3.2. Thread list

The thread list contains the threads of a selected forum. The threads may be separated into important threads or announcements and normal threads. Clicking the table head the threads can be sorted.

For each thread there is the following information available:

  • Topic of the thread
  • Status of the thread (eg. closed, read, ...)
  • Author of the thread, including the publishing date
  • Rating by the users
  • Number of replies and views
  • Author of the last reply, as well as posting time
  • Special icons if the thread holds own replies, attachments or is subscribed by you
  • Short preview of the thread when you hold the mouse over the title (it might be different depending on the browser)
  • Prefix

The following thread-status are possible:

  • Read
  • Unread:

    If you have not read a thread it will be marked with a special icon and printed in bold letters. In front of each unread topic you will find an arrow linked with the first unread post.

  • Closed:

    Threads may be closed by moderators, replies are then no longer possible.

  • Disabled:

    The administrator can set certain boards moderated, meaning that threads are marked disabled after they are created. A moderator has to enable the thread first to make it accessible by other users. Moderators will see those disabled threads marked green.

  • Deleted:

    Deleted threads will be marked red and stay visible for moderators only until they are removed completely
