Tom / Wumpus. Can the internal loading system be tweaked? Or is configurable by the user? It’s loading up blocks of 20 posts as you scroll up/down. IMO, it would be better a bigger quantity, like 50 posts.

That’s well above my paygrade, but I’m guessing there’s a reason it’s set at 20. It’s the sort of thing @wumpus or @stusser might be able to address.

There is another option called User Card Badge. It shows None when I tried to edit it. I’m not sure what exactly that is.

The badge system is disabled right now. If it were not disabled, you’d be allowed to select one of the badges that had been awarded to you to be displayed on your user card. A lot of the default Discourse features are disabled here right now, per request from Tom (and others).

Ah, got it, thanks!

When I click on a link within a thread (see for example in here Hey, how can I get Discourse to do X? ), how do I return to the original post without scrolling up?

Back on your browser.

Do you mean the original post in the linked thread? You can click the start date on top of the vertical navigation bar on the right side of the thread.

Or use the keyboard shortcut - ‘u’, which I just tried successfully.

You can also use the timeline bar, if you get taken to the bottom of a thread you have not finised reading, there will be a little blue ‘back’ box on the timeline to take you to your last unread thread.

Note, it’s not actually in that pic, that’s just a reference so you know what the timeline bar is. :)

Neither backspace nor U works. Backspace brings me to previous page (which discourse treats as e.g. this thread or the Hardware subforum) and U just moved me up by one reply. Neither brings me to the originating post.

Just the browser back button should work.

So… how I can put some quote tags? I don’t see a button for it.

In the reply editor, click the chat button at the top let. That will quote the post you are replying to.

Or highlight any text in a post, a quote button will float up. click that.

Oh, I didn’t notice that feature. Cool. You will live one more day Wumpus!!

The best thing is, as you compose, you can continue to highlight multiple text and have multiple quotes. Useful when trying to debate against many people.

It doesn’t. I can only get it do so very occasionally. Only applies to links that link within a thread.

Is there a quick method to mark a thread completely read?

Perhaps the fastest is going into the thread and pressing End key to jump to last post.

You can also mute threads you aren’t interested in (I did this for sports) so they don’t show up in Latest, New, or send any notifications.

You can mute entire forums too-- I muted P&R. Very satisfying.

So the Qt3 logo up top still doesn’t connect to the front page?
