Why?

Post by BoSoxGal »

Do some topics have circles with rolling text, and others do not, and others have red stars, and others do not?

I cannot figure this out and it's maddening.

I think stars are active topics and rolling text are topics with many replies. I haven't fully tested it out though.
Okay... There's all kinds of things wrong with what you just said.

I think that assumption is correct.

I love the fact that we haven't worked out the buttons yet.

What's this one do?
Bah!

It's a big dilemma for me, I do not want to start buggering things "under the bonnet" about in case the whole place goes tits up.

Just when it's all getting interesting.

I'm pretty sure the stars indicate that you've posted in that thread.

How come some threads have a "quick reply" button and others don't?

I'll ask the admins...



..oh, hang about, that's me....

Could it be that the ones which didn't have a quick reply button were maybe the ones you set up? :rsp

They should now all have quick reply :lol:
