply box.

Ed:

As a global setting for the admin, not a user controlled size setting.

The reply to thread is in the small gray strip below a post.

The start new thread is in the dark short strip above all of the threads, below the header.

When I search for all posts by a given user (usually myself, to see if there's been activity on a thread I've posted to), it used to return a result that looked very similar to a normal forum listing (or the New Posts search). Now it looks a lot different. Any way to get the Find Users Posts search results back to the previous format?

Yeah, I know. but after I click on them, what I pasted is what the page that opens up looks like, and it is unresponsive.


Edit; quote, and edit work just fine.

Shouldn't it look the same in all browsers? IE and Firefox display different icons.
