This problem only seems to happen to me occasionally, sometimes I'll go to the next page of a thread and it will load fine, other times it will just give me a blank page.

The standard themes shows threads with new posts in bold, but the blue them unfortunately does not. See image... Yup. Instead of bolding the title, the Soft Blue theme has those little balloons at the front of each topic that are blue if there is new content and silver if there’s not. dB 1 Quote ==> David Bryce Music • Funky Young Monks <== Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that help? Cheers, Mike. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about the no balloon thing. I suspect it means new topic with no responses. Re: your other question I have not had the time to research a solution yet. Sorry… I just did though. FWIW, researching a solution entails me going to Invisions’s help forum and either starting a new thread (as I did in the above link) or searching to try and find an existing one. I imagine anyone can join their forum and ask questions, though… dB Quote ==> David Bryce Music • Funky Young Monks <== Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mate stubb Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 To me, the blue scheme seems to behave like this: No balloon = nothing unread, you have not replied to this thread. White balloon with check mark = nothing unread, you have previously replied to this thread. Blue balloon = unread messages. Check mark or no depends on previous reply. 2 Quote Moe --- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnotherScott Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 On 2/25/2022 at 1:48 PM, AnotherScott said: I miss that the search doesn't include a filter for author anymore. That made it simpler to find something I'd posted in the past, or something where I remember who it was who said it. Similarly, the page that shows my own posts now only goes back a short while. And I used to use the "Print Thread" option to search a thread for my own posts (by simply using the browser's own Find function on that screen), but even though the search function lets you search a single thread, it doesn't include poster's names in that search. And google searches of this forum aren't working right. So my oft-used ability to reference things I've written in the past is kind of obliterated at the moment, almost no matter which angle I come at it from. I don't know if there's any way to address it... or maybe there's some facility I missed? I found something... If you hover (but don't click!) over a poster's name as it appears to the left of the post, there will be a pop-up with an option to "Find Content." This allows me to see many more of my recent posts than I can see when simply viewing my profile (i.e. by clicking where I said not to click, or from the top right of the window)... in fact it lets me see all my posts. It doesn't seem to be searchable (or downloadable for offline search), unfortunately. But it's something, at least I can quickly get to stuff I've written recently. 1 Quote Maybe this is the best place for a shameless plug!

Page top and bottom have a photo, but the background of the page proper is just white. By the way, FWIW I still find the thumbs-up confusing, and still think there's nothing to lose by just also making it the first choice on hover. HOWEVER...I notice that's only true on desktop. On phone, the vertical cascade would actually be MORE confusing with a second thumbs-up right above the first. Not sure what that adds up to... 1 Quote Now out!

No, or I would have done it. 😀 I can place it above the description, but it looks goofy. Same with centering it. The text forum name is a different type of field, and is required as is. I spent hours messing with this yesterday. 😬 The banner shows in the main forum listing page as well, which bums me out that none of the other forums have banners.
