What do you think about adding reactions to posts? I've seen the Yesterweb forum and other forums have this feature and I think it's a really cool idea.

See this discussion about it: https://forum.melonland.net/index.php?topic=1178.0 feel free to add your own thoughts there!

Listen I'm more than certain that this feature exists and I'm just missing it.

Can we unsubscribe from topics? Aka stop them from appearing in the 'unread replies'? I've found a 'Return to the topic' tick under the advanced options when replying, but would that require for me to post in the topic again first?

Like I don't mind, it keeps the discussion going, but also some threads, like "Search the username above you", I know I won't be coming back to (my username search results are all me, it's boring for everyone)...

Is there a magic button anywhere that I'm not seeing? ^^"

Hmmmm, so "subscribing" usually means that you signed up for notifications about a topic? To un-notify yourself you can click the notify button next to the reply button. BUT the "unread replies" page actually just shows all unread replies on the forum, it's not individualised at all (as far as I know).

Ice did request a "hide certain topics" feature, (a bit like topic blocking, but less harsh sounding) - that's something Iv been looking into, but it would hide the topic entirely.

I will do some more research into what you're requesting which is the ability to customise the unread replies page! :eyes:

Let me try to explain somewhat better what I mean :ohdear:

So there's the Unread Topics, which just shows all the active topics on the forum, which is cool, but Unread Replies specifically only shows updates in topics where I've left at least one reply myself (I suspect that may equal to almost all topics for you since you participate in so many  :grin: ), it happens by default, the only topic I've ever clicked 'notify' on is the Birthdays one.

It's a cool feature 'cause I can quickly check if there are updates in topics where I'm currently engaged in discussion, but once I stop (or if the topic is not much of a discussion, like the game ones) it'd be cool to be able to drop the topic and only keep the relevant ones in there

(I'm gonna uncheck 'Return to this topic' in 'Attachments and other options' right now and see if that does it)

Oh you right!!

It looks like this has been an issue for a really long time: https://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=375491.0

The solution they are suggesting is the same solution to Ice's request, but the reason that it has not been added yet is because it's missing a button on this forums theme and I'm still working out how to make that button work :ziped:

That thread I linked actually goes into a really technical deep dive into how the unread replies page works and why it's really hard to add an unsubscribe feature (the short answer is, if you remove your replies from the thread, you'll be unsubscribed - but that's not very helpful!)

This will require more research! But thank you for pointing this out :ozwomp:

Mine is not super important, but I was wondering, since we have previews for posts, can we also have a preview option for the signature on the profile customization? Now when editing, you have go back and forth between a post of yours and the editor :omg:

I usually just design my signature in an unposted reply using its preview then copy the code over - but its a good suggestion :grin:

I was thinking about a profile design contest. Maybe yearly (or quarterly?). People "sign up" to attend and then there's a poll for who has the coolest profile design. Winner gets one of these little profile gift thingies like "Coolest Profile Design 2023" or so :ha:

They were added during the BIG update bonanzas of February-March - so far not the most popular feature, but still useful when you need them!

Sorry if this has been requested before but is there any way to show quoted replies? I feel like it would help users visualize specific discussion threads instead of just having them find the end of the thread and going back up. Something like:

post post post oh look at my post.
-----
signature signature what a beautiful signature!
-----
quoted by: user1, user2

where if you click the usernames you jump to that specific reply.

I feel like the font size for the quotes should be made larger. It's really tiny in comparison to everything else! I find myself manually increasing the font size every time I want to use quotes, which isn't ideal.

It also makes the smileys look a little odd as well!  :sad:

Done! (clear cache)

hand waving emoji so I can wave hello
I weirdly cant find one in my collection - I have lots of gifs of microwaves, or waves in the sea, or hellokittys - but no hand waves!!
