John (Meatloaf) is the head programmer now, so you should ask him on his board:

Great idea, BTW.

[Mod Squad 3]

Bob,

Is there any plan for the future to be able to remove multiple posts at one time? For example, if stock ABCD
takes 2 pages to discuss cheese and "lol" every other post...

That's one hundred posts to remove one by one.........

thanks.

[IH Dan (Retired)]

Could you please fix this?

When I look at a board in the regular mode I see this at the top right.



but when I hit the MANAGE link I get this view showing the Next 50 and Previous 50 links reversed.

[ergo sum]

Hey you know the way the active board screen reads:
Board Name Last Post Author Total Posts Latest Post

Is there a way you could activate the stock symbol on that screen?

[IH Geek [Meatloaf]]

Not that I've noticed.

[BUBBA]

Yep, it actually logged me off earlier and I can't even remember the last time that happened.

[Susie924]

Intermittent slowness here also.

[BUBBA]

IHUB having any problems this morning or is it on my end?

[PegnVA]

I am SURE you did!

[Susie924]

lmao

[extelecom]

I would like to see the ignore feature with an option that would not allow an ignored poster to post or reply to a post.

[Ruellit]

I'd like to see a board, or even a spot(link) on the Home page that would take you to a board or post that contained all the features of Ihub, past & new.

[IH Geek [Meatloaf]]

D'oh! Never mind, I see you added that to the project queue about a week ago.

[IH Geek [Meatloaf]]

No, I don't like it for aesthetic reasons. The servers could care less. Gmail does something similar. There's a red item in your menu when there's something new. I don't know if it goes away once you've looked at whatever is new, but it does go away eventually.

[Susie924]

I think most people aren't big on flashy things which is why it could work. People will click on it if they know it will go away once they do!

Unless you mean you aren't big on flashy things because it does something to the innards of IHUB?

What do you think? I like this (toned down a bit - I'm not big on flashing things on the screen). We do a pretty haphazard job of announcing new features I think. We'd get more bang for the development buck if there was some centralized place people could go and see a list of what's new.

[Churak]

you're also Barry Bonds???

[Susie924]

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'M A STEROIDZAL GAZELLE!!!

[Churak]

SHAKERZZZ...is dat you?

[Susie924]

I know this has been brought up on the Q&A board but since Bobby says this is the place, I am going to bring it up again.

Will IHUB be implementing the "tool" where we can see what someone's previous alias was? There seems to be a real increase in people changing their names and unless the person is on your membermarked list, you have no clue that it is a change or just someone you never spoke to before.

[IH Geek [Meatloaf]]

Address this to Bob or Matt. Bob is being the gateway to user initiated changes at the moment.

[Susie924]

[Churak]

can't you put something in the DATE FIELD like 3/26/2000?

[IH Geek [Meatloaf]]

I try not to date posts. And yes, 12:00AM is exactly like midnight ;)

All that means is the date field is empty.

[Churak]

lol...well, how about giving it a date like 3/26/2000...and when the heck is 12:00 AM is that like midnight?

[IH Geek [Meatloaf]]

This is board number 5, from back in the days when Matt was a mere infant. He didn't have enough money from running his paper route to purchase a date for the new board - just a time.

[Churak]

How come this board doesn't have a DATE CREATED but only a time?

[Susie924]

Great idea getting this board going again Bob.

Can I be the first to check the status on suggestions that have already been made?

1) Will the home page background color ever be changeable like the favorites page is?

2) Will there come a time when you can click on a person and it will show a list of boards that they have posted on...a la RB?

[Bob Zumbrunnen]

Posting a message here so the system won't thumb its nose at me when I ask it to let me be the Moderator.

[EquitiesTrader2]

Please need good charts!

[THE MATADOR]

LIVE INTRADAY CHAT!!!!!

[MiMiC]

How come when i ignore a member, there post still show an unread in the Favorites?? That is until i view a post one higher than the ignored member which clears the list again.

[Tackler]

Just noticed (not sure how long it's been there but there have been other improvements lately):

If you enter your word to search for and hit go without pulling down to "Public Msgs" then on the lower right of the next page will be a hotlink entitled "Full Text Search for -your word-". Click on it and your there without having to use the pulldown.

Recheck for your colors request it may have improved,
goto "Tools" then "My Interface".

[TigerCat]

I'd like to second this request - it would be nice to have the search box default to a public message search.

Got another suggestion too - how about being able to customize more of the interface colors like the colors of links, text color (apart from the menu) and other title bars (like on the favorites page where it currently has the red/green/blue board/people/links title bars)

[wasatch]

It would be nice not to have to go to quotes when you want to do a full text search, if I am missing somthing could you let me know....thanks wasatch

[dropdeadfred]

fix the delete folder button please

Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01a8'

Object required: ''

/boards/del_folder.asp, line 6

[lil_mini_ditka]

Will do. Here's a suggestion for you:

Display the Mailbox instructions or a big link for instructions somewhere on the mailbox page. I have to dig deep to figure out how to use "an integral part of the iHub experience."

The mailbox is going to be a really useful feature for me Being able to save public and private messages is huge as I have all this crap cut and pasted into notepad and cluttering my desktop.

[Mattu]

In the future, swing by the Q&A board for stuff like this. It's the active board for this type of questions/suggestions.

#board-504

[lil_mini_ditka]

I'm so retarded.

[lil_mini_ditka]

Oh man...my bad...I have been wanting to do that for ages...thanks...

[lil_mini_ditka]

That's a decent idea.

[Mattu]

At the top of every message and to the right of each one in your mailbox, there is an option to 'File Msg'

Click that and you can place them in folders.

[lil_mini_ditka]

Suggestion:

I would love to have the ability to archive PMs that I want to hold onto. I know I can leave a PM in my PM box for as long as I want, but I like to see a (0) by my mailbox on the top of my screen.

As an alternative to the ability to archie, I would accept having my message count return to zero once a message has been read without that message being deleted. This seems doable without too much extra code.

What are the chances?

[Tackler]

I would like to be able to set the timezone for my time in my view. I am guessing this would involve major change to the database and thus difficult to change though. Never hurts to ask though.

[Tackler]

I would like to be able to customize the pull down menu or the search function up at the top right. I generally use the public messages search and it would be nice if I could have that first on the list under my profile.

[spencer]

Do Bob and Matt read this board? Looks fairly dead.

[RabbitDragon]

In the future I would like to see abiltity to vote on messages. Strong Agree 5 to 0 strong disagree. Somehow show the total votes and avg score when viewing messages in a board. Would help find good posts quickly and reduce number of me too posts. Keep up the good work. - RD

[tagthatstock]

how about expanding the email system,, so we can group people together and reach beyond this site. tia

[XenaLives]

We have PaulA and Paula posting on Zeev's board. Aren't those two handles too close? Could PaulA be Paul_A or something and I would suggesst not permiting a case unique handle in the future.

[Mattu]

Yo, homeboy, you out there?
