Fancy features

Wheels · 03-01-2005, 12:21 PM

Oh... I've just realised that on the front page you can select to 'minimise' forum sections that aren't of interest to you... so if you're not interestedin the 'everything else' section you can hide the breakdown of it's contents... or you can hide the 'igloo statistics'... and so you only see the information you want...

To do this there is a button on the right hand side of the blue bar at the top of each section... just click it to hide and click again to show it.

What other fancy features have people found?

Oh come on, there must be more...

Do people know about the "New Posts" button on the top bar there? It shows you the latest posts in all forums

you can subscribe to posts of intrest to you....i think you get notified by email or something then when they are replied to....dunno though, havn't done it yet

Wheels · 03-01-2005, 12:32 PM

Yeah I think you can chose to receive the emails or not...

Also the FAQ section at the top is quite good... this is the forum FAQ rather than the site FAQ... tells you how to use many of the features

Oh and I like how the board goes black and white when you click 'log out'

i like how when you check the currently active users, you can see what part of the forum people are viewing

in your pm box you can dl the old pms as text/other files - so they wont disappear into cyberspace if you need to clear your inbox
