What happened to the "likes"?

They’re gone, matt .

Yeah.

So’s that list in the main index.

Replaced with Thanks, thumbs up.

Which do you like better? (I don’t think there is any way to transfer the existing Hearts to Thumbs Up)

There’s a Thumbs up now to “like” a post, but the unfortunate thing is that upon liking the post, rather then launching a javascript message to display this, it switches pages to tell you you liked the post and then brings you back.

IF this could be a javascript or pop-up, rather then a page change, that would be great. If not, doesn’t matter much, it’s still functional and takes you out and back rather quickly.

Along with the “Most liked” thread list on the main page.

I had a problem connecting probably 30 minutes ago…something splode?

I’d rather have the hearts. And my archived “brownie points”. :laughing:

Yeah, I should have a local installation for testing. It’s not that hard to set up.

But…

I tried to run the Love and the Thanks at the same time. Didn’t work, obviously.

Ok, but getting the hearts back means getting the list of most liked posts back in the index… Is that ok too?

I’m fine with that. **

I prefer the hearts. I browse the forum from the “unread posts” link, not the home page.

I personally don’t mind either to be honest. The index is a page I rarely user, except for specific needs, and the functionality is one I use mostly to let someone know either that I was appreciative of his help/response, that I was agreeing with the person or that I had a good laugh at whatever was inside the post(if that was the intent of course)

I browse from the “New posts” so that I can see all topics that have had new activity and that I can tell which one I’ve viewed also. I occasionaly use some of the other quick links for specific reasons.

I also agree that the page change to tell me I just liked a post is a bit annoying.

Yeah on second thought I prefer the hearts, the page change annoys me lol.

Ok, 3 prefer hearts 0 prefer thumbs up.

I’m going to switch back to hearts… going… going…

On a related note, it would be nice if pictures showed up as a popup, or in a new window.

WHAT HAPPENED TO MY POINTS?!?!? :smiley:

Pictures? What pictures? You mean in-line images? Like this???

You want these to show up in a popup? You don’t want to see them in-line with the rest of the post?

Are you ok? :mrgreen:

No. When I click on the image so that my tired old eyes can see what is in the photo.

For some reason I am used to hitting escape to get the picture to go away. Now I have to get used to hitting the back arrow.

Oh, when you click on the image to see it full size, you’d prefer that to be a popup. Ok, I think I get it now. Sorry. I’ll keep my eyes open for that setting if it exists.

Thanks. I didn’t do a very good job of explaining myself. It is a side effect of trying to get work done and coming here while “SOLIDWORKS IS BUSY”.

Here you go Matt
