When we link to a website within a post, is there a way to have it link to another tab so we don't have to leave IHB? Sorry if this has already been addressed, I haven't read through all the Wish List items.

Not that I am aware of, sorry. These forums use SafeHTML to prevent links/tables/pictures from distorting the webpages beyond recognition or use. Remember how pages on the old forums would sometimes be broken after a post that had a wierd link in it? Well, that can't happen here. There might be a setting on the control panel, but I have yet to find anything on the software forums about it. You *might* be able to adjust a setting in your particular brand of web browser.
 
You could probably hand code it. I don't recall the code, but will look it up. Alternately, when I see a link, I right click and select open in new window.
 
Question. Sometimes I see a sentence that I want to respond to...but not the whole post. I usually cut and past the sentence, then italicize it. I see this box now with the word "QUOTE" at the bottom of a post. I've hit that, then highlighted the sentence I want to respond to...but it then copies the entire post, not just the sentence. How is it that you all are quoting just one sentence ?

Troop, I just copy the sentence that I want to use and then paste it in the message box. Then I highlight the sentence and hit the "quote" button. :-)
 
ok, that's a start...but look at how Nude quoted you up about 3 posts. It says your name, time posted...etc. That's what I want to do.

Oh well, while we’re on subject of what we want, would it be possible to add “mark all as read” to the page showing the list of unread topics?

I was thinking that as well. I was going to post that suggestion, but I didn't want to read all the suggestions to see if it was already posted. For some psychological reason, I don't like to have any green dots on my screen. :coolsmile:

This is taken from a comment on the function within the source code:

We're basically cheating here. All we're doing is updating the 'last_visit' date for the given user. Since we determine which posts have been read based on the date of the last visit, if we make the last_visit equal to now we will inadvertenly make all posts read. I suspect we will need to do this a different way in the future but for now it works.

As it stands now, the "Mark All Posts As Read" function cannot differentiate based on category or topic, it is a universal setting. Sorry.
