Feature Requests

Since Mark Seems in a giving mood-

1. What about on hte search page allowing people to visit multiple pages. As it currently is, I cannot visit more than page one, when sometimes I want to visit page 12. Or perhaps the search page should allow you to immediately "go to new post" or something such as that.

2. "Quick Thread" You can make a thread in each forum section without entering that section. Threads can be made from the main board UBB page.

3. This is personal- I can't seem to empty my mail or even see any mail older than 4 months. Could you please delete any of my mail made pre July or August 2001... Thank you

use "Show results as posts". it will give you links to the exact messages that it finds

possible but probably too spam friendly

I'm not sure about "show as posts" because I've never tried it, but will it take longer or possibly not show the posts you want- because the reason I want to see the other pages is to not see where I posted but who posted after I did so.

Okay, I understand #2, I wish it wasn't so, but it is true.

About #3, For some reason "show all posts from beginning" didn't work, and I don't want my box to be overflowing- so could you please delete. Thank you.

No, I just looked. The Show as posts isn't waht I want- I want to see if other people posted in the threads- not see If I posted there...

do you mean privates messages when you're talking about mail?

to delete all your private messages (http://apolyton.net/forums/private.php) just click on the checkbox in the first row(next to the date/time sent header) and the click on the delete button on the bottom of the messages list.

That would be good- but I want to keep my 5-10 most recent ones because they are quite important- other than that, the others can go- but the system won't show me all my PM's

Put those 5 PMs into your notepad, and then clear your PMs.
