I don't know if this has been brought up before, but it is rather annoying that when I click on a link that it closes the NWD site and opens the link instead of opening a new window, this is the only site that does that to me, all the other sites I am on, when I click on the link, it opens a new window for that link, is there anything that can be done?

Fyi, that works on every browser, every link, everywhere. And its fast, opening in a background tab. So if you have like 5 pictures to look at, middle click all links, and then go though the tabs.

It also works to close tabs on firefox and chrome; never tested it anywhere else... just hover your mouse over the tab at the top, and middle click, bye bye tab. On chrome you can shut it down by middle clicking all the tabs, firefox wont let you middle click the last tab...

There's a middle click?




:yuno: have middle button mouse?



Seriously though, I'm always on the webs with my phone. If on iPhone, you can hold your finger on the link and a menu pops up that you can tap "open in new page". Tap that and then you can come back to NWDatsuns.

Yep, long hold on touch screen is similar to right clicking.

I'm still not getting what a middle click is.

But I also have one of those new laptops that has no buttons on the scroll pad. 1-click, 2 click.

Get a real mouse. Laptop touch pads are the most annoying pieces of shit ever. I have a wireless logitech that is small, and works on just about any surface, glass included. The receiver sticks out like maybe 1/4" out the side of the lappy.

I like the pad on this laptop. Best one I've had on any of my laptops.

You can now view topics you started by clicking "View your topics" next to messages and "View your posts." I need to edit the Dark theme to reflect this.

You can also view others topics' by clicking on their profile, and then clicking, "Search users topics'" Again I still need to edit the dark theme.

So, for the last couple days I've had to re-login to the site every time I turn on my computer. Also, this site has been really slow. Just this site and no others. Am I the only one? Is it just something on my end? A bad update or something?
