Re: Ideas? Suggestions?

Could we fix the signature display problem?  worked well for a few days and now cuts info off, both in firefox or ie.  some examples:

Signature clipped\

 

clipping signature

 

Also there isn't a way to get back (easily) to the main Discussion Forums view.  The path at the top of the screen looses the Discussion Forums link as soon as you click on a forum.

 

Example, first is where we start, then second is where we end up.  Note missing link to Discussion Forums.

 

 

Thanks

Re: Ideas? Suggestions?

It would nice to be able to set a filter, say on My Profile on "Recent Messages" listing to only be MAS 500 messages.

 

I do not need to see the MAS 90/200 traffic.

Hi MikeH
 
Thanks for the suggestions.  :smileyhappy:
 
We set the signature height to where you should be able to see 3 full lines of text. Please note from the Guidelines, "Signatures in the Member Profile will be limited to text only with a maximum of 250 characters in no more than 3 horizontal lines of text." Let us know if you still see a problem.
 
We'll take a look at the other issue with the "bread crumbs" as we call them, and see if we can come up with a solution.

Hi jnoll, 
 
The New Threads feature is for the whole community only. However, you can use an advanced search to do that. Set results per page to 250. Then choose the category you are interested in, maybe Sage MAS 500 Discussion Forum. Then click Search. The last step is to look at the date column on the right in the results, and click on Date/Time to order them from newest to oldest.
 
Let me know if you need any further assistance!

Re: Ideas? Suggestions?

If you'd like to keep it at 3 lines of text, that's fine.  then I suggest that the text box used for folks to enter their signature might be shrunk so it doesn't look like there is room for thousands of letters.  Also place the basic signature rules in the text that clicking on the question mark gives you.

 

As you know, if the software lets you enter it, users are going to fill it all up and then call support asking why their novel in the memo field isn't getting saved completely.:smileywink:

 

Thanks for the quick feedback.

Re: Ideas? Suggestions?

We have a couple of clients who were going to use the SageTalk Forum to post MAS500 related available jobs.  But they'd prefer to use the new MAS500 Community Forum instead for better visibility.  Any suggestions what area this should be posted in?

 

Thanks!

Thanks for the input!   I will pass that along to the rest of the moderation team to be discussed.  Keep the feedback coming, and we will continue to make the boards as enjoyable as possible.  :smileyhappy:

Hello Carolyn, 

 

Thanks for the suggestion.  We actually have been discussing this lately, and I will be sure to update once we decide what avenue will work best for the Sage MAS boards.  

 

Thanks!

Re: Ideas? Suggestions?

How about fixing the "scrolling" issue: When you use the <Next Thread> button to scroll through threads, every time you leave a new post in a thread, the <Next Thread> button seems to take you back to the beginning of the list.  It's a pain when there are a lot of threads active.
