I see the problem, unfortunately I don't think there is a way of altering the search system within vBulletin....

I read somewhere that the tag system may be altered so that synonyms can be added and will automatically merge to the one that is selected.... Until then, shall I set the number of tags to a higher number? What would you suggest?
I still haven't played much with the new vBulletin Search so I didn't/don't know if it is more robust... I should do that.

Interesting feature for the tags, that could prove helpful.

There are pros and cons to increasing the number of tags in Tag Cloud (to something still less than all tags). Maybe just leave it for now unless you have another reason to change it. I'm pondering further questions about tags here so there is another conversation yet to have. :)

it should quote the message which its under onyour reply to thread page.
Thanks Mr. Darcy. Do you mean "Quote" or "Quote +"? If I understand you correctly, that is how the "Quote" button works. But I see next to it a "Quote +" button - when I press it nothing happens.

Now that I examine again I see the "Quote +" tool tip which says "Multi-Quote This Message" - so if you are replying to a message which already contains a quote, sounds like it will nest double quotes (or more) in your reply. Does it work for you?

SJ,i dunno why,but sometimes new posts in threads arent coming up as such...they are just normal case on the section page,and dont highlight the boxes on the left on the main page.its happened a few times.

Cool. Jamie, it's for quoting several messages at the same time. Click the icon on each post you want to reply to, then click on a quote button. Each post you've marked with the "quote+" will be quoted in your reply.

Ohhhhh. THANK YOU Leaford! I've had this happen before, must have been from playing with that button. I didn't make the connection at all - thought it was a javascript problem. :oops:

I don't know if I'm imagining this but I think I'm missing posts because they are being marked as read without me going to the page. / Not all new posts are being shown as unread.

Is it just me being absent minded and forgetting where I've been?

no Kate,it happens with me too.i mentioned it ages ago...its still happening tho...very annoying.

I don't like the new format of placing all the profile info on the left side.
Because my nickname is long, NerdyCinderella, my posts are squashed.
Of course my old suggestion of expanding the borders to the limit would handle that.

Smokey,
I appreciate your work. Don't take my critique personally - just my 2 cents.
Thanks again.
