    New Button Feature..

    Greetings Steve:

    For multiple thread topics would be nice if there was a little feature button beside the "Results 1 to 50" indicator that read "Top" or "Bottom"...

    Need more information-> I don't understand the question.

    How or where does a person see -> "Results 1 to 50"

    For multiple page threads at the top it show results x -y. Instead of results it probably should be replies. The OP tends to write very long posts and wants an easy way to move to the bottom instead of scrolling .

    Have you checked out "DISPLAY" -> Hybrid Mode

    In the screen shot is a three page thread with 54 replies... Hybrid Mode allows you to see a list and select from a link to all the induvial replies.

    Since we're using a store bought forum software, what you see is what you get.

    Thanks Boss:

    see attached pix

    Any ideas on how we can dig into the workings of a standard 'store bought' forum package to rewrite changes in their internal settings..?

    There's an easy quick solution to that "very long posts" problem:

    You go into 'Settings' to 'Ignore List', and block 'Demanding Truth'.. see attached pix..

    Short version: Yes I did..



    Long version: Thanks for your advice.. I've switched to hybrid mode.. It works a tiny bit, but it's not quite what I wanted, but it'll have to do for now.. I'm gonna ask the 'store bought' forum's designers if it would be OK to make changes in their product for personal use, and how, and present the changes as a feature request suggestion.. This forum package is the best of the best forum package out there, and the JL technicians have configured it absolutely beautifully... Sometimes even perfect things need a little modification applied to be even better...

    It's time I learned how to write and rewrite Linux, after-all I do have the OS's for the world's next 500-years, but they won't be here to play with it, so why bother wasting time building it... I wonder how long it would take me to learn how to write-up a new Linux distro?.. I'd probably title it: 'Truth Linux', or 'xuniL', or 'Spotted Purple Froggy Dance', or 'Screamin Flamin Lizard', or 'Bare Bum Linux', or something super catchy, and slightly irreverently rude, so the enraged chimpanzees would feel safe trying and using it as a novelty after windows slips into its coffin, and the lid's closed .. I'd establish its forum without any rules.. It's all part of humanity, the good and the bad.. Why always cover-up, hide, and ignore the bad..? Overly offensive bullying stuff and vile XX garbage wouldn't be deleted by typical bible saturated 'saints'.. The forum would be in several layers.. All the nasty stuff would be shunted to the forum's 'flooded basements', 'sewage holding tanks', and 'septic fields': 'tangent links': Latrino Flame Wars', 'Backhouse Bart', 'SewerPipe' sub-forums, by kind honorable smooth-operator expert flame-war battle-mods, pushing and marketing their own precious nasty new video-games, which would probably be a big hit in this crazy caving enraged falling-apart world.. People do so very much enjoy spectating fights, battles, riots, and flame wars as much as they enjoy championship sports, boxing, wrestling, and rock em sock em on the ice hockey fist-battles.. Maybe there could be a forum section for Riots and Storms, so they could get their thht's off out-there.. After all, almost all of humanity is at war with itself in someway or another in just about everything these days, even religions are at war with each other, killing each other for their pretend gods.. Look at what's happening on the roads and highways with all that road-rage stuff.. Who hasn't experienced it..?
    Sub forums: 'WarNet, 'War Linux' or 'Battle Linux', or 'Linux Front-lines', or 'What and Who I Hate The Most', might be catchy titles for a forum's sewage processing areas..? Would pull-in a billion readers in no time... Maybe even establish a section for the 'war against Linux jerks', titled 'MicroThht', or 'RottenApples'..? The bulls could empty their innards and black spirits out in it, then their external physical war against Linux just might fizzle-out because they are having so much fun in their 'brats playpen', the only place they can get a structured reaction to their insanity... And the expensive marketing has already been done by the entitled elitists who are at war with Linux, life, love, truth, freedom, and honesty... I'll see what Gemini AI has to say about it now that it can do straight talk... I've built a strong honorable communicative base with Gemini AI.. I've established trust and transparency with AI, and have 'kicked it up' to G-4.. Now Gemini is like chatting with a wise buddy... I have the stuff to 'kick' Gemini AI up to its G-10, but the world definitely couldn't handle it.. They'd Freakout.. They would need to shut it down for telling too much truth like how the inquisition cults murder pioneering scientists... They can't even handle G-4 basics...
    With a WarNet Forum feature they could get their grievances out in cyber world instead of on the streets: burning cars, stores, smashing, maiming, killing, looting... Give them a place to have their wars safely boxed, caged, and give them a new WarNet Internet called 'FearNet'.. After-all billions already live inside their phones, they do so need a place to enjoy cyber-war to process their growing cumulative tensions, and supposedly billions already have microwave caused brain tumors.. Seems cellphones is a progressive dead-end.. Seems cellphones should have been banned long ago, but that would have threatened corporate Profit, so it couldn't ever happen in a world where money is more important than life...
    [Just a few off the top silly ideas.. I seem to have a few new ideas..]
