      Been kind of off lately... A month ago had issues with chat here - mostly with my Firefox; now came after this while with my Opera 36: chat looks good here.
      A confusion though -- could not see a "Log in" button when first came now - not logged; the "Log in to reply" one was in place in a thread, yet I'm accustomed to having one somewhere at the top of the page though... Perhaps there is some under the "menu" button on the left there - didn't check...

        And what about having some markings on the threads (on the lists in boards) as to when the latest comment there was? I'm kinda used to it.
        Threads seem to order according to latest comments in them, but there's no sign when. Myself personally could use such to navigate faster...

        Then, sometimes I see a thread here and there, starting with a bold dot in the title line. Sometimes I see a kind of an arrow in a box there - similar to that one clickable leading to the latest comment, but the one in question is not clickable. What do those mean? The bold dot seems to appear random😕

        Oh, and I can't seem to see a "preview" button here. Is there any?
        Wanted to check if a smilie exists or not...

          @joshl The login button is on the top right of the page.

            On the right of the topic/section you can see the last comment.

            It means that the topic was moved from another forum/section.

            When you start a reply, you already see the preview on the right.

              Wishes for the future ... There is not enough button "spoiler", when adding a comment, to hide large pictures and texts.

              Ум освещает путь воле, а воля повелевает действиями.

                The login button is on the top right of the page.

                Half an hour ago, I logged with my Firefox, saw one at the left when entered a board. No top right though, AWAIR😐

                  Come again?
                  I meant entering the board, there is this list of the threads. They might seem - or be - ordered by the last reply, but I did not seem to see any apparent showing of its time/date (as it used to be on the old(er) forums).

                  Well, I do not. 😑

                    And another question - a little one: can we quote partially?
                    I might try checking it next time: highlighting some text then hitting "Quote"😏

                      @joshl looks to me like your screen resolution places you in “mobile” layout instead of tablet/desktop. Nothing really we can do about it 😞

                          Leo mentioned a bug. Has it been addressed?

                              What is this white plus sign in a big red circle on my bottom right when I compose something? Like right now?
                              Hovering produces pointing a link in my browser with the topic's name and number in it then some numerical after a slash ending with a hashtag.
                              Is it for calling an ambulance or something?

                                @joshl It allows you to minimize the composer window. You can have more than one Composer opened simultaneously and, if you wish, switch between them using these buttons. Finally, if you have any chats open they would pop up there as icons with avatars of your interlocutor, next to that big red circle, too.
