:smiley:
That gives me another interesting idea, have a reaction button that only shows the reaction to the individual user. That way they can virtually “scream into the pillow” without publicly releasing their emotions. :wink:

It does show the unread threads when I follow that link.. After one of the other updates I had this problem so I created an “unread” category on the left side. That works fine as well. ( https://budgetlightforum.com/unread?order=activity) I just don’t have an unread category in the top row.
Now there are unread items, but this is what I see:

Here is another weird thing. When viewing a thread, the thread title and the forum name seem to be piled on top of one another.

Yep, sorry about that, currently working on it.

woah weird, editing a comment changes the font to arial(?) until the page is refreshed. I can’t screencap it…and it only happens sporadically.

Sorry, that was also me, I was having an issue with the font style that I was trying to debug, but it appears to be only on my specific browser version for my specific OS.

Could iPhone / iPad users please confirm if everything is working?

Potential candidate for neutral “thanks” emoji :flashlight:

Not a bad idea, thanks! I believe the forum engine requires the icon to exist in this collection:

I see, that makes it a lot harder. I could see cloud-moon because people want the moon to go away for beamshots. But it doesn’t translate intuitively to “thanks”

I love the fact that “poo-storm” is a thing :rofl:

Wow, thousands a bunch of “light” icons to choose from. :+1:

EDIT:
I like the lightbulb variants. :slightly_smiling_face:

32

Are you sure those are the only options? I notice that the thumb we already have isn’t shown there. Or maybe that one is hardcoded as default

Oh I see now that the link had the options filtered by the word “light” if you remove that there’s more options that are still free.

I believe it’s this one: Thumbs Up Filled Icon (Classic Solid) — Free SVG Download | Font Awesome

Oops, sorry, I fixed the link now.

Any takers?

Working well on iPhone 8

I can add thumbs up and remove it too.

Edit button works, private messages seem fine too.

Both portrait and landscape working well also.

Thanks!

Seems like the full battery symbol could work as a thanks (battery-full)

Thanks a lot for confirming!

I assume iPads will work the same, but I’d still appreciate a report if anybody has time.

So far so good, haven’t run into any issues on phone or pad.

One thing I was having trouble with was adding a picture to a post. Once I’d begun a message the upload symbol below/right of the message box became inactive. I had to Reply and then Edit to add the pic without making any edit to the text or it would disable the button again. Working ok now.
