Steven P. Administrators Posted January 24, 2011 Administrators Share Posted January 24, 2011 Go hover on a topic title in any forum, and see a spiffy preview of it! Timan is still messing about with the style of it, but it works. (Y) PS: Topic preview doesn't work on topics you've just read and have no further (new) posts.

FiB3R Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Cool, I could really use that feature in the mini spy, and latest community activity. That's where I click most of the cryptic topic titles. I wish people would be more descriptive.

Mathachew Veteran Posted January 24, 2011 Veteran Share Posted January 24, 2011 I don't really browse the forums except through New Content search results, so it's not much use atm :( Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/970642-topic-preview-hover-added-to-forums/#findComment-593624530 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven P. Administrators Posted January 24, 2011 Author Administrators Share Posted January 24, 2011 Putting it in the Mini Spy will fail, because as you are loading a topic preview, another topic comes into the Spy and bam.. it's disappears, or the link isn't there anymore :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/970642-topic-preview-hover-added-to-forums/#findComment-593625124 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I don't really browse the forums except through New Content search results, so it's not much use atm :( Same here. Is there a way this can be added to New Content results?

shakey Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Awesome... Now if only you can remove Forum Post that Guest can not get into from the Forum Most Recently Posted List on the home page :p Sure is annoying to click on a link when not signed in and not have access to it, though it is displayed on the home page... Not sure if it is something you guys cared about, but it irks me a tad lol.

If I want to read the post I will click into the post/thread -- I don't need **** like that popping up when My mouse lingers for too long.. The time that it takes for it to appear is a decent length, I wouldn't leave my cursor on a link unless I specifically wanted to click it.

Lee G. Veteran Posted January 24, 2011 Veteran Share Posted January 24, 2011 It's a neat feature (Y) The delay is quite long, so I can't see it being annoying.

sudo Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 The time that it takes for it to appear is a decent length, I wouldn't leave my cursor on a link unless I specifically wanted to click it. In which case you proceed and click it, not wait for a preview.

+BudMan MVC Posted January 24, 2011 MVC Share Posted January 24, 2011 regardless of delay -- is there a way to disable it?? I looked in the forum settings in my profile and did not see one. If not guess time to write a greasemonkey script ;) edit: Ok got it fixed ;) Just blocked this js "https://www.neowin.net/forum/public/js/ips.hovercard.js" Should still make it a setting users can turn off in their profile.
