Improved Search Facility
Improved searching of threads has just been released. Searches of single forums should now be fairly fast, a few seconds at most. Searches of multiple forums should be about 50% faster.
I'll be rebuilding the search database over the next hour, so searches may appear to be slow during this period.

no e-mail yet, though I have received several from other sources.
Email notification was broken and should now be working. The bug was masked for me because it the code follows a different course for a privileged user. I wonder why no one else noticed. Thanks for finding this!

Change to "Reply To" Link Position and Presentation
You'll notice that the link and information about the message that a message is a reply to has moved from beneath the message text to the upper right of the message header.
I tried to find the best format, but comments and suggestions are very welcome.

Re: Change to "Reply To" Link Position and Presentation
Hi Boss. Although it may just be trying to get used to a change, I find that the This message is a reply to and Replies to this message in the same place makes it easy to track what's going on at a glance. Especially with long messages when you'd have to scroll back up to see who's doing what to whom.

Re: Change to "Reply To" Link Position and Presentation
I agree with Quetzal. I liked it better at the bottom. It seems more logical to have it with the "replies to this message".

Re: Change to "Reply To" Link Position and Presentation
The problem with it at the bottom was that on a long reply you often had to scroll down to find out who the reply was from before the post made sense.

No, I think that would be a great solution. Percy doesn't have anything else to do.

Re: Change to "Reply To" Link Position and Presentation
my only quibble is that it would seem more appropriate on the left under the {{message X of Y}} line, like a memo address
and top and bottom would also help when you get to the end of a long message and want to re-read the original ...
