Feature Possibility?
So I had an idea for message boards. I think it would be handy to have an area, like say a quick links or something, where you could see where people had quoted you. Say I post on a thread, someone quotes me with a response, I come back the next day & the thing is 10 pages long. I could give two shits about the 10 pages, but if someone was replying to me then I could see that & respond.
Does that make sense? Kind of like when you click on the link of "All posts made by you", only it was "You being Quoted". I figure it would have to be a chunk of code in the actual "Quote" button simply because you can type anyone's name in the [quote= thing. I haven't seen this feature on any message boards, so maybe it would be harder than I think, but it seems like a handy idea. Maybe it already exists in a mod form? Whatcho think?

Re: Feature Possibility?
Makes a lot of sense. Not sure I can do in with this message board though (phpbb doesn't do anything special with quotes - just treats them as text).
I added "Who Quoted Me' to the top menu that attempts to do this, but not sure how effective it is.

Re: Feature Possibility?
That's not bad. Would having it search the phrase "Minute wrote:" to be more accurate to quotes?

Sort of - I changed it to the code used to generate that text and it worked much better. Thanks!

Need to work a way to click into untitled posts on that - a lot of the old ones have no subject. But yeah, fun stuff.

Re: Feature Possibility?
And damn there's a lot of posts here. I'm thinking I should give Pagana the title she asked for, maybe for the board's 10th anniversary or something.

Thanks for the memories, Dd.
I read about the first handful of pages. Just a couple quick thoughts:
1. Pagana absolutely deserves a custom title. Don't be tight with the titles, Dd brah!
2. Love for Harlowe. She would be my first pick to roast Charlie Sheen.

Sometimes when I'm feeling really down I'll go through HoF and read the old rants, but then it just makes me miss Brell. Lots of memories in there.Harlowe wrote:Hall of Flame threads = good times.
