A little idea

Fighting Irish · 2006-03-27 16:39:18

I think it would be handy if we could have a link to "My Thread" & "Threads I Have Posted In" just under where it says "Private Messages" I've seen this at a couple of other forums on the net and it is very handy :) Also when i say "Threads I Have Posted In" i mean in this format: Not this format: Just a suggestion :)

To see your own threads, go into your profile and click the link to your threads.
I think the other suggestion is pointless.

Why would I want a link to "Threads Fighting Irish Has Posted In" just under where it says "Private Messages"?
Sorry.

If you need to go back to a thread that you deem important - subscribe to that thread?

Re: Ctrl + somekeyforquotes -> I don't think there is a shortcut for this. The formatting shortcuts are in place as the command sequences are quite common across platforms/broswers. I think that you'll find most ctrl+_ combinations are used by your web browser.

I don't think that saved searches will be re-populated tbh.

Your control panel also can store threads you have posted in or started that get replies since your last visit. Go have a look in the various options in there.

There's also the Subbed List which shows any threads you've subscribed to, so if you're set to auto subscribe to any thread you post in they'll show up here, complete with last poster/last post time.

The searches use a See Other (well, maybe they use a different redirect, but I'm going to assume they do it correctly for the sake of argument) to a cached page of results which gets stored for a brief period, so bookmarking that URI is pointless. However the links to search which pass parameters (keywords, userid, what have you) are bookmarkable.
