Checkbox Next To Thread Titles

[pert]

@alto777

it takes the space where once there was the symbol that marked threads I had written to

Are you talking about the old forum software?

@alto777

Can’t someone automate the addition of SOLVED to the title? So clicking a button would just do that instead of checking the box.

I thought we were interested in less visual clutter. A small checkbox provides the information in a lot less space. Now, it is true that the meaning of the checkbox is not quite so obvious, but this information is most important to the forum regulars, and they will all surely learn its meaning quickly as time goes on. For newcomers, once they open the forum thread, the "solved" state is communicated much more clearly (example here).

Still missing who the OP is, I think, and real times and dates, not minutes and hours relative to now.

Still missing who posted last and when.

I would prefer to see names not icons.

Let's try to keep this thread on topic. We had our fun with going off on a million tangents in the "Do you like the new forum?" thread, and that's fine, but I want to get back to being more serious about efficient discussion and sharing of knowledge in the rest of the forum.
