Love Home Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Yes, Please bring back the mouse-over feature. It really saves time. Also the board is painfully slow now. Hopefully that is just temporary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyMommy Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 I really miss the hover feature too. It makes the boards so much easier to use! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farrar Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 If we can't get the hover back, is there a way to speed up the preview thingy? What's the previewy thing? I have super missed the hover. I had no idea I was using it so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dana Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 What's the previewy thing? I have super missed the hover. I had no idea I was using it so much. On the forum list, to the right of the thread title is a pull down arrow that shows the start of the first post. I think it's so if you're browsing on a mobile device, you get the hover functionality. It may speed up once the server gets moving faster, but intially it was as slow as opening the page (if it even loaded). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juniper Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Now that the forum is moving a bit faster I see that the drop down arrow gives you the first AND last post. This is really neat. It allows you to see how much a thread has rabbit trailed. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happypamama Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 While I can see that the drop-down arrow is helpful, I too miss the hover feature! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura Corin Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 I miss the hover too. The down arrow still takes time to load - I used to scan down the list quickly, choosing to open the threads I was interested in or could help with.

Forget-Me-Not Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Adding mine to the chorus of voices asking for the return of the hover! The preview is not nearly so efficient! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldberry Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Miss the hover! When I visited other forums, I was always wishing all forums had the hover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALB Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Yes, please, please, please bring it back! I actually didn't even get on the forum for the last couple days because I didn't feel like bothering with it when I can't preview the threads. It really makes a world of difference!

DragonFaerie Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Yes, please, please, please bring it back!

lcelmer Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 I too, find myself uninterested in weeding through so much new content without the hover feature. Pretty pretty please bring it back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grover Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 My DH got tired of me moaning and wrote a little fix for me - it only works in Chrome at the moment, but he said if you want him to he can look at doing it for firefox too. It's not as good as the old hover mode, but it's better than nothing. If you download https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B2_Hn_5YNavcNkpnNmRtcWVheFU and then click the wrench on the right hand side of the chrome screen, open tools, then extensions, and drag the file into there - enable it and you'll have a kind of hover feature back.

VaKim Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Love this! I kept forgetting that I had opened the preview, and then accidently x-ing off the page after reading it (I always open in a new window). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nan in Mass Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 The hover feature helps a lot! Thank you very much. I especially like the little button on the bottom that allows you to go directly to the new posts. It is rather nice seeing both the original post and another one, also. (I am getting two of the original, but I assume that is fairly easy to fix and I'd much rather have double than none.) Thank you!

Snow Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Wait, does this mean I can't preview from my iPad now? I don't see the little icon there any more so now I have to click on the post to see it?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I am getting two of the original, but I assume that is fairly easy to fix and I'd much rather have double than none.) It looks like that on threads that I haven't clicked on/read before, I get two of the original post & the most recent post. However, for threads I've already read (seen some posts of), I get the original post, the first NEW post (that I haven't read yet), and the most recent post (which is sometimes the same as first new). Pretty neat stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
