It selects more than one post to be quoted in a reply. Took me a bit to work out how to use it: click the multi-quote button in two (or more) posts, and then click the "New Reply" button at the the end of the thread. Both/All he posts you selected will be quoted in the reply box.

Thanks! That might do what I want until the forum is fixed to do it the way it should.

Two little gripes...

If I am the originator of a thread, when I edit the message, I'd like to be able to change the topic of the entire thread, and not just the subtopic for that post.

Also, if I made a post, I'd like to be able to delete it if I choose to.

I'm finding today that MobileRead is taking a long time at times to connect and I'm getting a lot of timeouts. This started yeserday with a timeout that lasted maybe 30 min and today it's not good.

I am sorry for the timeouts everyone must have had yesterday and also this morning. We were installing an iSCSI-SAN storage device (for backup purposes) which, beside other stuff, involved adding another network card. Didn't work properly after the first time so we had to reboot one more time this morning.

Other than that I hope you have a good connection to the site. You should experience a considerable improvement to the "old" MobileRead which was hosted on a less powerful server.

If you have connectivity problems, feel free to PM me a log of your traceroute to www.mobileread.com.

To be honest, I think some of the problem may have been my router. I reset both the router and the modem and so far so good.

P.S. I am still getting some timeouts even still. I did some tracerouts and it seems like the issue may be at level 3 in New York and/or Washington.

I saw the stoppage of and on for an hour or so, early yesterday evening (CST), but it's been fine since then.

I am having to refresh sometimes today to get it to work.

JSWolf, are you using IE by any chance? We discovered some HTML code that caused IE to display our pages very slowly.

It's now been fixed.

JSWolf · 06-18-2007, 06:05 AM

I use Firefox. I have the lasted non-beta edition (2.0.0.4)

Do you still have problems?

JSWolf · 06-18-2007, 12:09 PM

Problems seem to have vanished. Thanks!

Alex,

Any update on when and where this may return?
