Would it be possible to add a direct link to the drop down menu you get when clicking on a person's name that will take you to more threads by that person? As opposed to navigating through their profile page.

That would be nice.

I agree that it would be nice! Although it wouldn't be an impossibility, it wouldn't be easy or straightforward, either (templates & files to edit, plus fun coding). I wouldn't count on something like this happening =(.

I would say when the site was moving exceptionally slowly that having one less step would have been nice (waiting 2+minutes for the page to move was agony)...however, since the site moves pretty fast now I dont find myself as bothered by it----(still would be nice though)

Okay, so, I went into the template and tried adding this feature for you guys. End result is... is that it partially works.

If you use the dropdown, you will see two slender, empty boxes at the bottom. The first one, if clicked, will take you to the threads that they started. Obviously the part that doesn't work is the text showing! (Same with Add Contact or whatever, which is the second box. That wasn't working before I made the change, though.)

So yeah, you can now use it, just remember it's the first empty clickable box. I'll try to fix the text, but I might not be able to. :[

There should be two boxes. The bottom one is friends list, the top is the threads one.

I have only one tiny box--not 2.

I fixed it!
I had to add a new variable to the languages file so that it was being properly called . You should see it now. Still working on fixing one other thing real quick...

//edit// The "add to contacts" link has been fixed, as well.

Also, can you please let us know if you're experiencing problems/don't see the changes. And let us know which browser & browser version you're using, and which forum skin version you're using (it has only been updated for the GWG 3).

//edit moar// Cosy, it isn't working for you because you're on version 2.
Cosy, you're also not able to see notices on V2 (which is why you miss them frequently ).

Jenn managed to get the text working properly. <3 Jenn.

cosy -- it works in FF so I'm not sure why you aren't seeing it. Check now that text has been added? Also, might want to check if you need to update your browser. Edit: What Jenn said above. We've changed it so that everyone uses the most updated style so that we don't come across anymore issues like this in the future.

Just a note to folks out there:
We've disabled the really old templates that this site used to use. There are a bunch of features simply not kept up to date on them, there are display issues, coding issues - all kinds of stuff. It wasn't really an option for us to go back and update all the old skins and associated templates.
