Rheddy Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 Does anyone know why the "Start New Topic" button was removed from the topic view? I actually found it very useful when I needed to post new topics two at a time or three at a time.
Pereira Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 It was useful but not something I will miss as it's only one extra click away from me. No that big of a deal in my opinion anyway.
Rheddy Posted August 5, 2011 Author Posted August 5, 2011 I think I'm going to search through the skin code and add it back in there ... I do miss that button, it was helpful for me, where it concerns the type of community I have.
Richard.C Posted September 21, 2011 Posted September 21, 2011 adriano has a hook which adds it back in 3.2.x, no edits needed, look for it in the marketplace
Feneroin Posted September 24, 2011 Posted September 24, 2011 Why IPS remove their useful features? I hate vB for this and now IPS do samething, annoying :dry:
Marcher Technologies Posted September 24, 2011 Posted September 24, 2011 Why IPS remove their useful features? I hate vB for this and now IPS do samething, annoying :dry: Because most everything they removed can be replaced with hooks, the system regarding which has improved tremendously?? Not wanting to start any kind of flaming... but my humble reasoning.
Feneroin Posted September 24, 2011 Posted September 24, 2011 Default useful features are better than the hooks... And more practically... Because now we need to find it and install it...and if this hook will work on that version or not...etc... Soon we will need the hooks for avatars, signatures and in the future for adding categories and forums when IPS remove these on default :)

Not likely... at ALL... whats a forum software without... forums?
insectdude Posted September 24, 2011 Posted September 24, 2011 I get the concept of removing redundant or little-used features, but can't see how the Start New Topic button falls into this category, nor how its removal makes the code easier to maintain. I missed the button within a day of upgrading my site. Needless to say I installed the hook to add it back as soon as it became available.
