Effect of clicking the post count number for a thread
For a while, when I clicked the post count number for a thread I would get a little popup window saying who had posted in the thread and how many posts they had made. Now when I click it, it takes me to the last post in the thread.
I recently changed to the SMAC theme, is that the cause of the change?

Simply saying "it still works" is uninformative. What I'm wondering is, what are the effects under the different styles?

Using Default Ultra-Special, clicking the # of posts opens a popup window with individual posters and their numbers of posts in that thread.

As previously stated, it seems that this feature is disabled in the "Light" forum styles, along with numerous other features.

At least you can be safe in the knowledge that when it does, rah is not far behind.

Is it possible to give each post within a thread a number relating to it's postition in the thread?

That way people don't say "look at my post halfway through page 3 for the answer to that argument."

It gets confusing as ppl have different posts/page settings...

Just a thought

Use the "link" link that is next to the "reply with quote" button. It lets you link people to specific posts.

I thought about that same thing yesterday. I tried right-clicking inside an actual post, but that only produced gibberish. Okay. I've learnt something today.

There's also a show single post feature. If you add "s=&action=showpost&" between "showthread.php?" and "postid=" it will only show that post.
Like so.

To tell you the truth, I'm surprised all these old-timers didn't know that feature before.

and here is this young whipper snapper with even more detailed info about linking to specific posts.

Its always the way. Most old folk don't trust or know about the latest thang. Though I must say, I knew about the feature ages ago.
