Housekeeping - New button now available
« on: Thursday 22 January 15 16:43 GMT (UK) »
Hello all you lovely chatters here on London & Middlesex.

I am pleased to tell you that there is now a new button available to you and your topics on the "look-up request" boards, not just this one.

When a topic is completed, all you have to do is click the 'topic completed' button and a small tick will appear beside the topic on the forum.

This makes the moderators job a lot easier, as we can scan down the boards and spot those topics that need moving.

It also means that other chatters can chose to ignore those with a tick as no further information is required.

If however, you click the button by mistake, you can go back into the topic and there should be a 'Mark Topic Not Completed' button in its place.

The button is also available to you after the current 24 hours limit youhave for editing out typos.

I have created a test topic with a green tick here on London & Middlesex so you can what the forum will look like.

So please take some time to review your old topics, see if there are any that no longer require attention and mark then accordingly.

Topics can be viewed in alphabetical order of poster here

Any problems, let me know.

Thank you for the information.

I am afraid I can't see the "topic completed" button

It will only appear on the topics you have started, will be on at the very bottom of the topic and looks like this

Will it appear on our "historic" topics, dawn ... or just on ones we create hereafter?
