It is nice that an alert can be sent via quicknote or e-mail when a new post is made to a board to which you have subscribed. It would be very helpful, if that qn alert also contained a link that would take you right back to that board. The e-mail contains a URL to go directly to the page. Couldn't that same URL be sent to the qn as a link?

Sounds good if it's technically possible.

Chris, off topic, but I miss you. I haven't been on MSN forever. Hugs and hope your world is perfect! happy Turkey Day to one of my favorite turkeys!

Okay, it comes as a url that I can copy and paste into a new browser window. Anyway it can be clickable right from the qn area? I know, I'm never happy, am I? **Smiles!

We strip pretty much all html from quicknotes before display to prevent people from sending links and such. That would be difficult to work around, which is a good thing.

Ahh, but you are the amazing computer god and can surely find a work around. :) And I have seen you in two recent board posts, so I know you are hiding in invisible land. Show yourself and talk to me in qn. **SMIILES!. Still cool to have the link though I suppose.
Hugs,
Lis

Chris, Did I see a direct link just now to my subscribed to topic? Very cool!!!!! LOVE IT!!!!!!

Another thought. Could there be a place where each user could save their frequently visited links, a my favorites kind of thing. So from the combo box where you have topics with new posts, most frequently posted to, etc, there could be a "My Favorites" option that would list all of the topics subscribed to by that user. Just a thought; I obviously have no idea what would be involved to make such a feature happen, but think on it and let us know!

Not Chris, but we'll take it. The other idea may be doable. Who knows.

Oh I like that idea. having a list of the topics that you visit instead of having to search for them.
