Up Topic Gosu / Gosu Exchange / Forum problem

This is not related to Gosu itself, it's about the forum.

I don't know if this is only because of my browser (Safari) or because I haven't understood how the forums work yet. The forums display unread threads/subforums in yellow. The thing is that when I read a thread it doesn't get marked as read ---it does with time, though.

So, how is it? I've tryed to click on the subject of each message to mark it as read but it doesn't work neither :(

Another thing that I can't manage to do is to quote someone. I click on the quote button down someone's message but my reply doesn't appear with a quotation.

Am I missing something? Should I use another browser to access to these forums?

No, it's no browser forum.

I think the thing about the read/unread topics is that you stay in the same forum-session, and within a session it doesn't seem to change anything.

When you first go to the forum, you go to:
/forum.pl
But from there, you are constantly linked to:
/forum_show.pl

So I think the read/unread topics are only checked when you open /forum.pl.

And yeah, the quote button does nothing.. that's kinda silly.
You can do it yourself by typing '>' in front of text,

>like this


but still, just silly. :D

The quote thing indeed looks like a bug. Should update the software, I guess :)

I'm used to the way the sessions work from another mwforum installation. I still think it's weird because it breaks when you link directly to topics, as the libgosu.org front page does. Seems there is no official addon to change it yet though. Wee, Perl hacking!
