Forum Ideas, Bugs and Requests

Sorted, ty

Thank you!
So, this is a bit complicated to explain, so bear with me:
Okay, so the forum has been a lot more busy lately.
And with that in mind, if people don't happen to be on the forum every single day, they may miss a lot when they come back.
So, I was thinking, the link on the forum webpage that says: " Latest Threads", could that perhaps be replaced with "Latest Activity".
Basically, I was thinking the ticker that says "Latest Forum Activity", could then be ballooned into a further link to view more threads that cross the threshold seven listings.
So a hybrid of the "Latest Threads" and "Latest Forum Activity" in one page.
Then if you miss a few days, you could conceivably see the latest post activity for the last, say 1 OR 2 OR 5 OR 7 day increments (not all, just throwing out ideas)

Like, we don't need every post highlighted, I just mean every canonical thread that's received a new post in the date range you suggest.

Edit: hmm, disregard all of that I think - I just figured out that the search tool is very powerful, and allows "since last login", and everything about the date ranges in my "Grand 'Ole Idea"...

Latest threads shows you threads posted since your last log-on time in the database.

Oh I’m blonde. Thank you. Either way I figured out that the search tool is very powerful

This is regarding the site and not strictly the forum (I hope that's fine to post here), but I found a very minor typo on the Handheld PC Devices & Specifications page. If you select any device, and scroll down to "Buying Resources", it states to check the HPC:Facctor Community Forums.

Fixed, thanks

On 12 February I got a second private message from C:Amie letting me know that I received the SCL App Submissions badge, which I had already received June of last year.

That badge's page now only shows torch and C:Amie as receivers of that badge so it seems something went wrong and that group's membership got purged.
SCL App Submissions

@dionysius that amuses me. Looks like it choked somewhere along the way and purged the dataset. It is fixed now, thanks. Bug slayer badge awarded

I was wondering what I submitted recently too.

You submitted a new post!

I can get you a list if you're desperate

I know what you did last Summer

Hey, so about the "Notifications" behaviour
(I'm using English spelling in an attempt to curry favour with you...)

All kidding aside:
1-Let's say I commented on SCL Program #323
2-Then C:Amie replies to me
3-Then I replied to C:Amie
Situation 3, it seems to occur I still get a notification but I'm not sure if it's because:
1-I uploaded SCL Program 323
or
2-I replied to a comment I initially replied to

If that makes sense?
So I'm not sure if it should notify if I reply to myself or my own download?
If that's the coded behavior, I won't argue, I just was curious?

I'm always grateful for all you do, I promise

The intent in the code was that it's not supposed to fire if you reply to yourself

Understood. Let me wait for the behavior to recur. And I’ll give you an exact context to work on.
