The to-do list link in the first post seems to be broken.

It's getting to the point where I'm starting to think about importing threads from DW to the constellation. Is that a thing that can happen?

Minor bug: when I use URL manipulation to change the number of posts per page to something other than one of the options in the drop-down box, it works but I the drop-down boxes themselves get confused.

Is there, or will there be, a function to un-Read a thread?

Is there, or will there be, a function to restore a thread that has been hidden from Unread?

@Ezra: Both of those functions can be accomplished using "Mark Unread" in the menu that shows up next to the thread title on a /posts page.

Suggestion: on pages that list threads (e.g. Unread Posts), it would be nice to be able to sort on things other than Last Updated. #Unread and Continuity seem like the most useful; Author would also be nice if there's some good way to sort it.

Bell nicknames are in quotes ("Aether", for instance) and I have to type the quote to find them by nickname when I search the character dropdown.

That should work for me, thank you!

This should only be a problem the first time you use a Bell on a thread right? Subsequent times they're at the top of the character picker under the heading of characters already used in this thread. Also maybe if you add their template nickname to the template nickname field that works? Haven't tried so not totally sure.

And by the way I second this wherever my coauthors are okay with it (which I think now is probably almost every one of them) but I think Marri wanted to implement the "subcontinuities" thingamajig? Not to mention the multiple-threads-with-same-parent-post thing, which is more technical challenge than anything but Marri said she liked my idea (and now that I know Ruby again I might even see if there isn't anything I can do about it).

Also, suggestions:
1. Organise continuities and such like a forum: boards and subboards and subsubboards etc
2. Character groups: you can make a character belong to many of those in a way similar to how you can pick many galleries to belong to a character (i.e. when you edit the character you type the name of the groups it belongs to) and then in the "characters" page there's a "groups" tab (subtab?) where you can see characters organised by groups (perhaps the groups are minimised, so you browse your groups as you want) (perhaps the groups can also nest so for instance Faceless can have a "the triplets" group inside a "resonance characters" group or something like that).
3. If ^ or something like it is implemented, the character picker could be organised either by template or by character group, perhaps as a setting in the account settings page.
4. An option in Settings for the icon-and-account part of the post to be on the left or right side of a post.
5. An option in Settings for no icon as an overlay on any styles instead of being its own style.
6. Options in settings on what to show of a character on the little character info of the post (so perhaps I want to see character name and character nickname but not screenname and author when I read posts, stuff like that).
