    Hi. :)

    In the email notifications, could the "User" in "User just added a new message to a thread called:" be changed to the real member's username? :D

    Thanks. ;)

    That is actually a very good point, I look into it and when I wake up, I might actually do it as well, if I still remember it :)

    Thanks dRD. :)

    Don't forget to change the redirect script, so a member gets redirected to his/her post after having written a new one or editing an exisiting one. ;)
    And reverting the order in which the posts appear under the reply box. :D

    In any case, nice work on the forums. :)

    Right below the big box where you type your reply is a little box with a check mark in it. Just uncheck this box when you reply to a post and you won't get the e-mail update.

    Forgot to mention that you need to unsubscribe to the ones you are already getting.

    Also is there a way for the system to recognize me so that I didn't get an e-mail when I was the one that added a new message.

    zippyd: It never does that. System never sends out an email to you when you were the person who added the reply.

    OK, It must just be the timing of when I get the mail and when I check the thread. I just thought that it did because there are alot of times when I check the update I get in the mail and it was me who had posted last. Thanks for clarifying that for me.

    Geee Wizzz Guys, no sense of adventure ?

    You want to know who the next person is who will be adding another problem -

    Huuummmpph, I'll bet you're the kind of person who wants to know what the baby will be when the "Little Missis" get's "Preggers" ? ?


    Yea, Animal, mineral or vegetable ?


    (Heh, heh, wait until that sinks in - :)

    Naaahh, thought the topic was good and needed a boost -

    IMHO, too many good ideas get lost - maybe the bosses don't care, maybe they don't have enough time and maybe by resurrecting things once in a while they might see it in a different light -

    Who knows, . . . . ?
