Returning the GP Dice Icon to the front of threads

Sep 18, 2021 5:55 pm
Is there any objection to my putting the GP Dice Logo Icons back on the threads in dark theme?

I have done so on my system and can not see any problems with it --they look fine on both read and unread threads. Without the icons there is a gap there, which looked strange till I learned that something was missing.

Without the icons, the indication of whether a thread is locked or pinned is also gone. I'm 100% in favor of this.

On a related note, would it be possible to make the dice logo icons work like that page icon on unread threads so you can click that and get to the first unread post? Would make browsing on mobile with sausage fingers a lot easier

Oh yes! Double yes from me. I get pissy with my phone when I misclick things for some reason.

That would be the intuitive thing to have happen, then we don't need the extra icon at all anymore.
The icon could always take us to the last post, that way it is consistent and we don't need to find the last page marker and then scroll.

So:
* Bring the missing dice back.
* Clicking the die takes to the last post.

vagueGM - do you want to get this or should I?

I can bring them back.

Making them link to the last post would require my delving into the PHP and then my eyes would bleed. If you can do that bit for me I would be internally grateful. :)

Nah - it's alright. I'll get it (I'll have to anyway just to test the links)

I took them out and I should clean up my own mess.

Yeah. Bringing them back is literally as hard as deleting one line, you might as well while you are working on it. :)

Or first unread post, if any. Right?

Yeah. I am sure that is what we meant to say. :)

First unread post, if they can be done, is my vote.
