    Yes, the code provided by Mr 13 does in fact work @BankFodder . We have implemented it on our forums. I do agree though that making it an option or available to Administrators from within the ACP would be nice. Thank you @Mr 13

    Regardless of how one views it Visual cues are sensory cues received by the eye that many people process and understand better than text or menus. 

    Referencing a post or ID# seen onscreen without having to copy or quote and paste it would help reduce clutter as well as I would find it difficult to believe that making a handicapped person perform an additional 3 or 4 more clicks to obtain or reference the same thing would meet muster for the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA)

    Good points!  No disrespect to the devs...they are doing an awesome job!  But sometimes it is easy to over think stuff!  I have found that my members don't like to click and search for stuff...it is extra work now for them to look for the edit button or report button.  Sometimes visual clutter can be more efficient...LOL!

    I believe what you're seeing in 4.5 is intentional with the revisions in the default 4.5 theme. Note that the hamburger menu is now on the same horizonal bar as the logo, where in 4.4 there was an extra navigation bar above the logo. This means you need spacing on the right.

    To get it back to how it was, you'll need to customize your 4.5 theme.

    This is true!!  I wonder why the Dev's changed this...4.4 was near perfect!  I think the hamburger menu should stay on the nav bar with the other 3 icons!

  3. @Adriano Faria Will this App get a 4.5 upgrade?  I'm not in a huge hurry or anything, just curious on an ETA.

    Scratch that...I see it is upgraded for 4.5!  I was just looking back to my 4.5 test board when I tried to install it and it would not work.

    ALSO...can I upgrade from 2.4.0 straight to 2.5.x?

    Thanks!

  4. Yeah, I don't want that...LOL!  On MyBB, the editor had a HTML formatting toggle button even if the members were NOT allowed to add HTML in posts.  The toggle just allowed them to change H1 tags or center tags, colors and stuff like that...not to upload HTML scripts.  You could toggle to HTML and grab the direct image link to a posted attachment if needed also.  It was useful but probably not necessary.

    The theme editor isn't working correctly, if you apply your own colours and font etc then it screws up the formatting completely.  What is wrong with that?  

    I'm not running any other themes, plugins or apps.  

    I have a post in the bug tracker started...does this sound like your issue?

    so your saying the block wont be there if I delete the announcement or disable it so when I create an announcement it automatically makes that block on sidebar. Thanks for the reply I will give it a shot Thanks again.

    Correct, the box will hide when there are no announcements.

    I used the create on the navbar to make a block on side bar called Announcements now I want to delete it and can not figure out where can anyone help?

    Check Moderator CP under Announcements (on the left side)...you should be able to disable or delete.

    So write an article and explain it to them. 😉 I can easily link  one post and another from this topic. Other than the “that’s how we always did it”, there really is no advantage in having me retrieve post numbers and then having every user manually trying to navigate to those numbers. 

    It's not that they were using post numbers to navigate to them...members that were follow a large topic would just remember what posts they were at, how many new posts were after a certain post, etc.  Post numbering worked as a kind of 'timeline' within a topic!

    What would you do when posts are deleted? Renumber the posts so that "check out post 4 with the answer" no longer points to the actual answer (it's now post 3) - or leave gaps in the numbering so it's obvious when content has been merged, deleted or moved?

    We try not to delete any posts because of what it does to the context of a thread!  Obviously, we delete spam posts or rule violation posts which basically would result in skipped numbering.  Never seemed to be an issue.
