Katie H Posted March 22, 2019 #1 Share Posted March 22, 2019 Previously, on each post under the member's name, it said "Member Since (join date)". Now it just says "Members" which has no meaning. I think this may have begun after site maintenance earlier this week. Will that feature be returning? Also, is it possible that there will be a return of the feature that noted "Thread Starter" (or something like that) on each post of the OP? I really miss that.

Rare Turtles06 Posted March 22, 2019 #3 Share Posted March 22, 2019 The "Members" thing seems really silly. Not only a plural for a single person, but obviously we are all members, or we couldn't be posting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare broberts Posted March 23, 2019 #4 Share Posted March 23, 2019 On a desktop hover the mouse cursor over an avatar. The popup will include a join date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes it a little easier when I'm on the desktop. I was hoping by posting I might get a reply from Jenn about whether the join date feature would be returned and also about if the thread starter feature we had on the old site would be added. Are you out there, Jenn? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare broberts Posted March 23, 2019 #6 Share Posted March 23, 2019 (edited) @Katie H, If you want someone to get a notification type the @ and the first few letters of their username. For Jenn, type @cc. This will drop/pop a user list. Click/tap the username, this is important. It will appear in your post white letters on a blue background as I've done with your username to start this post.

CC Help Jenn Posted March 25, 2019 #7 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Thanks for pointing this out! I will see about getting the info put back to our preferences. It should be join date, posts, and location under your avatar. Also, re: thread starter designation. I have that on my "wish list" which doesn't mean it will happen - just that I have noted members would like it to - and we look at that when asking the developers to work on new features.

Then again it may not. I just tried a test with my username and haven't received a notice. It used to put an entry in one's Notification List that said something like "User xxxx mentioned you in ...". Ah well, just make sure you quote a user's post. That will definitely notify them unless they have turned off notifications. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think she was referring to the OP icon that designates the Original Poster (thread starter). That shows up on tapatalk, but not on the web version.

Katie H Posted March 27, 2019 Author #25 Share Posted March 27, 2019 1 minute ago, broberts said: Is this thread not about "join dates om posts"? Yes, it is. But the join date has been added back since the thread was started - it was missing for a few days. I also asked about getting the "thread starter" that was on the old boards back. Someone above posted an example of it being on the tapatalk app as "OP". Jenn has said that getting that feature back on the website is on her wish list, but no promises that it will return. Sorry for the confusion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
