OG Website Feature Wish List

I would love to have access to a list of, or link to, our prior conversations when I visit your /users/ page.

What doesnā€™t suit you on activity page?

You can even display latest posts or created topicsā€¦

Those are my activities. I want to see our exchanges. I remember a conversation with you but not details. How do I find it? Currently I have to do an advanced search for ā€œ@LemonadeJoe in:privateā€.

I know, current private message system is chaoticā€¦ People with lot of PM struggle to find particular message there. Iā€™m well aware of thatā€¦

Fulltext search will be improved in next update, there will be simple checkboxes so you wonā€™t need to write on keyboard your ā€œhackā€ā€¦ But that is great tip for others, btw!

Is the Pin Topic feature new? What determines whether the toggle appears?

With any new PM for the subject I write my name and recipients name then itā€™s easy to find later with just a scroll down.

Yes based on your example I have begun to do that as well.
I note that older exchanges are not accessible through the messages-list and must be located via search or in-message links

No, there are no plans for this support.

Our goal is to have great experience using OG on mobile browser without need for any extra app.

Plus I only know of tpt*lk because of their extremely annoying spam signature they leave everywhere and Iā€™m very happy that does not exist here.

Understood. That is because people use the free version instead of the paid.

Thank you for keeping OG as clean as you do. Now back to my hobbit hole. You can return back to your regularly scheduled programming.

Unsure if mentioned before, a way to follow a user (as in they pop up on your screen first if they either make a new topic and/or reply to a topic. Sort of like fuckbook>following>see first.

Would it be possible to show the correspondent name in the message listing rather than the author of the most recent message.
I hate wading through twenty ā€œHi!ā€ messages to find the one I am looking for.

Please upgrade to a recent version of Discourse. The version used on OG is more than 3 years old.

The actual reason for my request besides stability and security is the feature to ignore users which came last year.

Yes, that is on the plan very soon!

That is a great tipā€¦ To search for PMs with particular member can now use:

@LemonadeJoe in:personal-direct

Or fill in the field ā€œPosted byā€ and check ā€œIn my messagesā€ in Advanced search:
