Forum admins have complete control over the way it's displayed though - if they want to change the text displayed (including size and formatting) it's very easy to do. =]

well I do hope that if it's very easy they will think about it, but does anyone agree that the example I posted is slightly better or more noticeable?

Oddly, I never saw the image before. I don't see why it would be too much of a stretch to format it like that though. A Feature Request thread couldn't hurt, unless there already is one. =]

I do like the idea of showing a few names of who liked a post, I'll discuss it with Ryan and see what verdict we come up with.

Update: we're going to do it.

YAY! Thankyou!

And once it gets implemented, ^ this post may have my name on it.

[VS Admin]

Maybe. We'll see.

I'm not sure if this has been suggested yet, and I might be missing some new functionality that's super obvious - but to go to the next page I have to scroll to the top of the page, which, sure, only takes a second or two, but I miss having the pages listed on the bottom also. It just makes sense.

tl;dr: add a way to go to the next page at the bottom of the current page.

Are you using Internet Explorer? I believe there is a bug there. Try a different browser for now - the page listing floats down the page as you scroll. We're working on a fix for IE.

I'm using waterfox. It should be working in this, it's just a slightly more optimized version of Firefox. I'll try chrome.

Edit: This is what I'm seeing.

I actually was going to request this, but then I noticed it was there the whole time, I just didn't see it

Would be nice to keep the likes where they are, otherwise if they're put inside the post itself like the screenshot shows it'll look like a rip-off of another forum.

I don't think so, that is how most forums with the liking system do it.  Not just phpbb or yabb forums either.  IMO it just makes it much more noticeable and it kinda "connects" people a bit better.

I wouldn't go so far as to call it a rip-off, but I'd prefer it where/styled how it is now by default. Not quite so in-your-face, but still there if you want it.

On a forum that wants it to be a feature that gets used, such as resource forums and similar, they want it in your face, because otherwise it's not noticeable. I don't think I'd easily notice it anyway had I not know V5 was getting it.

I think PBS having it partly "in your face" would be fine, because there are a lot of codes, templates, etc etc and I am guessing there are plenty of people too lazy to reply saying thanks, so just a "like" would/could be easier/quicker for them to do, showing more support for the creator.

True enough I suppose, yeah. Was thinking more general usage, rather than PBS specifically. At the end of the day though, it would be easy enough for an admin to format it in the same manner as it is now, if they wished, so it wouldn't really matter too much.
