Place your cursor to the left of the title of the thread you wish to view.  In Chrome, there is a dot or button there. In IE, the button is invisible...BUT it still works.

I contacted Invision about post numbers and got the following reply:

“Post Numbers are internally numbered. If you select the share icon in the top left, you will see comment= and a number at the end. This is the internal post number. There is no numbering such as 1,2,3 on an individual post. This was actually removed from the software as it was extremely misleading. The 5th post for example for yourself, may not be the 5th for someone else. Lets say for example you can see post 2 and 3 but they are hidden, for you post 5 would indeed be the 5th post in the database, however for others it would show as post 3 (because they dont see the 2 hidden posts).”

The logical solution would have been to assign and display post numbers, and simply not display the number for hidden posts. Or, display the number of hidden post and hide only the text.

I sometimes prefer giving page and post numbers rather than linking to the posts.

But thanks James for contacting Invision.

Tom,

PM's are now "Messages". They are identified by the envelope to the left of your name.

Simply click the envelope and choose "Compose New."

Essentially this upgrade is the same as the previous system, however there are some differences. It may take us a while to get on top of all the differences. We could not remain with the old software because Invision no longer supported it. Hopefully we will soon iron out all the kinks in the system.

James.
