Re: Suggestions for Team-BHP from Team-BHPians

Every user should be given an option to "Star" his favourite post. Thus, every time I click on a User's bio, I can read one of the starred post which according to him/her is his magnum opus. The user can change is starred post as per his discretion. Ideally it should help other users to learn something about a fellow BHPian.

Interesting suggestion!

I actually had a very similar idea recently, though the difference is that it's a selection of threads/posts the member likes the most (not their own).

Kind of like a "fache89's favourite/recommended reads".

Your 'magnum opus' take on it is interesting too... Maybe we could do both if this is implemented.

Re: Suggestions for Team-BHP from Team-BHPians

I browse team bhp from mobile mostly. I switched to desktop site by mistake and now am not able to get back to smartphone mode. Team bhp gets opened in desktop mode by default and i have to manually switch to bhp smartphone mode. Any solutions?

Go to 'User CP' and click on 'Options'. Scroll down to the bottom till you see 'Miscellaneous Options' and in that sub option - "Forum Skins". From the drop down menu select "BHP Smartphone" and save the settings.

In addition to what a4anurag said, you could just use the dropdown that's at the bottom-left of every page:

Oh it's still switching you back?

Thought so but also thought the search would match words with "Rynox", "air" and "GT3" than "GT", "3".

Instead of using the Team bhp search option search for something like 'rynox air gt 3 team bhp' on Google and you should get the required results. You can also search using the search bar on the top right of any TBHP page

For smaller words & less literal searches, the Google Custom Search box on the top right (of both desktop and mobile skins) will probably do a better job than the vBulletin search:

Re: Suggestions for Team-BHP from Team-BHPians

The text in the posts would look more pleasing to the eyes if they were justified.
Attaching a screenshot for reference from the Kia Seltos Review

Speaking as a one-time typesetter, I'd say... maybe.

There's too much that can go wrong with automated justification and hyphenation that is never checked by a skilled human. I'd vote for sticking with flush-left.
