I'm on basschat so I'm familiar with the system.

I think the search function is all we have here.

The Good trader list used to be updated all the time to give a positive count of the number of good feedback reports, but the person doing it doesn't come here much anymore. It was fine while it was being updated, but as time goes on it is less and less accurate.

I just tried the advanced search on myself and couldn't find a way of filtering it to just sales feedback.

It was a pretty major task given how much traffic there is on the Classifieds. Unfortunately (very unfortunately) Mr Jooky had a number of other life challenges to deal with, so couldn't maintain it.

We need another volunteer to take that on ...

@fretmeister - kinda, but with a way to filter by username. So just before I line the pockets of @straight_up_geezer_honest_mate for that tasty-looking '54 goldtop, I can check what others said about him. Is there any way to do that in the existing thread?

For comparison, here is the feedback thread for a randomly-selected user on basschat. Since that's under its own URL, it can easily be linked to from a sig.

Just ctrl+F in your browser on the first page and search for the username

Well I never knew that!

Granted, and he did a cracking job.

You need to find an IT student who can put it on his CV!!

What you can do is search google for [site:http://thefretboard.co.uk/discussion/247 ] and then the username. That'll show all mentions of that name in the thread.

e.g. https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=site:http://thefretboard.co.uk/discussion/247+stickyfiddle&oq=site:http://thefretboard.co.uk/discussion/247+stickyfiddle&aqs=chrome..69i57j69i58.6975j0j7&sourceid=chrome&es_sm=93&ie=UTF-8

Not sure if this has been mentioned before, or even if this is the right place. But on the mobile version of the site there is no search bar, meaning one has to go to the non-mobile version to search. Also (possibly intentionally) speakers corner isn't in the mobile version of the site, well it is. But the link to it is gone.

DesVegas · February 2015

I have someone on ignore yet i get a notification when he has commented on one of my discussions .. can this be changed?

robwright · February 2015

I've lost the FX classifieds button on mobile version. Careless of me but any ideas?

Bidley · March 2015

Is there any way of having a time next to every post, rather than just the ones posted that day (if that makes sense)?

This has bugged me for a while. It's a bit more crucial for the classifieds, as you have to wait 48 hours between bumps. If my post had a time on it I'd know when I can bump!

ChrisMusic · March 2015

@Bidley ~ if you hover over the date stamp on the post it should show you the full date and time. That works in most, or all, views on the forum AFAIK. I don't know if that works in the mobile version. Or whether the 48 hr rule is exact 48 hr or just every other day max, some clarification may be in order for that ?

Bidley · March 2015

Holy shit @ChrisMusic thanks for that.

I'm sure the 48hr rule has a bit of leeway here and there, but as I work shifts I post at all sorts of times, therefore it's likely I could post an ad at 11pm and want to bump it at 5am two days later! But no matter.

Wow. Had been annoying me too.

There's a weird bug going on where people's profile pics (or "avatars" if you prefer to call them that!) have all been swapped! Hahahahahaha it's weird. I noticed it when going to Notifications using the site in my phone browser. @GavHaus you stole my pic

I have no idea whose I ended up with but upon investigation everyone's is switched but if you go to the user's profile their correct pic is there!! How weird!

Edit: happening for me in threads as well now...

Is there any way to make clicking the 'LOL' or "wisdom"s in your profile link back to the posts which recieved the lol? I've seen other forums do it.

Some people have *thousands* of frets ... clicking on them would create a very long list of posts.

It's been suggested before, but isn't something that we're thinking of doing.

xmrchi · March 2015

On the mobile version when you back up to the previous page it takes you to the top, is there any way of stopping this,

Rox · April 2015

Just had this message pop up (literally in a pop up box like the notifications) - I thought I'd post it in case it's important. It looks important - big fonts and everything

Not a complaint just a heads up. When I get a notification of a message in Gmail then reply in Gmail it bounces back and the intended recipient doesn't get a message. Might be useful for people to know.

Yeah, the email is just a notification.

Deadman · May 2015

Just a thank you from me for Nick and Tony for sorting out my account after a break.
Cheers gents.

ChrisMusic · May 2015

Welcome back @Deadman

Hey there @wayneirie, there is a link in the notification eMail (for PMs at least), and the sending address gives you a clue >>> noreply@ thefretboard.co.uk ~ which is commonly used for notification only purposes across the net. HTH

wayneirie · May 2015

@chrismusic Yeah I've figured it out now mate, I was just putting it out there in case anyone else had made the same bone headed mistake.

"Your Comment will appear after it has been approved"

??

Left wondering if I inadvertently typo'd count without the "o" and it was flagged, or something. Can't see the post though.

This a new thing?

Is there a way of having the search results show chronologically instead of whatever order it is now?

Say for example you're searching the classifieds for a popular pedal you get a very long list of threads to go though when really it's the recent ones that'd be most relevant.

Hi not_the_dj,

Have you discovered the advanced search functions?

Oooo, thanks a lot, that looks perfect.

hugbot · May 2015

Just floating an idea: ever consider merging "theory" and "technique"? or maybe even bundling both into "making music". I feel like the music making forums would get a bit more traffic if they weren't as compartmentalised.

Howdy, Stranger!
