(20:16:19) bantu: Feedback please. http://tracker.phpbb.com/browse/PHPBB3-9922?focusedCommentId=35566&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-35566
(20:18:41) nn-: i don't see where the hyperlink existed previously
(20:18:50) nn-: github cutting off the view does not help
(20:19:32) bantu: nn-: one second
(20:19:55) nn-: tested on styles demo
(20:20:07) nn-: so the icon does link to post but there is essentially no indication that it does

(20:21:03) nn-: i'm ok with changing it
(20:21:40) nn-: i wonder if those who object to this change use subsilver
(20:21:49) nn-: this sounds like an improvement on usability
(20:21:52) nn-: A_Jelly_Donut: ^
(20:22:42) A_Jelly_Donut: the difference is the link to the post istelf?
(20:22:55) nn-: yes
(20:23:16) bantu: yup
(20:23:57) A_Jelly_Donut: I personally always use the little "page" icon ... but that's because I used phpBB2
(20:24:08) A_Jelly_Donut: so I see no benefit in the patch
(20:24:55) nn-: A_Jelly_Donut: honestly it took me a bit to realize that clicking post title links to it in prosilver
(20:25:03) A_Jelly_Donut: but others, users of prosilver, might
(20:25:09) nn-: and this is with me expecting that functionality, i just didn't know where it was
(20:26:23) nn-: i think vb uses icon to link to posts
(20:26:37) nn-: but i think they also change icon color based on read/unread status
(20:26:45) nn-: so it's something that jumps out
(20:27:09) A_Jelly_Donut: vB uses "#11" as a link to post
(20:27:11) nn-: another thing is the post icon is on the right side with the date
(20:27:21) A_Jelly_Donut: although that _might_ be style related
(20:27:35) nn-: maybe if it was on the left side before post title more people would try to click it
(20:27:42) nn-: A_Jelly_Donut: i was referring to vb 2 ;)
(20:27:56) nn-: or maybe i made that up
(20:27:59) A_Jelly_Donut: ah, I haven't seen one of those since like 2005 :P
(20:30:21) nn-: looks like some prosilver derivatives take the link out
(20:30:51) nn-: also post icon in prosilver is on the left
(20:33:48) nn-: http://i.imgur.com/4y2w6.png
(20:34:00) nn-: would be my proposed alternative
(20:34:51) bantu: nah
(20:35:06) bantu: can't do that in a minor release
