One thing I just found: for those of us who like to have our signature further down the page from the body of the comment, just keep hitting "enter" key, This will put blank spaces between text and signature. Now lets see if it works again.

Please do not do that.... It can take up too much extra space and slow the system down. If Admin wants that feature, they will add that.

missing forum categories
Will the categories for help or items that people are seeking to locate be returned in the future, or are they now gone for good?

They are still part of the list of Forum, which can be viewed from the menu above. If there's a caret/arrow after a forum title, click on that.

I did read that thread prior to posting earlier, as I said. It doesn't offer any solutions to the issue I raised. I had already searched looked through the User CP and didn't find any setting that allows me to signal when I've already read a thread. If there is a direct solution, please provide it. Otherwise, please add it to the list.
boldface to not bold will suffice unless they can fiddle with something behind the scenes.
it is a low priority.

I didn't read all of the messages, but enough pages to know what most of the complaints are. My question concerns the changing of the color of the font after clicking to read a thread. I notice that the archives still has that feature. Is that because the tech team just hasn't gotten to the archives yet? I really like that feature, because I'm on the board spasmodically, and it saves me time. (I guess I'm admitting that my memory isn't as good as it should be, since I sometimes have to read a bit of something to realize I've read it previously. Not always, but sometimes....)
