Yes, I see that. Hence my question. I run two sites with UBBThreads, one that you saw,
http://www.natcazjx.org , which doesn't matter for spidering anyway (not looking for exposure), and another one,
http://www.fish-tails.net , which benefits from threaded views in the forum. The thing that drew me to wwwthreads, er, ubbthreads, in the past, and the reason I stay with it is due to the "expand/collapse" ability. Without it I can not upgrade. It is an integral part of my forums, and my users like it, and want it. They like everything about the new 7.x series except the inability to expand/collapse the forums. I would also add, for those of you that are concerned, spiders will do better for your forums if you have your forums set up in expanded view as a default, in other words, non member or guest use. Believe it or not, each post will be spidered individually as seperate, instead of one. Say you have one thread with 15 replies. It will be spidered as one page, but if it is separated via threaded view, you hav 16 pages. See the benefit?
Either way, I've GOT to have expanded views in forum mode. I hope Rick decides to put this ability back. It was configurable before, why not now? Rick, you've had an excellent product that many have wanted and are loyal. Please give us back our original functionality. Don't take away to improve, just improve and build upon what you have.
Hopeful in FLA, Mark
