Now that your board is taking off, would it be possible to put an up arrow on it? I'm a very lazy person.....LOL

I was wondering about that. How about both? Top and Bottom.

The placement is an absolutely great idea. It's a unique use for auto titles.
For some reason, I'm not seeing the little arrows in bwayne's posts. Is anyone else running into that? |

They need to make a post after they have been enabled for them to show.

Yeah, I think those arrows are neat where they are. I've never seen them in that area before.

Well done Laffin. I was waiting for someone to ask that and everyone let me down until now. LOL
I'll do a little tutorial for it later today. OK? |

People have seen the jump arrows that I placed in the poster detail area on this board and asked how it was done. In a nutshell, they are just linked images placed in the auto-title and a named anchor placed in the Custom Footer.
To begin, insert the following line in your Custom (or Global) Footer: Code: Select all <a name="bottom"></a>
Code: Select all <div style="width: 100px;">
So, you go and look at your board and don't see them. Don't worry, this is normal. Once a Member makes a post, the auto-title will show in all their posts. Just make a test post and see. Obviously you are free to change the images and if you need a bit of help with styling them to suit your board, please ask. Remember when asking that we will probably need to see them in action to be able to give good advice. A link always helps. |

OK, I gave this a try and it worked, sort of.
Under my avatar and my support account avatar, my up/down images show but under anyone else that posts - nothing. The only change I made to your code was with the image - as you can see, I used a thumbs up and down. So, what did I do wrong? Edited to remove images (see below). |

You're fine. Just wait for the others to post and they will appear.
I notice that your screenshots show IP addresses. I think I should remove them for security reasons. I'll make a copy first though. |

OK, thanks. Will do.

I have mine at my board set to where only admins can see the IPs.

You just have to remember that if you take a screen shot that includes the area where the IP address is shown, it will show up on the screen shot, regardless of your board's privacy settings. I forgot about that when I posted my screen shot here.

Yes, I understand that. I was trying to let Wendy know that they don't have to be available to the public. But good point about screen shots.....so easy to forget that sort of thing.
