CleanCutRogue October 23, 2007 - 1:08pm | Sounds simple enough. You want that on every forum topic and every comment individually everywhere on the site? Anyone have an idea on what the graphic would look like? 3. We wear sungoggles during the day. Not because the sun affects our

Corjay (not verified) October 23, 2007 - 1:16pm | Annn...envelope...? Seems standard. Maybe an envelope with an arrow pointing away from it also works. |
CleanCutRogue October 23, 2007 - 1:27pm | well... yeah... but please there's already an envelope icon for sending a message to the author of that post. Maybe an arrow showing "forwarding" to another user might work. I'll see what I can find online or make something. Annn...envelope...? Seems standard.

CleanCutRogue October 23, 2007 - 1:29pm | Or maybe I can just make that already-existing envelope include a link to the post where you clicked the icon. People can just change who the message is "To" if they want? 3. We wear sungoggles during the day. Not because the sun affects our

Corjay (not verified) October 23, 2007 - 1:32pm | I think that's what he was asking. I don't remember seeing the envelope there a few minutes ago, but then I'm not very observant. Or maybe I can just make that already-existing envelope include a link to the post where you clicked the icon. People can just change who the message is "To" if they want? |
CleanCutRogue October 23, 2007 - 1:38pm | you probably looked at one of your own posts, which lack that envelope. I should probably change that if we're to use this button for more general link forwarding. One also needs to be on the documents though... 3. We wear sungoggles during the day.

w00t (not verified) October 23, 2007 - 1:48pm | shouldn't the "click to send a pm to the author" embed the link for the forum topic your viewing when you clicked the open envelope? |
CleanCutRogue October 23, 2007 - 4:22pm | I think it should. Actually, this should be the solution to this issue. If I make the "click to send a pm to the author" turn into a "click to send a pm to the author or another user about this post" then make it embed a link (like we do with the "discuss" button on documents), then it will work just fine. If you want to send it to someone other than the author of the post, you just change who it's to. shouldn't the "click to send a pm to the author" embed the link for the forum topic your viewing when you clicked the open envelope? Is that ok for everyone? 3. We wear sungoggles during the day. Not because the sun affects our

CleanCutRogue November 15, 2007 - 11:13pm | I think this issue is closed now - right? If you want to send a link to someone, you click on the "Write to Author" thingie and you can change who it's to. It now embeds a link to the post or comment in question. 3. We wear sungoggles during the day. Not because the sun affects our
