Replies in blue please....

[Jasandjules]

It is an odd request perhaps but I am sure it used to be the case that I would see all my posts in blue - it made it a lot easier to see if a post was quoted so you could politely reply.....

Is there an option I can switch on for this?

Posts or quotes?

Quotes aren't blue, not sure if they ever were though.

Yes if someone quotes me and replies then it is not in blue.

It may be I am making it up but I thought previously quotes were also shown in blue as it made it a lot easier to see if someone quoted your post so you can reply.

Exactly, I am glad it is not just me.

Yep, was as really useful bit of functionality.

Indeed I wonder how many replies I now miss and seem rude in not responding to people.

Come on Admin, can you please put this back or fix it!?!?

Yep, was written by a member and incorporated into the code base years ago. Though as it only looked for some specific html code to work properly it seems the quote post code has changed and the JavaScript can't pick up the element anymore. Shame!

Would be pretty quick to fix.

Come on Admin - fix it please ........

That is very cute.

But I still want replies in blue

[Jasandjules]

Looks like i am not going to get them though

[Jasandjules]

Indeed, even more so because I was used to it..... So much harder to see when people quote/ask you something now.

Don't hold your breath

If I did that I'd be as blue as I want my quoted replies to be

Should be very easy for someone with web experience to create a browser extension to replicate the functionality(?).

Yes it appears it was a forum member who did the original so not sure why it is not here now.

Because the markup that it targets has subsequently been changed so it no longer detects the quotes. Haymarket have been 100% clear that nothing will be done to improve PH going forward.

If they are not going to improve it then why not let someone else take over ?!?
