Suggestions for the new PaGaLGuY Chit-Chat

Hello again :)
Since the new site has been launched, we're working furiously to fix stuff and generally to keep things in order. I understand this is a huge change for all of you, but give it a week or two and you'll start getting used to and may be even appreciating the new one.
For folks ...

Next season's Quant thread needs to have Forum Guidelines and regulations lined out in the thread's First post.
It is tough to moderate, but providing an outline of general discipline and standards for using the thread might help make it more tidy and coherent. We at the thread often make it a...
@pagalguy In the old PG forums there was a feature that helped to see how many attachments are there for a particular thread and the freedom to download the attachments without actually going through all the posts in the thread. In the new PG version, I don't find that feature. It is creating a l...
Parsable text for math expressions would be a wonderful addition.
Additionaly, few minor features would be great too, w.r.t prep threads.1. Ability to quote posts from multiple pages.2. To have the quoted posts retain original form (line breaks and text decoration), along with the ability to ...

Is there no decent WYSIWYM latex editor? Stuff that can parse your text and on submission show the right stuff for now. Later can push it and make it WYSIWYG ?
I've actually had a look at this and it's doable. The problem is, there are actual mini languages to get text in a parsable math form. The most popular among which is LaTex. It's powerful, I agree, but quite a bit complicated, or more to the point, seemingly complicated. Give it a look and let me...
This was roughly the concern that was solved in prep. http://www.pagalguy.com/prep/
It does it far more elegantly than threads can.
Actualy there is only one scenario where , the 'number of times this post has been replied to' feature finds use :
When a person clicks on a thread and lands on a page say (n-5), because since he left, 5 pages have been added to the ever growing thread, sees a post having an unsolved Qn in ...
I'll investigate this. @sonnes @jibi.abraham Never seen that feature of no of times replied to or quoted. I don't see the utility in that one except in rare cases, so won't be doing it. But the quant section mathematical symbol idea needs some further looking into

Just came face 2 face with new refreshing look of MBA Forums page and boy! it is refreshing..great appeal and great color scheme. Ever since the launch of PG v2, new changes have been creeping in almost everyday.
Nobdy would have anticipated that PG could become so feature-rich. The efforts ...

you need to PM me the exact post which gave the error. unless i can replicate the bug here i cannot fix it.
Nope its the same with both if I copy something or type in getting the same issue. At times I hightlight some part of the post by using Bold that I typed in but after posting in it doesn't get highlighted in Bold
Same problem here :banghead:
will look into it. usually happens if the post contains certain unicode characters/ copied from word etc. working fine if you type anything else ???

Sandeep (deepu) I'm having a hard time while posting. After typing the post I click on "Add Reply" it sometime keep showing as "Posting" forever but the post never get posted. If I exit out of the thread & try again still getting the same issue.

In my view, the font size of signature link is less. If we could make it similar to the font size of what we post, it will be better.

At the moment YES that would do! If that's possible then I'm good with it.
so an archive option would suffice ?

Thanks mate!
for now yes no way to change. we might introduce the change in nick a bit later.
Yes Harry, I'm talking about my user -id that is displayed when I post stuff. Any idea whether I'll be able to change it somehow? Or am I stuck with my real name as my id for the rest of my PG-life?
if your nick is your full name then we don't yet have functionality to change nick as it involves changing a lot of URLS and posts made by you etc.
Its his user id which is his name i guess

where does it display full name ?
we are already busy for the next 1 month with critical features. will consider after that.

Can the Admin activate Pagalguy on Tapatalk??? Tapatalk is a mobile app which allows users to browse forums on their android/windows/iphone or blackberry devices.......... It is much better than viewing the site on a mobile browser......
Hi,
I'm a newbie here, so I apologize if this isn't the correct thread to post this.
This might be silly but I'm having trouble changing my user-id. It displays my full name (which I don't want it to). I tried updating my name in my profile but it still displays the original name!
Any h...
as i just said you can't delete a message yet.
Too many feeds beats the purpose of a feed (a single place to keep tabs on everything). i think 2 feeds is stretching it. we won't introduce any more feeds.
there are different solutions to this problem. first you can simply unfollow people/threads who are not very useful. second just keep a...
