O.K. members last visit and eMail members can wait.
eMailing members can be done using other functionality that we have identified today and we have more urgent matters that need addressing.
We are pretty sold on nabble but we have 2 issues which are really bothering us.
For a members only forum
When adding a member for authorisation, you click on a button saying 'add member'.
Simple enough, however, it has no 'search' facility to enable you to identify the member you want.
You have type in the member name and it will look for the name and add them.
Problem is, as I found with Dave, I managed to add a 'turner' instead of 'turner-uk'
also a 'Jan' instead of 'Jan- Absolute'
It's VERY easy to do and could cause security issues.
Is there anyway of tightening this up a bit please?
Also there are various pages that are missing back links amd breadcrumbs that make site navigation awkward.
When clicking the grey flag next to my user name at the top of the message boards I am presented with a page that shows flagged messages.
It is very difficult to work out how to switch this off to return to my previous view. Clicking on the now red flag does not turn it back to grey and send me back to my previous view and there are no other obvious links to use that allow me to get back to my previous view of the messages. I ended up using my browsers back button a dozen times.
Similar issues have been noticed by fireman grumpy in the admin section. Navigation is missing breadcrumbs for some of the pages.
I have not identified which yet but will get back to you on this.
