When writing a new post or replying to an existing one, a panel lights up saying “Please consider replying to several posts at once” or “Your topic is similar to…” etc. My extremely Non-Geek audience are very confused by that, especially the new arrivals. How can I disable that? thanks

[이미지] zogstrip: That message has nothing to do with which reply button they use I was rather under the impression it only shows up when you hit the grey button. but… i can’t verify that even to satisfy my own curiosity, because i’ve now disabled it, :slight_smile: [이미지] zogstrip: It’s a…

[이미지] Andrei_Blanda: Would love to be able to disable the “Consider replying to several posts at once.”? Hey Andrei, this is what Kris replied to that at the time: [이미지] awesomerobot: “Please consider replying to several posts at once” You can disable this one by changing the sequenti…
