Show only OP

Is it possible to stop threads created by people on your ignore list from showing in the 'Latest' link from the parent section? Instead showing the latest thread that you give a **** about?

additional feature request- can we have a badge to highlight posts by the op in-thread, for when you do want to see everyone else's posts.

Have this on another forum, it's very handy. OP has "thread starter" under their name on the left.

can we also get a go to first unread on the main forum page rather than click on the post and then clicking go to first unread

This is quite handy for the build logs section. Bit weird how the top and bottom checkboxes don't sync and act as independent toggles, but that's just tidying up

If you click on the envelope icon next to the thread title it takes you to the latest unread post

I think I commented this on the initial XF1 migration and linked to this resource, but it was never actioned.

It's a free add on that does just that, it's very useful. Please add it! It's especially important on a site like this that doesn't allow avatars next to names, which makes it very difficult to easily identify members when reading through a thread without consciously checking each name.

It looks rubbish though. Get a better UI designer.

I second this, the initial XF rollout looked like *****, after uproar the basics were fixed and the blue colour scheme is still great, but there's still so many little details that look awful and unpolished.

The entire reply box button menu could be replaced with sharp icon font images, and there's some terrible drop shadow glow on the post reply button.

Please hire a professional like Russ from PixelExit to consult and fix the style. Keeping the same great colour scheme, but polishing all the little details that currently really let the site down.

This forum belongs to a massive company, it's seems incredibly cheap that they can't be bothered to fork out for a professional designer to consult and improve the UI on their very active community.
