Favourites

[TosaInu]

Hello,

A new option is added today: favourites.

You can bookmark users, topics and individual posts. Each post has a link, you've probably already found that one, to add a whole thread you need to use the threadtools menu in your navigation bar and to add a user to your favourites you need to go to his/her profile.

You can see all your favourites in the usercp, that's where you can manage and delete them too.

Nice idea.

Hello Tosa,
Great idea, thankyou for implementing.

However, may I suggest that the placement could be moved so it takes up a single line line. It feels a little strange browsing threads with the bar at twice it's normal size. Don't do it if it's too much trouble though - it's only a minor problem.

Sorry if it's too much trouble, thanks!

Maybe the use of an icon for this feature could address Omanes' concen?

perfect!

Maybe the use of an icon for this feature could address Omanes' concen?Yep, that would work fine sapi. Excellent idea.

Any ideas for an icon?

Maybe an icon of a heart? On second no, a heart is too... lovely. In any case something in that direction, but please not too cheery or warm.

An icon used for favourites is a star. A bookmark perhaps?
There's always the ALT making it informative.

I'm not too sure which icon would work the best Tosa. I was, however, thinking of this default skin icon scaled down to the same size as the report post button and then placed next to it.

I'm not sure if it would work well though.

It's open to changes Omanes Alexandrapolites. Each skin can have its own icon(s) too.

The add to favorites text is replaced by just an icon for now. The Remove Post From Favorites is still in text, that should be an icon different from the add to favorites.

How about + and - signs in the icons? + to add, - to remove. Logical and eloquent. It would probably require minor tweaking of existing icons.
