Thanks for setting up the site and being so open to suggestions for improvements, Navindra, I appreciate the work you put in. I love the new "Learners Lounge" title, it is an all encompassing phrase which trips off the tongue nicely and somehow has much more pleasant connotations than anything involving the word "beginners".

keff I did yes. I'm now in Penarth just outside of Cardiff in South Wales.

    I'm glad you're alive, KevinM!

    Thanks navindra for creating this forum. 😃

      navindra Thank you for starting the new forum, it is exciting! Can you please tell me how to add an emoji? When I click on the smiley face below, I get a popup with letters and the words "regional indicator". Sorry I am not very much of a techie.....

          Thank you for all of your efforts in organizing this forum! I'm sorry if this has been asked previously, but I notice there are sometimes very long topics that might usefully be broken up into multiple pages rather than a single long scroll. Is it possible to set things up this way, either server or client side? I'm using an Android phone.

            pseudonym58 sorry, I'm not the right person to ask! But I think modern forums may just be built this way.

            I think you meant to address to @navindra?

                @pseudonym58 I'm not navrinda either and I know you didn't ask me - but there are a few shortcuts that you may find useful on your Android phone 🙂

                At the top of each discussion you'll see this bar:

                When you click that, you'll see a new block where you can either go to the first post, last post or use the slider on left to go to the post you'd like to see:

                It took me a little while to get used to it, but now I prefer it - sooo much easier to navigate than pages!

                  Sophia Thanks; I saw that but did not recognize it as being an active control. That solves the problem. :-)

                      pseudonym58 Awesome, glad to hear that solves the problem, and thanks so much @Sophia and @twocats for stepping in!

                      I think the infinite scroll design is sort of fundamental to Flarum, but I don't see a reason why page by page couldn't be implemented. However, it would just be working against the original design, especially if it's just a matter of getting accustomed to the interface. 🙂

                          navindra Yes; No changes are necessary, at least as far as I'm concerned. Thanks.

                            Wow, I haven’t played piano in a couple of years. Long story not worth relating. I logged into Piano World and was flooded with adds. It took awhile to look up anyone I knew. And saw a post mentioning you, Navindra, and Gombessa. I’m playing again and excited about your forum. I’ll see how to donate and look forward to being involved.
