Please read the thread above. The issue is likely with Firefox. We're working on it, but I suggest anyone using Firefox use an alternate browser for the time being. IE and Chrome aren't perfect but are much more functional than Firefox right now.
Wow, thanks! :) Yes, definitely MUCH better with Safari. Sorry if I missed what amounts to a FAQ, though I confess that I combed the "glitch" topic a couple of times, and I *still* don't see anything like "avoid firefox," but I probably just missed it. It's kind of late out here on the right coast (at least for my old eyes ...)

No worries! It's in there, but it is becoming a rather lengthy thread... :retard:

I was looking around on another forum and I noticed this feature. By just holding the cursor over the thread title gives a preview of the first post in the thread. Pretty cool feature that may help along with the similar threads at the bottom when looking for a certain topic.

Interesting feature. That site uses vBulletin (paid script, for which we don't have the scratch for), and we run phpBB (free script) but I'll search around to see if there's an equivalent MOD.

I would like to be able to enter a longer Title string for a post. Seems like we have the real estate on the page to do that for the title.

Hello,

One thing I'd like to see is on individual posts/topics with multiple pages is an option to click a button that shows all posts in single page rather than shuffling through multiple pages.

I searched around a bit and it doesn't appear that there is an easy way to implement something like that on this particular forum software.
