Off-Topic Re: Forum Theme and Features
#20: May 03, 2015, 09:41:19 AM

I've also put in a request for more refined member searches--search byname, or certain profile fields--like MLCer type--which means that field will be added to the profile. Again, I don't know the difficulty or possibility of this, but it's a big one on my list.


I second/third the request for this!  I find it hard to find a particular person's posts. Also, New Replies to My Posts brings up every single thread I've posted on in last x months - a lot - it would be very handy to have Last Replies to Last 6 - 10 posts only, if that's technically possible.

Would love to be able to find people by type of MLC-er but also by length of stand. 

And some kind of 'bookmark' faculty, to mark favourite threads/posters of the moment would be absolutely awesome.

How about an area where any progress on getting medical recognition for the condition could be flagged, along with news artless of relevance. I'd love to get involved in campaigning for wider understanding and would be prepared to lobby all sorts of bodies/people in the UK to this end. Also by joining organisations like Depression Alliance and Mind, and starting specific discussion threads to highlight MLC as contrasted to 'ordinary' depression. 

A volunteer list maybe? 

Thanks, RCR, for the wonderful site and its continual improvement.

Affair discovered; three moves out and three attempts at return during 2012, culminating in "I'm not coming back" statement. Then DIY separation agreement - Feb 14 - which I wouldn't sign. He moved in with OW in 10/14 and I heard little more. I instigated D in 2016.  He's still living in rental with OW and her D but the cracks are starting to appear.

I'm not sure what forum software you're on, but most have a way of making several choices of your own themes and then you could do them all in your color scheme

in the upper right hand corner of the forum is a box with colors you can choose your color any time you want give it a try

If you look at the word     Logout   then go all the way to the far right of that their are little boxes that have color in them.
Click on one of the boxes besides the current color that you have selected.

Found them! Thanks! Unfortunately, the light parts still show up pretty bright on the eyes, but for now, I found one that glows a little less intense than that green. Would love to see a darker option.

The best answer I can come up with for now is don't log out.

I will see if I can figure anything else out.

I'm on my ipad so it just randomly signs me out, but usually there's a way to save it so when you're logged out, it's on the default look and when you sign in, it goes to what you picked.

What color do you like?

I just changed it but I have a feeling I changed it for the entire forum(blue).

Lol whoops! Personally, I like the grey one. It seems to be the most toned down.

Thank you for trying to fix it up for me!
