Minimizing Child Boards
« on: September 01, 2010, 01:05:09 AM »
Is there any way to minimize child boards? You can minimize the boards on the main forum page, but not the child boards. Is there any way to give them that option?

why? they take up so little space.

or do you mean at the top when you're viewing a board?

Show child boards on every page inside boards, not just the first.
can help. hides them on all pages except for the first one.

I already have that unchecked.

No, on my small monitor, they take up more room.

I also find it kind of annoying we've got so many child boards..

Why does it matter? It's 7 extra lines of text on the main forum. Just ignore them if they bother you that much.

yeah, just think of them as separate boards that just  fall under the category of others.
and hey, they're smaller too! :)

The annoyance is that I constantly have to scroll down to see the actual topics on the board. I don't have a mouse, nor do I possess the extra income to afford one, so scrolling down with my lappy's touch pad is a pain in the ass.

See that just cuts out a bunch of the top topics.

Is it too much of a inconvenience to do it? Because if you just say "No. We won't do it." I'll shut up.

um.. to do what? install the mod?
it isn't possible to minimize them as of now. after we update RAF to 2.0 (when it is out of beta), we probably will be able to.

Ah. Now that I didn't know. If it's not possible, then there's no point in complaining.

Thanks for trying. :)
