oh... Fred?

yo fred... howzit...

not sure if this is best/preferred way to make a suggestion - but maybe if others think its a good idea?

any chance we could get a 'tool bar' (nav-link bar) at the bottom of the screen, like the one at the top (once logged-in) - as per so:

located just above(or below) these 2 nav-links:
« Previous Thread | Next Thread »


or if not the entire setup - just a 'new posts' link

reason: when one is browsing in 'linear mode' - when get to the bottom of the thread, ya have to scroll all the way back up to clik on 'new posts' (tho eye realize the 'back to top' button is there, methinks it would make the GUI more functional if could just clik on the link-menu thats at the top, once reaching the bottom of the thread/sub-thread)

any comments - or +1's - for this?

A "new posts" link at the bottom would be nice, but I don't know if the forum software supports it. I usually just hit the "Home" button on my keyboard.

Ummm ... that's what I said here and you told me to go home

Personally, I wish there was a second "New Posts" link at the bottom of the thread ... which is where you end up after reading a new post. It would simplify navigation.

My wife must have put 100,000 miles of "finger-swipes" on her iPad before I told her she could just double-tap the top of the Safari bar and it would take her "home" to the top. You should have seen the look on her face.

While we're in "suggestion mode" somebody should fix vBulletin's cut-and-paste "feature". When you paste an article in ... all the formatting gets mangled - everything from text size, formatting & paragraph breaks. I just made a Fekete post & it was a Herculean effort to make the thing legible.

It is difficult. My workaround is to first paste into a plain text editor like Kedit (or Notepad in windoze), make paragraph breaks and other fixes if necessary, then copy/paste into the vBulletin editor.

Warning: this may not work if you use a formatted word processor like MS Word, but only a non-formatted plain text editor.

Your have it right, Shiny it works perfectly in MS Word.
When you paste into a plain text editor, all the formatting codes drop away. One more copy and paste from the text editor into iTulip brings in clean text.
