Do you mean that you want a scroll button that sends you back to the top or that you want a list of the recent threads in the sidebar to easily click on?
I think what would be ideal is to have the breadcrumb trail that's at the top under the banner also at the bottom. Basically a one-click way to go back to the main page of the forum you are in.
Unfortunately I haven't had any luck getting the main link bar at the top or the address bar (LionsRedZone>) to follow a user all the way down the page. That's something I tried to do on our own board as well and wasn't able to. I'll look into again later. For now the "back to top" button in the lower right hand corner will have to do, or the back button on your browser.
I threw together several quick buttons for announcements, sticky, and locked. If you'd rather have some other icons, maybe more Lions related, then let me know which. Like on our board I used a axe/shield for the lock button and a gjallarhorn for announcements. I'm not as familiar with your team xD.
By multi-quote I mean quote multiple posts by different people in the same thread in a single reply. What you describe sounds like it would be able to do this (with other benefits as well), so how do we get that?
Quick Quote is up and running! Let me know what you think...
The first is called "quick quote". It gives you an option to highlight the text of someone's post in case you don't want to quote their entire post. Sometimes that's more useful than quoting a very long post, or if you don't going through a post manually to edit the parts you want to quote.
I went to the old site to see how many posts I needed to demand that I be given credit for (1776, for the record) based on this post. Some of you motherfuckers talk a lot.
I asked God for a bike, but God doesn't work that way. So I stole a bike, and asked God for forgiveness.

I just found this. It's nearly 5 years old though so not sure if still valid.
Goomba is slang for people of Italian descent, mainly in the United States, with several related connotations to the Mafia or gangs of Italian or Italian-American origin. I believe you are a hitman now.
It was my idea for the mafia theme but I am open to suggestions on naming the member ranking system something else.
How do you get to the shout box from the mobile site?
You can't. So that's why we'll do a theme that doesn't have a sidebar. It can somewhat double as a mobile theme (because it works just fine if you have good eyes, even in desktop mode.)
We'll also keep exploring options with the shoutbox vs. chat.

This is the ranking system, I came up with.
Thug- 0 posts
Crook- 25 posts
Goomba 100 posts
Hitman 500 posts
Wiseguy 2000 posts
Boss 5000 posts
Godfather 10,000 posts
Glad to see you poking around and making things your own.
I think the Shoutbox would work great for the game day chat but if you guys think we need something else let us know.
I think the Shoutbox is good, but maybe, if possible make it so a member could make it full screen, or at least so it can show the last 20 or so chats.

From my brief investigation regarding chat rooms, there are free chat rooms that you could embed here on the board, but they would require a separate login/password. Some of them also have an option where you could use a temporary name of your choosing, so the shoutbox is probably your best option. You can move it to it's own page and resize it too.
Unless master sleuth Bobby here can track down a better option lol. He found this fix earlier which I'm going to try now.

Alright yep that worked. Nice find! I also might have found a better spot for that code, right next to the page buttons, so now the breadcrumbs will follow you down the page pinned to the top. Let me know which you like better, or if you like them both lol. The breadcrumbs are at the top, follow you down, and they're at the bottom now, so there should be no problem getting around.

Awesome! I like both, not sure which one I prefer. Probably the one that follows you down makes more sense but I guess it can't hurt to have both. Now I know why you guys wanted to get this stuff done before doing more themes since you have to apply it to every theme.
