I wanted to try out a couple of things, and this was useful, lol!!

Please feel free to try anything out on this thread that you want to, such as name changes etc.. then delete when you've got it sorted, again,if you want to.. And if anyone has any answers to any questions.. way hay, that'll be great too xxxx

Love

Next I want to see what happens if I change my mind and don't post after I've written

MrDaff

MrDaff Report 22 Aug 2007 19:49

Nothing, so that's ok then.. a number of people requested that posters checked what they had written before posting, and genes have provided that facility. And so you can change your mind if you want to.

Can you go straight in and submit, without previewing?

Hello Jill, that looks great, and guess what, I can see what you've written just above me, so it's much better to answer people on the threads and get all your names and spellings, who said what's right, too!!

Love

Well, I have to say that a couple of the suggestions that people have made on these boards have, um, been taken on board, so to speak lol.

MrDaff

MrDaff Report 22 Aug 2007 20:01

Yes, it's gone Kitty, but if you hover over your name you will be able to see your own number... we couldn't do that before, only for other peoples', which seemed a bit silly to me.

And you don't seem to need the refresh button, cos as soon as you have submitted your post, you get to see the thread complete, rather than just up to where you started the post...

But you can't get back to the message list by using the back button or is it just me i.e if you are on say page 3 read a message then want to return to that page use the back button you go back to page one not the one you were viewing....or is it me!
