.John. Posted November 13, 2005 Posted November 13, 2005 When hovering over a topic title in forum or search view, having the first line or two be displayed: Example:
MikeChristopher Posted November 13, 2005 Posted November 13, 2005 I have had a few people ask for this recently - I know at the moment it tells you the time and date of when the topic was posted and also tells you to hold down to edit the title with the new ajax feature. How easy would this be to code as a modification whilst its being thought about :)
.John. Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 Yes, vB has this - and I use it on every vB board I frequent - I love it. It should be added into IPB as well, hense the suggestion.
LightFang Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 lol, i have been thinking about this future myself. Even IdealBB has it. Now this just tells us how far away IPB is from making a good Online application. I think IPB has been more optimists lately. Now they don't even give a rats ass about our opinion.
SpireInc Posted November 16, 2005 Posted November 16, 2005 I think IPB has been more optimists lately. Now they don't even give a rats ass about our opinion. Of course IPB has taken this turn. I realized this with my own experiences with IPB when I began to compile an extremely long bug/fix list.
.John. Posted November 16, 2005 Posted November 16, 2005 Anyone else like this idea besides MikeC, LightFang, and I?
candes Posted November 17, 2005 Posted November 17, 2005 Anyone else like this idea besides MikeC, LightFang, and I?It was advertised as being part of 2.1 when it was initially announced. And I swear that it was a part of IPB months ago. What happened to it? Perhaps I am wrong, but I thought I even saw it being used on this very forum.
TCWT Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 I like this idea but maybe some members won't even read the entire topic after the snippet..
Sam A Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 This feature has been debated so many times, and every time it's the same outcome - it won't be added.
Brandon C Posted November 20, 2005 Posted November 20, 2005 This feature has been debated so many times, and every time it's the same outcome - it won't be added. Why is that? I personally would like to see this feature implemented into a future version of IPB. +1.
ihiustler Posted November 21, 2005 Posted November 21, 2005 there was a mod for 2.0 that did this, except it did not work on search pages or "get latest posts" pages, which made it useless since 90% of my members only use those pages.
lupin84 Posted November 22, 2005 Posted November 22, 2005 Yes I'd love this too. :) I've used this feature on other forums and it's a shame it hasn't been added to IPB yet.
Coastie Posted November 22, 2005 Posted November 22, 2005 Why is that? Database and bandwidth intensive to pull and push all the content.
Shyatic Posted November 25, 2005 Posted November 25, 2005 Why can't they use AJAX to call when the mouse hovers over, instead of pre-loading all the information? Seems logical to me....
ZeroSum Posted November 26, 2005 Posted November 26, 2005 I personally don't see the point of this mod. IMO It's a waste of a programmer's time.
.John. Posted November 26, 2005 Posted November 26, 2005 I would have thought it'd be stupid too, but when you use a board with it - it proves to be quite helpful.
.SiLlY. Posted January 15, 2006 Posted January 15, 2006 For what it's worth, I also vote "+1" for this addition. :)
ZainZ Posted January 16, 2006 Posted January 16, 2006 This is a gr8 feature, is there ANY modification available for this?
athlonkmf Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 pfooh. I've already made a mod for it. It uses ajax to prevent too much bandwidth and sql-queries. Just have to finish up a better javascript to center the popup better.http://asianfanatics.net/forum/index.php?act=idx it's still kinda hidden. It appears when you click the "last post"-cell
.John. Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 For anyone interested, a topic preview edit has been added to the Download Manager at IPSBeyond :)

.John. Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 I'd be very interested in using this when it's released. :) Check out the post in between yours and the one you quoted ;)
Sam A Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 Check out the post in between yours and the one you quoted ;) I seen that, I just don't like Dean's mods.
.John. Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 I seen that, I just don't like Dean's mods. Dean didn't submit it...
Sam A Posted January 20, 2006 Posted January 20, 2006 Dean didn't submit it... Isn't it based on his work ? :blink:
