Question for HM

Is it possible to make an adjustment to the mobile UI so that you can read the entire thread titles? They get cut off after a certain amount of characters. If possible would be cool. xoxo

I tried manually replacing the < and > with [ and ] but that didn't do the trick.  I could spend some more time on it, but I think it would eventually take some jquery/javascript magic on submit to see if the submitted content string contained class="twitter-tweet" and then make the appropriate substitutions for phpBB.

Follow up. Not sure how easy one would be vs. the other. While it would be great to see the entire thread title in the forum view, more importantly would be that once you click on an individual thread, you can see the entire thread title there.

Looks like in forum view there is a 47 character limit to title display, and in individual thread view there is a 32 character limit.

#1 is done. #2 is a PITA with the way the mobile interface is currently written.

That was a nice surprise the other day.

Who decided to switch from 50 posts/page to 40? Doesn't affect anything, just noticed a subtle change and it was after all the maintenance last week.

Could you hook up an easy ignore bob button? Like I don't want to ignore him all of the time. I don't even want to ignore him MOST of the time. But on the days when he's off his meds I'd like the option of not having to wade through his bullshit until he's back on his meds. It's tough to read the board sometimes with his repetitive 'school spirit' injected in 14 consecutive posts in every thread. Finding the friend/foe option is quite difficult and can often take an imbecilic, provincial, bumpkin Midwesterner like me much longer than I really care to search for. TIA.
