LadyLou Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 this is more out of curiosity, since I've managed to do what I needed anyway: I was updating the thread with the Planet glossary and needed to link to a post in the general chat. I remember I could do that through the proper option in (iirc) the upper right corner of the post, but now I can only see the report button there, has the layout changed? As I said, I managed to link to the post anyway, I was just wondering if it's really changed or I merely can't find it and it's still under my nose Link to post Share on other sites

Apparently I can't do that anymore(?) Are you able to open the original post through the quote? The only clickable thing of a quote is the poster's profile now ETA: again, it isn't a can'tlivewithoutit kind of thing, it was just a tool I found useful when searching sources to link in the Glossary, for example yesterday I was searching pics related to the Armani black T-shirt and in a post I found there was a quote and the quoted post was the one I truly wanted to link in the glossary... but I couldn't get to the original post (well, of course I could search in the previous pages, and that's why the lack of this option isn't vital, just makes my lazy self weep a little) Link to post Share on other sites

Does it not exist anymore? that's exactly what I was thinking about, but I can't see it anymore this is what I see now no arrow and as I said nothing clickable other than the name of the poster I'll try in another browser, otherwise I have no idea... EDIT: YES, it's a browser thing Firefox doesn't show the arrow while Chrome does. I feel betrayed by my fave browser sorry for all the fuss, and thank you for your patience EDIT 2: by the way, in Chrome I also see the option I was talking about to share/link a post while in Firefox there is... "report post" and nothing else Link to post Share on other sites
