Any thoughts on website update?

I don’t know of a specific ETA for this, I’m afraid, but I can ask!

is baby name dna the new namehunter or are they separate features ??

They are separate features. I believe initially DNA was intended to replace Namehunter but they really do different things so I think the plan now is to reintroduce an updated version of Namehunter alongside DNA at some point in the future. This is not an immediate plan, and I don’t have a date for the reintroduction unfortunately.

thank you !!!

How do we get our name notes back? You know, the ones we used to be able to add for each name on our name lists?

Thanks.

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] @katsumii. Unfortunately, it’s no longer possible to add notes to name lists and as far as I know there’s no way of accessing old ones. I’m sorry, I know it must be frustrating to have lost notes :slightly_frowning_face:

idk if this has been brought up already but now when we edit a post, the links for the names disappear. The best way I can fix it is to copy my original post that has the pink /green/ blue links and paste it into the edit which then comes out as hyperlinks. I suppose the blue hyperlinks are better than nothing but I rather have the pink/green/blue links. While this is more of an annoyance than a a functionality problem, this wasn’t happening when we first switched over to this new website so I feel like it should be a quick and easy switch back to how it originally was. I would rather go back to when it was only the first name in a line that didn’t show up in a link as that would have been a quick fix (at least for me as I know how to make the link show up when I edit it) instead of having to fix every single name if that’s the price to pay

I’m not a fan of the blue bubbles for each person’s reply. On bad days, it’s hard for me to read due to the colors used. Could there be an option for other colors, an outline of a speech bubble or an option to turn it off if wanted?

Sorry [name_u]Shelly[/name_u], this is not something we chose, it’s just part of the latest Discourse update. I think the idea is to differentiate personal message threads from regular topics more clearly.

I haven’t read through all of the replies, but I remember before the update that the names used to be listed in alphabetical order. Now they’re in a random order and instead of being able to see All Names Starting with a letter, I only have the option to see [name_u]Unique[/name_u] names starting with said letter. Is there a way to view the names like before?

If you do an advanced search, and enter the initial you want in the “Starts with” box, that will give you alphabetical results. You can also specify girl, boy or unisex names if you like.
