Is there a way to show a thread preview by hovering the mouse over the tite while browsing the different sections? I have seen this on other forums (the ones that I have left since) ad only see the date being shown as a preview here.
Just curious.

There are a few phpBB mods that add a javascript plugin that makes it so you can preview what is under the first post. It replaces or adds to the current mouseover of time/date posted.

If there is a big demand for it, I'll install it.

Im not really a fan either because it stays in place while you scroll and you cant see the other titles. I was just more curious then anything.

I personally just dislike phpBB mods at all. Because the support for them tend to drop off after a year or two. phpBB is fine and good, until you start modding it and trying to update it later on.

That's why if you are handy with the HTML and don't stack on too many mods it's easily manageable. php isn't a very difficult language once you start playing with it.. It's just knowing what lines you can mess with and what lines will crash your site lol. On here we have a few mods, but a lot of custom scripting too (well, 1/2 custom, 1/2 improving on other code).

If both Massivedesign and Madpick hate it then it's something we've got to have.
