I suggested the same for a search function. The only reply I got was Gboy saying there should be a punishment room for soviets with bad ideas. This reply was liked by Pap so I wouldn’t hold your breath on it happening. Hopefully, you will have more luck with the Brexit request.
I don’t think it was the search function that was decryed as a bad idea. I think it was more the pap-based rules you were looking to introduce.
Search is not as great as it could be. I can look at implementing a full text function as a stop-gap measure, but we will shortly be discussing a more wholesale makeover, which will incorporate a huge number of improvements, including search. This is something we can bring to fruition within months.
I don’t want to put pressure on el bletcherino or the Soviet, but he’s done so much of the up-front work that I wouldn’t see it being any longer than 3 months.
Be scared.
He’s mining all our data and feeding it to Led Reeds’ son so he can get 1st dibs on signing us up

Can we leave certain people behind?
Shhhhhhhh…
OK I have a minor niggle at the moment.
Chrome on android, phone or tablet, sometimes the new post notifications don’t reset themselves when I visit a topuc, also it doesn’t remember that I have visited a topic and puts me back to an old post when I revisit the topic.
This all goes away for a while if I refresh the page…
Have seen the same thing.
I wanted to update the forum software, but as I mentioned down the pub I want to show you how to do it - young Jedi.
Let me know if you’re around one evening to do it. I’ll need an SSH public key from you in case you need to ssh to the box (if it fails).
You’ve just bored half our forum into sleep or worse, poindexter.
OK, I have just been moved, at work, to an Ultra widescreen monitor, consequently my browser windows is now very wide, however the Sotonians pages don’t take up much space and look a bit orphaned.
Are there any options to make the Sotonian’s page fit to the browser width or a percentage off it rather than have it, seemingly, have a maximum width…
Here’s a screen grab, you can see the huge, wasted space, on both sides of the discussion.
You’ve got a text size setting in the user settings that is device specific. i.e. if you set the font to large on your PC, it won’t change the text size on your phone.
Then I’d just zoom the browser in until the screen width is at the right level.
I believe that Chrome remembers the zoom level and that it is site specific. Seems that way to me anyway.
Hold on I’ll just convert the site to a .pdf file.
Edit: Just done it what topic do you want to view?
Huge wasted space?
Like this over-large screenshot?
I know what’s gone on here, @BTripz. You’ve used this post to say “hey girls, look at my large inch-laden monitor” while having a go at @saintbletch.
You’re also making me defend him. It’s a double whammy.
A man of your talent should be able to inspect the page, and change the width of that central pane.
Go on, I dare you. You’ll be back here within a day with the neck-strain of someone that has just attended a particularly frenetic tennis tournament, or alternatively, darting minces like “Eagle Eyes” Action Man.
Morning all, quick questoin and something that maybe @Polski_Filip has been alluding to, are any of you experiencing issues with embedded tweets not showing properly on you device, like this
If so can you please respond with what device and whether you’re connected via data, WiFi or a VPN.
Cheers
