Semi-Annual Site Suggestions, Complaints, etc. Thread

[DRIVEN]

Agreed. Those would be good suggestions for this thread... viewtopic.php?f=24&t=13207#.Uk97znniETA .
I wish it was required reading before joining.

For the guys clicking on outside links, if you're using a Windows computer, right-click on the link and then left-click on "Open Link in New Tab."

This is a workaround I use on nearly every site I go to, mostly because I'm impatient for pages to load and I like to multitask.

When you click on a new post on the main page under the banner, it brings you to the last page and the most recent post. Sometimes I don't get on here for a few days, so I click on the "New Posts (##)" under my avatar on the right side menu, and it brings up a complete list of new posts. When you click on these, it takes you to the first page, not the most recent post. I know you can hit the page number in the little square, but it would kind of make sense to go to the most recent post.

Otherwise, this forum is awesome as are the people on it. Our car club uses the same software I believe and it doesn't even work half as nice as this one.

- Common design across sections (forum/photos/store/chat)

I support this. The photos section sort of feels like an entirely separate site. Is there any way for users to get notifications when their photo is commented on?

Good call. I'm for this too probably as the most important adjustment.

I don't know. It's basically two entirely separate packages with just a tiny bit of code connecting them (the user list)... I'll have to look. I've grown to dislike the photo album software, but I'm kind of stuck with it at this point If I could easily move it all into something else I'd do it. Noted and yeah, that would be a nice feature to have.

An even easier way is if you have a mouse with a clickable scroll wheel. Hover your mouse over the link you wish to go to and click down the scroll wheel. This will also open the link in a new tab.
