#1815 posted by necros on 2014/08/06 03:41:47 hey cool, the [New #] links disappear when you hit back!
#1816 posted by metlslime on 2014/08/06 04:35:39 They shouldn't unless the page gets refreshed. Normally when you hit back a cached version gets displayed.
#1817 posted by JneeraZ on 2014/08/06 14:50:41 They disappear for me too. Not sure what the reason is but I like it.

 A Request #1820 posted by Blitz on 2014/08/15 01:52:41 I would love to get the
"News | Forum | People | FAQ | Links | Account | Log out"
at the bottom of the page as well. It kinda sucks to have to scroll all the way back up a long thread to navigate back to the forums.
Apologies if someone has asked for this before and it's been shot down.

#1824 posted by metlslime on 2014/08/15 05:29:55 alt + left arrow is "back" in most browsers (or apple + left arrow on macintosh)
#1825 posted by metlslime on 2014/08/15 05:30:44 ...which doesn't mean i won't do it, just, this is just a request for a hyperlink to go back, right?
#1826 posted by Lunaran on 2014/08/15 12:06:10 backspace also goes back!
#1827 posted by Lunaran on 2014/08/15 12:08:46 Although after posting, you're placed at the bottom of a forum thread after a page you probably don't want to back up over (the one with the post you just made typed out in the box).
#1828 posted by Spirit on 2014/08/15 12:23:13 wait, not all people use mouse side buttons for back/forward?
#1829 posted by JneeraZ on 2014/08/15 13:14:22 Seriously, what else are those side buttons for?
For playing Diablo 3, as Jay Wilson said in 2008!
#1831 posted by Lunaran on 2014/08/15 17:19:06 Oh, yeah, those too. but backspace when it's touchpad time.
#1832 posted by Lunaran on 2014/08/15 17:19:19 basically what we're all saying is you have options
Having The Buttons At The Bottom #1833 posted by ijed on 2014/08/15 19:34:13 Would help when on other devices, not PC.
#1834 posted by - on 2014/08/16 00:05:48 wait, not all people use mouse side buttons for back/forward?
I specifically have those keys set to do nothing in web browsers because I use them as push to talk keys in VOIP programs, and it's annoying as fuck to keep changing webpage while I'm talking to someone.
But that's a bit off topic.
Just because a shortcut exists doesn't mean you should not put links where they will be most useful. When I get to the bottom of the page is when I am likely to want links to other parts of the site. I don't think it would make the site's design look awful either.
#1835 posted by JneeraZ on 2014/08/16 00:15:14 It's "a" shortcut ... there's, like, 8.
Metl #1836 posted by Blitz on 2014/08/16 21:05:24 No, not just a request for a link back. Most forums have some kind of way to navigate around the site at the bottom of the page since you're generally reading top to bottom. It's a usability thing.
Again, not a *huge* deal but it would be a nice thing to have if it's not a huge undertaking to implement it.
#1837 posted by Hipshot on 2014/08/18 14:58:22 Where can I read about the forum codes used here? Like how to do text urls, like I see everyone but me do.
Hipshot #1838 posted by nitin on 2014/08/18 14:59:52
Searching How do I find stuff on this forum? Also there's no pm system or a way to look back at your own posts and stuff?
