Not a large deal but thought I'd bring it to attention. Noticed it long ago but thought maybe related to Firefox and an extension/plug-in specific to my use. I normally have Scroll Highlighting unchecked anyway. Am using someone else's laptop with MS Edge at the moment and the bug does exhibit. Use Scroll Highlighting enabled, a Wash/Rinse/Spin button clicked via ctrl-click to open in new tab, the target link opens in *both* the parent tab and a new tab. Right-click and Open in New Tab works properly, opening the link in only the new tab. The slight irritation (LOL) comes from the convenience of ctrl-click vs. right-click and having to focus the mouse on the Open in New Tab option on the context menu and clicking again. Use Scroll Highlighting disabled, ctrl-click opens the target link properly in only a new tab. |

Mine shows color boxes related to the specific forum around the search results as well. I'll have to try and see if I can reproduce an instance when only gray boxes show.

Hey Robert, perhaps in parallel, maybe a separate Search-a-lator option could be provided to include/exclude Dirty Laundry from the search results at the time of the search? Almost without fail, whenever I search for something technical, one or more of the inline results will be a gigantic image post from one of the "Male Dominion" threads that matched a keyword... which can be a bit of a surprise to scroll through when you (or the people next to you in the store) aren't expecting it! |

I did put my username in the searchbox and the DL posts show up as brown.

Bud/sfh074, are you perhaps using a mobile device for browsing? I don't see any of the points you detail when searching via desktop computer. Robert has a different version of the site for mobile devices, perhaps what you see is specific to that? Except I just now tried a Super Searchalator with my very old iPhone (there's a link up at the top right that says Turn Mobile Off so it is accessing the mobile version) and it looks the same as on my computer. But that's using Firefox on the phone, which probably you're not. |

I believe this is what Bud is referring to. If you have DL turned OFF within your profile, any search results from a DL post will pop up as grey. There have been several times where a thread pops up in the search results as having been originated in DL that I didn't expect to pop up on my screen. This can be awkward in a NSFW situation, which is one of the many reasons why I have DL turned off. And I get it guys, I'm certainly not a prude, however some of us like to be able to surf AW while at work (or in the privacy of our homes) and not have to worry about sensitive content appearing.

you do a fantastic job keeping this website running smoothly and I thank you for your efforts, any glitches are always resolved quickly by you. So, whatever is easiest for you to do is fine with me, and I’ll bet most other members too. I can easily scan over any threads and forums I don’t wish to see.
Just at thought, and I have no idea if this will be difficult, but would it be possible to change the programming so the searcher can check more than one forum for their search request? If this is easily done, then those desiring to avoid DL in their search could check only those fields they want to search. Perhaps, even making the searcher having to always select the forums they want to search and just delete the “search all forums” option. Then if the user ends up in DL its either due to their desire to see it or their error in selection. Eddie |

Bringing up this old OP to note an updated point on it ... I am at a friend's place for several days helping him move. Using Chrome on one of his laptops. Right-click and selecting Open Link In New Tab from the context menu works properly. Holding CTRL and left-clicking, which is a shortcut vs. selecting from the context menu, does not work ... the link opens in the parent tab unless "Use Scroll Highlighting" is unchecked. |
