I’m just thinking @LockeCJ said early on (I can’t remember if here or the other place) he didn’t want to be on the hook for any of this opportunity/problem beyond getting something set up quickly.

@LockeCJ, I don’t know if that’s changed, but I hope you’re not getting roped into anything …

The BBS currently isn’t showing who replies are directed toward. Is there an easy fix for this?

Can confirm this occurs on both themes, on desktop and mobile.

I’ve seen it show the reply target, but only occasionally. Not entirely sure on the logic…

[edit] ok, it looks like it may only show the reply target if your reply isn’t directly after the post you’re replying to?

test. (I think @Nonentity is correct.) The behavior was the same on “the old” BBS.

It is working. See above.

Only for replies to a first level reply. Reply nesting is not functioning as it should.

I didn’t see the nesting case yet. Good to know.

Perhaps it would have been a clearer point if you had made that a nested reply.

Right. But that behavior is standard for discourse, from what I’ve seen. The nested issue @tinoesroho described sounds different.

I could be wrong, but I feel like it’s a recent change too. I thought it previously only didn’t show the reply target when you just replied to the thread itself.

It wouldn’t surprise me. Discourse seems to roll out such changes without much fanfare.

Agreed. I have been confused by this a few times recently. It seems to be the default behavior, as I haven’t changed anything related to replies.

If anyone knows a setting or plugin to alter this behavior, I’m open to discussing it. It may be worth its own thread.

I still occasionally catch myself scrolling up to see a reply.

It appears to not show who you’re replying to when your post is below theirs.

No, I don’t think your mind is going. And I hate it because I can’t tell if it’s a reply to the main post (where it wouldn’t show) or to the last commenter (where it used to).

I’ll volunteer as well to hover and help when and where I can, although I’m sure the expertise level already offered is way, way above my capacity.
