Some more minor forum changes... - Carn - 20-09-2010 08:32 PM

With the latest update having been applied successfully I was able to activate and modify a few new features Clap


1st up is the addition of a Related Threads box at the bottom of every thread...

In this box you will find up to 5 similar threads which hopefully contain similar content. As you can see from the example above, Minimike19's latests Mini thread has pulled 3 similar Mini posts from the forum Thumb


Next up is the activation of a thread edit time limit. When enabled this will limit regular users from editing their posts after 5 days have passed.

I've had experiences in the past where I have been looking for a specific post I had seen previously, and despite viewing all the relevant threads I cannot find it. In some instances this is due to the user having edited their posts after I had initially seen it.

I think 5 days is long enough to mull over your post and make any changes you may deem necessary. In extreme cases once the 5 days have passed you will require a mod or section admin to make the changes for you Thumb


Lookout for a few more changes to be implemented in the coming days and weeks Thumb


As always any questions and suggestions are welcomed Wavey
