This is a great move. Thank you.

I use Yourls, the self hosted link shortener. It's awesome. https://yourls.org

Hi Matt, just circling back to this to give you a nudge and make it known that I think it would still be be fantastic if community owners had the ability to enable/disable this stuff :~)

Wow, that’s some serious dedication to passkeys.

Should we let you know on the Alpha site or here on the production site?

Not on my site. But I can see that issue on another site. I would but IC seems to be against third party anything and it’ll become a liability when moving to v5.

When I wake up and the Europeans have been bickering about something off topic all night, I have no choice. When a user says, "hey can you move posts 31, 51-70, 73, 88," finding those post numbers in a thread, selecting the posts, then selecting Split to new topic is dead simple.

In the report posts mod page, can I move 50 reported posts at one time to a newly created topic? 50 shared URLs is a fool's errang to work with as a moderator seeking to create a new topic for all of them.

I totally get it, but allowing us community owners to decide if we want to enable them would be the best solution for us. My issue is about splitting off topic posts into new topics as a moderator. When a topic has 50 off topic posts, among 500 on topic posts, and they are weaved into the topic all over, it's very hard for a moderator to split the right posts into a new thread, without something like "please move posts 35, 50-71, 74." Users are the ones reporting this stuff to the moderators. Post numbers make it easy for both them and us.

Thanks Randy. Such a bummer. Saying something like post 45, 51-70, 72, etc... is much easier than sending me links to 30 posts that I need to click on.

I'm requesting post numbers be an option to enable/disable. The reason why I really want these is because I often get notified about conversations that have gone way off topic. There may be 20 pages of on topic, mixed with off topic, and some in the middle. When a member of the community asked me to move the off topic posts to another topic, I have to read through every post in the 20 pages, understand each one within the content of the discussion, and make a decision which posts to move. It's impossible. If posts had numbers, I could just ask which posts people want moved, and it would be simple.

It would also be really nice to be able to give the topic originator the ability to be a moderator of his post or posts. I used to use such a mod.

OK one more question: Is it possible to give topic starters the ability to recommend posts?

This was beyond simple. Thank you so much for the help!

Oh dang! If I follow this correctly, I could just recommend the most current version of the list, in whatever post, and it will be at the top?
