I recently added a few other features during the past week:

Daily Digest = Email listing recent active threads to registered members

Inactive Users = Email reminder after a user goes inactive for 30 days (first time reminders should have been for users 30-365 days)

Similar Threads = A list of up to 5 similar threads listed at the bottom of thread pages.

Please leave any feedback about these features here. Any confirmation if the emails look OK or broken would be good to know too.

The email preferences can be managed like other settings on your preferences page - https://www.emailquestions.com/account/preferences

If there's a way to edit a post I can't see it - is there one?

It's useful if, for example, you have made an error (spelling mistake, wrong link, etc) that you would like to amend.

Edit: It appears that you can edit a post immediately after posting. Is there a set time when the edit feature is disabled?

What is "inactive user"? Somebody who hasn't visited the site for N days? Does (s)he need a reminder about it?

A member who logged in recently but not back between the last 30-365 days. I might not leave that permanently, but thought it was a nice way to try and wake up some people and see who comes back. After the first run it's effectively a one time 30 day inactive reminder.

Tapping/clicking Members is asking me to login. The submenu (collapse) not.

Did this fix itself after the first re-login? Maybe there was something weird about the phase between already being logged in and getting that nav to reappear?

After thinking about it some more I have disabled the inactive users reminder. The one time run was nice to have. The daily digest is plenty. They were both installed at the same time. If you're getting the daily there is no reason for the 30 day inactive reminder. Thanks for making me think about it again! I def don't want them marked as spam.

Did some digging. It looks like a Safari problem. The Find member field triggers my Apple saved password list.

It is a forum setting and can not be changed at the member level.

Were you hoping for more or less results?
