Re: userpage
Sadly that's there due to the way the system of marking threads containing CA posts work. There is no add-on to create the mark, just manipulation of the built in "ratings" system.Originally Posted by woad&fangs
The rating system uses icons to show the overall rating of a thread on the forum's main page. These icons appear to the right of the thread title in its containing forum. The default is a set of stars, although this can be edited to provide custom symbols.
As you may have realized, the custom symbol for the "Terrible" rank is a CA icon. Staff can, due to this being the icon, use the ratings system to easily mark threads containing CA posts. The function is disabled for members on threads to prevent them from creating a CA symbol where it wouldn't be appropriate.
Edit: Gah! It seems that Tosa beat me to it - I spend much too long devising and revising my posts.
I'm sorry to be the critical one to point this out, but there are a couple of small errors/bugs/missing text entries with the current set-up.
The most noticeable of these is when one places a shout upon their/another user's page. It instead provides the phrase "Could not find phrase 'shout_posted'.".
Another more minor problem is the text in the box to the bottom left hand corner of the screen. It seems to be grammatically incorrect stating "Last Updated[date here]". Rather than being in the current format, "Last Updated: [date here]" would in my opinion be a more accurate way of writing it.
Although this is fairly trivial, on a user's drop down menu, which is activated by clicking on one's user name in a thread, the button to access the user's user page in my opinion isn't in keeping with the text for the rest of the links. Although this may sound fairly trivial, might I suggest that the text "View My Userpage" is replaced with "View Userpage". I feel that this keeps uniformity with the text above it ("View Public Profile").
Again, my apologies for my critical nature.
