    This is unfortunately a limitation of the XF software which became apparent earlier today. It only allows a list to be predefined, and doesn't allow the other to have a box to fill in as part of that list, like vB did.

    It's something that's on the list of things to review and determine a solution for. We've had to launch without it (and various other solutions) to ensure that our launch wasn't delayed any further.

    I just wanted to thank Martin and whomever the tech admin may be for restoring the functions of my account because of a bug. I really like the way the forum looks and how much better it looks on mobile.

    Just wanted to make you aware of another bug. I can't seem to quote previous comments. I can hit the quote button, but it does nothing.
    :joy:

    That's a multi-quote builder. :slight_smile:

    If you only want to reply to a single post, you click 'reply'. If you see a variety of posts you want to reply to, you just click 'quote' next to them all and you'll see that the 'post reply' box then has a 'insert quote' box appeared. Select that and you can add those various quotes to reply to, rather than having to manually code them all yourself. :slight_smile:

    Is there a way to make threads display with most recent post at the top? For myself, I mean, not globally.

    Is there a way to have our age shown on our profile without showing our birthday, or rather have our birthday only visible to us? I've tried in the settings to only show the year rather than the full birthday, but it doesn't seem to work.

    I don't know why, but I'm fine with everybody knowing my age but not my birthday.

    I just asked our tech admin and, unfortunately, there isn't such an option. He pointed out that there is a 'Go To First Unread' button whenever you have partially ready a thread, which should take you to the most recent unread post. That wouldn't always be the most recent if there has been one more than one reply, but it would hopefully save you a bit of scrolling. Sorry about that!

    That's an interesting find. I'll tag @Dillon so he can look into this.

    I know it used to be an option on vBulletin, so if it's do-able on here he'll know how. :slight_smile:

    I know this is trivial...but I noted that it appears blog entries have vanished. (I notice this with my profile,and also a couple of others I know had a blog here.) Will those old blog entries be eventually be appearing? Or does the user have to repost? (Not, of course, that anyone really wants to read my insane babbles... LOL)

    I don't want others too see the last post/profile I've been watching... it's like anyone can chase me and find the place where I am: a bit scary.

    Just curious, are the GIF avatars no longer going to be a possibility? It is okay if so, but you know, I had a reputation going.
