Answered Staff Online Notification

[Kevin Farnell]

Something I've noticed over the last few days, is that on the homepage in the 'Members Online' column the 'Staff Online' is only showing their avatars, whereas I'm sure it also used to list their username.

Hi Kevin,

Thanks for noticing the change and the feedback. This was intentional as a little bit of a space saver to merge the two blocks together. I believe it was like this when we were running on XenForo 1 but when we switched over to 2.0, this customisation change was removed as it had previously been unavailable until now.

Thanks Ashley. It's not a problem, just something that I noticed. I'm aware that the staff online are also named in the members list so it's still easy to see who's about.

Cheers

A relatively new members will not know well the Avatars of people, I struggle at times with eyesight however I quite like the new look. Excellent idea Ashley.

IF viewing the forum on computer, hover the cursor over the avatar and it will expand it to show details of the staff member.

Useful advice, thank you.

Thanks for the feedback @JENNYJET If staff identification could be a potential issue, then there is always a possibility to give user groups colour IDs e.g. brown for admin, green for moderators, gold for a subscriber, etc. otherwise as @Kevin Farnell said, you can hover over the avatar or username and it'll show additional details about the person

Done it on a 7inch tablet with a fingertips, works a treat. No further action necessary. Thank you.
