Cannot see the multiple posts selection icon on desktop view

Are you sure you don’t see the icon in safe mode, like this URL: https://dessein-tech.com/c/autocad/9?safe_mode=no_themes?

It seems that Topic List Previews with the tites format removes the headers, including the bulk-select (it’s part of the title header).

However, I did some tests with CSS adjustments here and there (assuming the title header is not removed); it’s possible to support the bulk.

The image shows a spreadsheet with two selected columns titled "Understanding Discourse for new users" and "Managing Activity Summary email subscriptions," both marked as general topics, each containing a short summary. (Captioned by AI)

I don’t know if you’re okay with it, but based on my tests, you can support it if you do something like that.

api.registerValueTransformer("topic-list-columns", ({ value: columns }) => {
    if (topicListPreviewsService.displayTiles) {
      columns.delete("activity");
      columns.delete("replies");
      columns.delete("views");
      columns.delete("posters");
      //columns.delete("topic"); 
    }
    return columns;
  });

If you remove ItemTopicCell here:

<template>
  <div class="topic-details">
    <!--ItemTopicCell @topic={{@topic}} /-->
    <PreviewsExcerpt @topic={{@topic}} />
    <PreviewsFooter @topic={{@topic}} />
  </div>
</template>

You do have the same display.
Then, a few CSS adjustments are needed to hide the topic header label and ensure the header is displayed as a block. What do you think?
