Thread prefixes

Pottsy · 22nd April 2007, 11:02

You may have noticed the "thread prefixes" that have been in the Gallery for a while, but are now in bugs, electronics, ICE, engines and lights.

I quite like them - the ability to quickly see all posts on one subject is quite cool. I also quite like the fact that I can see posts from multiple forums - try going to the advanced search page and searching for prefix "transmission" and check to show "threads" (or click here for a demo: http://www.civinfo.com/forum/search....x=Transmission )

Do you like them? Or are they a PITA?

Just when I think you have peaked out you go even higher!

Excellent feature.

have a drink on me.

Thank you! I forgot to apologise for the day or so when I was adding them, it was kind of like doing surgery on the patient while he was still awake. Got a few errors appearing (javasacript in MS Internet Explorer only) and some odd results, but all should be working fine now.

PTR - it's too late, you are permanently in the "don't understand" group.
