Provide Options for collapsing threaded view to show only thread titles

Status: New Idea
by Esteemed Contributor on 10-15-2009 10:29 AM

ISSUE:

 

Following the upgrade to version 9, we've have some internal users note that when viewing the forum in "Topic" view (threaded) that all the post replies are shown at the board view.  For long discussions with more than 10 replies or so, this can make the user have to flip through several pages before getting to the next thread.

 

REQUESTED FUNCTION / IDEA: 

 

Provide a toggle option in user profile controlling threaded view to expand all or collapse all threads.   At the board view, implement the familiar [+] [-] type widget next to the discussion balloon icon (or maybe the balloon could have the +/- on it ) to allow users to expand / collapse individual threads to see all replies.   This toggle icon would only appear on the board when the user had their profile selected for topic (threaded) view vs linear view.
