Golly... I don't know how it does it but when I go to the tapa-talk app on my iPhone it shows "unread topics" and by space Alien technologies and magic, the unread topics show up.
My 16 year old daughter, who is in Scotland for a week set it up for me.

That would most likely solve any futzing around that I would mention........

Just don't know how hard it is to change over something like that?

my workaround is searching in google with "SEARCH TERM site:weberkettleclub.com" I also pop into the images google search to find the pics i am in search of.

SO now i ask you - What can we do to make the site BETTER?
How can we improve? What does the site need?

One thing I miss is the ability turn text into a flickable link. The forum's current "insert hyperlink" is rather pointless, as it already automatically turns text beginning with http:// into a clickable link, right? And more maddeningly, if the Insert Hyperlink button is used on normal text does nothing useful.

So, here's what I'm referring to:

1) type text
2) highlight that text
3) click the forum's "add a hyperlink" button
4) a window pops up and you PASTE your URL into it
5) the result is a clickable link for the text you typed
It's the iconic symbol for the backyard. It's family/friends, food and fun. What more do you need to feel everything [is] going to be all right. As long as we can still have a BBQ in our backyard, the world seems a bit of a better place. At least for that moment. -reillyranch

i've noticed the same, bugs me as well!
I think the next software will handle it better :)

Anyway to make it so that the "$" sign in subject titles won't break the link when you try to post a link to the thread?

YES!
this has been on a post-it note stuck to my whiteboard for a while now!
I'm glad i'm not the only one who has noticed!!

Add me to the list.
I just attempted to post a link which contained the "$" sign and it totally effed up the link. 
I've always had gas...  And now a bunch of kettles because of this place.  Thanks!

Hey Troy......

here's a situation I told you I would look for whilst doing searches:

I search for "Yak Penis" to try to find a previous thread where people were disscussing strange things they've had for dinner & I get one Yakima, one Yak (not the right one), one kayak, a bunch of yakitoris & a bunch of teppanyakis.......


two different tries.....................
