Question on post reply notification
|
Can't Post
|

Dear MODS,
Could the post to which a response is for be added in the notification? I feel it would be more helpful to know this since posters would have multiple posts in the same forum, and even in the same thread. Thanks.
Example of current notification content:
The One Ring Forums

I'm a lurker. Fan of both books and movies; it seems I have severely misnamed myself... for the moment.

(Tis true! More appreciation threads for Thranduil exist than ME movies)
 Thrall Wars!: What business do Elves, Dwarves or Men(?) have with drooling thralls, yea, with smartphones in tow, unto the slopes of Erebor? ... oh, yes, the Hobbit's lingering in some shadows, ever ready to swoop to the hairy rescue.

I don't think that's possible, but I'll check into it (it will take a while). Since it only takes a few seconds to follow the link in the email to find out who replied, and to which post, I'm not sure how much utility it actually adds unless you don't want to follow the link if the reply is from certain people?
