bookmarks
is there anyway to update our personal bookmarks to change from old forum to new?
bookmarks still work for the old ones, what happens to replies to those?
and of course I just converted to firefox ...

glitches
I just found that I am not getting notices of replies in either my e-mail or the post listing
(http://EvC Forum: Information -->EvC Forum: Information)
when I went to one of my threads -- What is the evolutionary advantage to religion?
(http://EvC Forum: What would we think if Percy..... -->EvC Forum: What would we think if Percy.....)
there were many replies that I should have been notified of but haven't.
also -- could you increase the contrast on the buttons at the end of the posts? perhaps red text? they are hard to read for my old myopic (color deprived?) eyes.

Re: glitches
still no notice in either e-mail or the list (and I have not written on the thread since they were posted)
I will try resetting my preferences.
no word on the button contrast? black on the pale blue buttons would be better, but red would draw the eye, and that would be good for the {reply} button.

this came up on another thread:
http://EvC Forum: What happened at talk origins? -->EvC Forum: What happened at talk origins?
but as a side note: it seems that whenever the posts on a topic jump in numbers that there is an off-topic issue going on ... might help admins to watch for it?
I wonder if {percy could implement \ admins could administer} a lock on off-topic posts to prevent replies (or to tunnel them to a new topic, say in coffeehouse, or short topics, so that it is open for comments). maybe the posts could be "closed" similar to the closing of whole threads?
just a thought.

Re: suggestion
thanks
By the way, Google does a pretty good job of searching EvC Forum
yeah, it is kind of spooky to do a google on a topic and find your own post in the list ...
I'm curious about how well the "unread messages" indicator that appears in the left hand column of forum and thread lists is working for people.
it's not. or it isn't operating in real-time anyway: I usually look at the number of my last post compared to the total to see if there is activity, and I often find the activity is a reply.
same with e-mail so far (no notices since the new version of the board).

Re: suggestion
no, not the forum page but my own post list page
http://EvC Forum: Information -->EvC Forum: Information
it did not show some posts as being replies to my post (mostly on the probability thread} but when I went to the latest post it was a reply.
the numbers of posts were correct just the "yes" was missing.

Re: suggestion
I just went through all my old posts as it seems that the e-mail notification button was turned off when the board was converted -- this may have something to do with the e-mail?
would it be possible to allow sorting of the individual indexes? or have one that is only that persons original posts? (which can provide insight to others way of thinking?)

Re: suggestion
Percy -
check
EvC Forum: Information
and the listing for {What is the evolutionary advantage to religion?}
it lists my last post as #142 and the total for the thread as 141 ...
still no e-mail notices.

Re: Email Notification
no e-mail yet, though I have received several from other sources.
on the individual index lists could the "yes" be linked to the response? this would mean (a) going directly to the response instead of your post and then the response (yeah, but there could be multiple ... ) and (b) that the color would change when read (signal for future reference on ones you don't need to answer)?

Re: suggestion
129 is gone from the topic index.
but the #142 post doesn't show up there either: that could be why it sees 141.
