baboon Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Is this permanent or can we expect to see it again? I find it more useful on occasion than giving a poster a 'Like' via a direct reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boomerangutang Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Forum should add dislike button. Even better would be 4 buttons: great! /// agree /// disagree /// yuk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steven100 Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 I have ' reacted ' in place of the old ' liked ' is now shown .. ? Maybe a ' I need another drink ' button would be handy .... ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 The like button will be back soon. It and a few other things are being worked on. Give techdoctor a chance to get it worked out. Sorry but the dislike button will never happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluesofa Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 I don't know if the posts part of the upgrade is complete yet? Assuming it is, something that has disappeared at the moment is the Post ID number that references each post uniquely within a thread. I found it useful, sometimes to be able to quote it in a reply, or when I was reading a thread, to use it to remember where I was in that thread if I went to look at something else that it referred to.

wpcoe Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Apparently these forum "upgrades" are a tech version of Whack-A-Mole. Fix one thing and another thing breaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KittenKong Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 The "like" button has apparently been replaced with several options (thanks, happy, sad, confused) none of which actually mean "like". Is this progress? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluesofa Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 5 hours ago, Caps said: clicking on the heart is "Like" While I realised that hovering over those 'buttony-things' before clicking will show what they mean, I take KittenKong's point that if you weren't certain what they are for, some members might be reluctant to click a heart icon, thinking it might just express 'love'. Perhaps it's the software vendor's attempt to get more love into the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
