question relating to updating the forum and changing things.

How come when you go to post a reply you can scroll through to look at people's past posts but the signature from the bottom of that person's post disappears?

i was posting to someone and wanted to double check but had to go back then re-paste my post and carry on..?

I may have misunderstood but here goes.

If you are searching for posts of a particular person, the search engine will give you a list of them in an abridged version. If you click on one of those then you will get the whole post including the signature. It is not a new idea to confuse you, it has always been like that.

I don't think i explained what i meant clear enough?

When replying to a post, underneath the text box (i can see it right now as im typing lol) I can see all the previous comments starting with yours catherine then in order down to the OP. I can see all the posts but the posters signature doesn't come up like it does when you're simply reading through all the comments before you reply?

It's simple enough for me to go back to have a quick look but it sometimes helps when your trying to advise someone can you can see a previous HBA1c result or medications etc?

I think I understand.
Click the expand link at the very top of all the posts.
Hows that?

do you mean 'expand view'? it just makes it wider?

I'm clicking everything here :lol:

It's no big deal really it just made me wonder thats all?

Below where you are replying it says. TOPIC REVIEW. AVATARS. To the right of that it says "expand view" and that will increase the number of posts you see underneath, all of them. If you then look where you clicked," expand view" it now says, "collapse view" and that will shorten the list of posts.

when you replying to a thread, they scroll through box underneath the reply box always misses the signitures out, they also miss out the avatar/profile box to the right of your post..

It's common practice for all forums to do this when replying, but you only ever notice it if you look back to see sig/avatar infomation otherwise it goes unnoticed
