Can someone explain why it is exactly useful to hide your "last time online" status? This only makes the argument easier for those who are hiding from someone, so now they can, without the possibility of verification, claim that they did not see something because they were offline. Great for scammers.

Can someone explain why it is exactly useful to hide your "last time online" status? Privacy in general. With or without that information, I don't know much more about you. Certainly not more than what you have already said about yourself in some earlier discussions. (You as an example) Or maybe I'm missing something. It would make more sense for privacy to have the option to hide the username.

Does that mean I no longer have to feel guilty (Lol. As if ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) I didn't ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) ) if I suggest more things that need patching? ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Ah, jeez. I knew I shouldn't have taken the money... ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftalkimg.com%2Fimages%2F2024%2F06%2F14%2Fc9TEo.gif&t=665&c=L8EEEhakCGu-iw) (In all seriousness, I'm always interested in hearing people's suggestions and learning about pain points that I haven't experienced myself. So if you or anyone else have ideas about what things should be on my list, there's no harm in letting me know, either by PM or by starting/bumping a Meta topic. I've found that tackling things in priority-order isn't really an efficient way for me to work, so I appreciate having a mixture of tasks that I can put my shoulder to semi-randomly.)

#1, 2, 3, ... 99 on my pain list: have a basic API so that we don't need to scrape e.g. user profiles continuously all the time and instead could just pull recent changes... would be easier on the site, on scrapers, and wouldn't break any time the UI changes. Obviously authenticated and throttled and whatnot.

I'm always interested in hearing people's suggestions and learning about pain points that I haven't experienced myself. Here's one (I've waited a few hours before posting to trigger it again, but I'll only know if it was long enough when I click Post): Your session timed out while posting. Please try to re-submit your message. It's probably not a bug but a feature, but I've seen this far too many times. I often leave a tab open and come back to it hours later. Sometimes it takes me days, in that case I don't mind the error. A couple more hours would be appreciated.

Yep, I've thought about that problem on-and-off for a long time now: I think an API will emerge at some point; it makes sense from too many points of view for it not to. Here's one (...)
Yep, session-expiry is on my list (it's actually something that I've touched very recently).

Dear @theymos and @PowerGlove What's your opinion about changing html/css tables with CSS Flexbox or Grid? I am not a developer (but wanna become one), I created this demo when I was learning html/css and javascript. Look at this: https://jaybates19.github.io/bitcointalk/I rebuilt Bitcointalk's design with my own code. I used CSS gradients instead of images (that Bitcointalk uses right now). I used a combination of Flexbox and CSS grid (mostly flexbox) instead of very old-fashioned HTML tables. Added a small button and with the help of some js, I implemented Dark and Light mode toggler. With small modifications, the design is faster, responsive and also with dark mode. Is it easy for you guys to make small changes to Bitcointalk's current design? I don't know how SMF templates are written, so I don't know how easy or hard it is to modify but I'm asking you if that's possible and not too hard or time-consuming for you.

I aslo dont get it why this maybe is useful , you can still look at the post history if an User is active or not. I also agree that this makes it more difficult to find the bad boys for some cases if they know about that feature. Its good that we see some improvements on the Forum and thanks to PowerGlove for that , but was that needed ?

Another patch made by PowerGlove for the forum. When I see it myself after I visit the forum that there's a word on the profile that says "Recently" then I understand right away that it is a status for that we will see from anyone's forum profile that goes offline either by closing the browser or logging out from the forum. I have something to ask about how long does the status "Recently" will show until it changed to time?. Just asking about it due to curiousity and maybe someone else also want to know about it. (In all seriousness, I'm always interested in hearing people's suggestions and learning about pain points that I haven't experienced myself.
Either with help from us (Bitcointalk forum members by sharing our suggestions, pain points and opinions to you) or not is that I am sure that you can come up with something on your own and we'll surely share it with you if ever we have any suggestions or opinions.

Nice to see the real anonymity coming to the forum gradually. But the 74hours has elapsed and the person is still not active then the inscription should like "days back", "weeks back, "Months ago" and so on. It is a nice feature added to the forum because of it creation of anonymity of the user last activeness in the forum.

I think the SMF software bitcointalk is using has been customized with so many modules that implementing a new theme will loss a lot of features we have now. It will require collecting all the features, documenting and backup the codes of the features those were added then think about implementing a new theme. It's good to see many are trying their best.

Too bad he only gets merits, and not tens of thousands of bitcoins. :/
Riiiight? I'm sure if that were to be the rewarding system here, other developers will be falling over themselves to come up with something new. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) This is a nice feature and it shows the forum is taking privacy of it's users a notch higher. Good job, guys.

A very good update I must say, now, users of the forum just got their ability to complete online privacy bumped up, and kudos to powerglove for his tremendous efforts and contributions to making sure the forum is enhanced, updated and upgraded to keep it; not just running smoothly, but also to ensure satisfaction of users at all times.
This is a long awaited update, even though I believe that many of us previously did not use the "show others your online status" alot, and also, not very many of us were aware of that flaw, but I am happy that it's all fixed now, and users can now come online without others knowing if they are online or not.

IMO it would be best to start a thread about this. Many years ago I started working on something similar. I think replacing the images with CSS is a good start!

Dark theme for Bitcointalk(CSS only). It's ten years ago. 0x256 user has that one custom your bitcointalk header and profile page [css only]

Time flies ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) IIRC it was around that time that I started working on it, though the dark theme CSS was probably the only piece of work made public. That one's cool too, works like this could serve as a good starting point!
