How are you viewing the PMs? By one-at-a-time or in conversation mode?

I've fixed this locally but I've noticed another bug in the process.

The board position boxes don't appear if there's only one board in the category, even if there are other categories and places to move to; it just figures that one board in a category has nowhere to go.

And fixed in r1570.

I have a draft post saved from a topic (though the fact the draft exists is a result of the QR/drafts bug), but the topic was since moved.

The code validates that it's still in the same board and same topic - but the topic doesn't exist in that board any more, even though it does certainly still exist.

It's not a huge deal except for the fact it doesn't link the title back to the topic and it says that editing it will cause it to open a new topic, even though it actually won't because it will tie it back to the topic properly.

I actually have the sidebar at the bottom because I don't have my browser at full size (it would look a bit silly in other sites to run at 1920 wide)

As far as ordering, there isn't a UI for it, just as there isn't a UI to determine whether a board is a blog or not. However, in the boards table there is the sort_method and sort_override columns, sort_method defaults to last_post (order by last post in a topic) with the direction being set as naturally descending.

The override part allows four options: ascending/descending and natural/forced. Natural means that it defaults to whichever you've set of asc/desc, but forced means that it only allows that order and sort method.

Sorting method can be based on subject (alphabetically), starter, last poster (both by user name IIRC alphabetically), number of replies, number of views, and first post and last post. Blogging, typically, would use first post rather than last post.

Well, it was annoying me that we had about a 1/3 of the area tied up with an almost entirely empty pair of table cells, which were legacy and needed to be moved somewhere.

Actually, as far as the view vs reply count, I figured that the view count was only of modest importance and thus fitted in small writing next to extra information rather than being as prominent as at the foot of the post (i.e. where you read the post then press reply to it or to see the comments) Can try moving it if you want, no big deal.

In that case, check the board's configuration and check you set the default ordering correctly ;)

Yeah, IE supports that but others don't >_<

I think we'll have to deal with this on a case by case basis in the JS, really, and just look for cases where we manually push ;xml onto the URL from JS where we might not otherwise.

Apart from the fact that it's out of date and never really worked properly.

We do not wish to add any of those out of the box. Relying on third parties for core features is actually a really bad idea, though we've looked at making them plugins in the past.
