Top Left corner next to 3-bar icon, says Quick Links - they have all consolidated there.
Not there, I used to be able to start viewing a forum, click top right for the next post or previous post in the forum, not there (or under the hamburger) now :cry:

Wow - a lot of work!

One minor query - where has the section on 'Wants' gone? It may be staring me in the face, but I can't find it.

Already noted. It's meant to be visible only if you have more that 40 posts. Not sure what is going on as I can see the section using your board permissions. https://uamf.org.uk/viewforum.php?f=90

Just wanted to congratulate you James on all your hard work. Very well done done for turning this around so quickly. I think the layout is very clear and, even for myself(someone who's not very good with computers), extremely easy to follow.

Top job :beer:
Regards,

Is it possible to show a thread's author, as well as/instead of who made the last post?
Best wishes

Are you looking at the site on a mobile? I think some bits of info get hidden on phone to fit everything into less space.

Yep, on my mobile at present. The old software would show it even viewing on a mobile (desktop view) but I guess as there is no longer a difference some things have to go ;-)

Jim: that question came up on another PHP based forum and after a lot of digging: It is there on desktop but not on mobile, and "original poster" is not available as a standalone column either; and it seems you cannot get an option (any more) for mobile to have a secondary mode so as to still display "as you could see in desktop" (or you couldnt do this 6 month back... if it comes available in due course is another option)

Is there any chance of getting the code to allow "like" options? I did ask this a long time ago, and it was mentioned that if/when an upgrade happened ... (I know the code exists to allow it to be incorporated in php boards).

The option of being able to just click "like" allows people to indicate something, if they dont want to keep saying "lovely work" or whatever, and it at least lets the OP see that someone is at least showing an interest in their work, whereas if you dont get much interest shown, you do start to wonder if you should repetitively post both on your bench and in whatever sub-section is applicable/ or in-addition to your group build or whatever

All the best

If you access to a computer if you reduce the width of the browser window you will see how the layout adapts to the smaller screen size. This is essentially what happens for mobile devices.
