Online/offline and main ' toolbar'

Hi MIF

Is there a way for you to put one online/offline status somewhere around the name because it can be annoying to scroll all the way down if a post is too long,

For the same reasons is there a way to put the ' toolbar' with the forum home, math is fun and new posts buttons on the bottom as well as on the top,

Doesn't it show offline/online below your name here?

Having the toolbar at the bottom is a good idea, but am not sure if the software supports it, I will have a look.

Re: Online/offline and main ' toolbar'

hi MathsIsFun,

Have a look at

http://www.mathisfunforum.com/viewtopic … 87#p204387

post #7 is an example of a long post (sorry,  I always was a talkative fellow)

On my screen the online / offline notification is at the bottom of the post.  Is it possible to have it at the top?

No worries.

I spent most of my life explaining things, so maybe I've begun to get good at it.

Re: Online/offline and main ' toolbar'

OK ... both are achievable. What does everyone think?

* online/offline status directly below Avatar?
* forum links (Forum Home, etc) at bottom as well as top?

hi MathsIsFun,

I think both suggestions are worth having if it's not too much trouble.  Thanks.
