Three things about Discourse

Firstly, what did I press? I dropped my keyboard and when I caught it, Discourse’s interface changed. Now I can see the summary lines for pinned topics.

Don’t get me wrong, I like the new look, but I would like to know which keyboard shortcut I accidentally activated, if any (I admit, I may have just hit F5 and caught a software update).

Secondly, are there any plans to include GHG in the global nickname project?

Finally, I’ve asked this before, but can we set the categories view as the default view? If it can be done on a per-user setting, where is that option?

On your first point, I never saw it any differently. For me, the summary always had shown up for the pinned topics.
Well, always is a relative term, didn’t get the game and find the forum until two days ago!

@EvoGamer we updated discourse today (several times). I think this is the new default look and I think it works quite well.

Discourse offers live updates via AJAX, so I don’t press F5 very often to completely reload the site (I also leave my browser window open for weeks at a time :tongue:).

Really? I could have sworn I saw the summary thingymajigs since I joined. All of those glorious two days ago.

we plan to make it easier to unpin this things

(just pushed a fix for GIGANTIC avatar)

If you want a per user setting, you should lobby on http://meta.discourse.org

I’m sorry to inform you that the Discourse upgrade happened the moment your keyboard is falling.

No shortcut keys in there. Just latest code.

Thanks

Haha! nice 1 there. I myself didn’t know that. Cool feature eh. What was that gem that does that?
