The New Forum Features (part 2)

There are some new features in the forum. Right now, many of them are only available to moderators/admins (like all this neat html editing).

However, there are some cool features you can now make use of:

  • You can now follow a post and it will email you when there's been an update to a post you're following.
  • You can quote by starting your quote with the square brackets "[" quote "]" (but without the quote signs).
  • You can view just the posts you've posted.

More features to come!

Thanks. Now we can really do some damage. It doesn't matter which empire you are from if the universal translator is shoddy. Time for me to prowl the forum. :HOT:

How about adding an encyclopedia entry that summarizes all the forum features? I would like to see everything summarized in one place.

"You can view just the posts you've posted."

How about just the threads that I've responded to?

[" You can quote by starting your quote with the square brackets "[" quote "]" (but without the quote signs). "]

Test if this works for me.

To view just threads you've responded to, click the little magnifying glass icon at the bottom of any of the messages. Then you can use the "show my watch list" feature

I'm not sure, but the Boldface and Underline icons dont work in Mozilla. I'd appreciate if there were understandable instructions to do it manually.

Same with the "Quote" button". Doesn't work either.

You can get Mozilla at http://www.mozilla.org/
In my opinion (as well as others), it's a solid browser in its current state.

This is what I did.

Hilight the text you wan quoted, in this case the whole post, and then hit the quote icon. The text will appear in the message area.

Elrik: Nope.

Doesn´t work for me.

Must Jabba be enabled for this to work? I always have problems with Jabba. :D
