Re: Topics

Sounds like a plan. Good luck!

BTW for the rest of us onlookers this is called user-testing, and sometimes it's still going after you've gone live.

Re: Topics

Hi Jake,

 

I think I understand your request (you don't need my permission Smiley Happy) )

 

Let me make sure I'm understanding what you're referring to...

Lets say an initial thread was called "Nik is awesome", then you reply and make the "Subject" to your reply as "Nik is ridiculous" . So both titles exist within the thread. Is that right?

& the problem is that changing the title interferes with search? Just trying to clarify.

Re: Lost Posts

Hi Nik,

Yes exactly, that's what I'd like to find out, so I have changed the subject of this post to 'Lost Posts' and we will see what happens when I try to find either subject.

Regards, Jake

 

Re: Lost Posts

Let me know how it goes.

Re: Topics

Hi Nik,

Sorry to all the posters reading this - trying to sort out a technical 'bug'.

Bit complicated Nik but yep, just as I imagined:

'Lost Posts' does not exist as a subject, even though it clearly exists (see the previous posts above this).

'Topics' still exists, but has been changed by the poster (me) so it appears if someone changes the subject line, it can't be found by the search engine.

I have changed the subject back to 'Topics', but it would be better in my opinion if IT could block the subject line from being altered by a poster, once the thread is started, do you agree?

Thanks,

Regards, Jake

Re: Topics

I think your suggetion of blocking edits to it once it's started would probably be simplest. Good work! K

Hi Nik,

I like it! - 'DJ' - I don't charge much for online debugging!

Who do I send the bill to?............. (Lol!):smileysurprised:

Re: Topics

I am putting my hands up as I am pretty sure I have edited the subject line when I have responded to a topic.
Sorry about that.. Usually it was additional to the subject.
Maybe I should just start a new topic...but at the time it made sense to add work or study into the subject line..

Hi Alessandra,

Well with time off for 'good behaviour' and a further reduction for 'pleading  guilty' you should be out well before Christmas (Lol!)
