I only noticed these two features fairly recently ...

1. Not forcing image downloads. If you go to


User Control Panel -> Board preferences -> Edit display options -> Display images within posts


and select No, then attached images are reported as a clickable link (as in the Phorum system) rather than being downloaded and displayed..


2. Links to quoted posts (which may be just partially quoted, and maybe on a different page).


If someone has selected the Reply with Quote option, as I've done here, the small up-arrow that's added -- here just after "ianr wrote:" -- is actually a link to the full post that's been quoted.


[8/3/23 Editing the Subject field (adding "[mk.2]") to see what effect, if any .


And it seems to be retained, as I can see, but only by going into Edit mode, when it appears changed in the Subject field. I guess that the field will be propagated to any post made by anyone responding to this specific post, but won't be of much other use. Effectively it's functioning as something like an internal private tag which denotes not much more than in which branch of a tree of posted responses any particular post has been made -- which should be pretty evident anyway, from its content. [Now relabelling Subject addendum to mk.3]

    • I am sure what the new plan is but who knows how the postal service will work from here onwards 
    • My experience is that my local letter box does have week-day-ly collections - but I think very early in the morning, not at the old 'around 5.00pm' times. There are several daily collections from the box outside the Forest Hill Road sub-post office. I don't think the 'Monday' tab is now ever changed. Mail collections from boxes have got nothing to do with the service we (don't) get from the Peckham Delivery Office. Your Wednesday 12th posting would probably only have been collected on Thursday 13th, if it was posted after 9.00am. If it was being delivered in East Dulwich (where the Peckham DO does come into play) then getting it by the following Tuesday is probably par for the course.
    • Are there no daily collections from post boxes any more? On Wednesday Feb 12 I posted a Valentine's Card in the postbox which is about 20 metres from our house to make sure it arrived by Feb 14 (yes I know I could've put it thru letterbox but that's not as romantic is it). After I posted it I noticed the little metal thingy said "Monday" but I thought this must be a mistake and had not been changed. However, Valentine's Day came and went and no card arrived. In fact it arrived on the following Tuesday, Feb 18 so I'm guessing the Monday collection metal thingy was correct. Has it ever been announced officially that there are no longer daily collections from letterboxes? I remember a time, not even that long ago, when the red postman pat van would pull up at least twice a day, every weekday.    
    • My lovely tuxedo cat, Rexy, has been missing since Wednesday which is very out of character. Rodwell Road area, SE22. He is a rescue cat so really quite timid with people he doesn’t know. If you spot him, could you please contact me? Many thanks. He is chipped and neutered.  Photos attached.
