I will never venture to recommend my fave SF dim sum place for fear of the negative pile-on.

Check at the top of the index next to "REPLIES" and see if that's happened. The Chowhound Team Sun, 13 May 2012 12:53:46 GMT http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/848838#7336149 http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/848899#7335430 I used to really enjoy the Super Taster columns. Sure, it was mostly stuff that I would never buy, but they were a fun quick read. Now they are all 2-3 minute videos. It's like you took something easy and made it harder, for no good reason. Can anyone explain why it's only videos now? I don't want to watch a video, and it appears I'm not alone, as the majority of comments re: the videos are pleas to make them stop, or at least post the column also. From what I've seen, no explanation has been given for the change. So, what gives? Thanks. caviar_and_chitlins Sat, 12 May 2012 21:25:32 GMT http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/848899#7335430 http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/835304#7334068 Sometimes I go to the poster's profile page. I can see at a glance that you have 123 pages of posts, and with another click, that you have been posting since 2006 (was that the start of this system?) davis_sq_pro has been around nearly as long, though hasn't posted as heavily. 1POINT21GW is a relative newcomer with 3 pages, and only a month of posting. The profile page also gives me a quick idea of the posters interests, and location (from the regional boards that they post on). Other forums have profile pages, but I think Chow's is one of the most useful. paulj Fri, 11 May 2012 21:45:47 GMT http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/835304#7334068 http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/848671#7332676 If you search from the board you want the results (as far as I have found), the search only pulls from that board. Keywords, I am not sure what you are asking for there. I recently did a search on a local board for a post I know was made a few years ago, and yes, Voila! with 3 keywords. So, right now we are on the Site Talk board, if you use the search bar on this page, the keywords you use will only search this board, I hope that clarifies this somewhat for you.

Dave MP Mon, 07 May 2012 21:15:37 GMT http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/847807#7325392 http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/843260#7324906 Glad to help. I'd like to say that as a longtime user of Chowhound (about 9 years), I remember carrying around printouts of annotated Chowhound conversations in the glove box of my car. It was not long ago that a portable Chowhound was a pipe dream. I remember wishing I could have CH in my pocket, and now I do- and that's pretty amazing. So even with the quirks of the mobile site that I've outlined above, the functionality is leagues beyond anything I could have dreamed of just a few years ago and for that I am very appreciative. Having said that, please fix it ;-) Mr Taster Mr Taster Mon, 07 May 2012 17:46:05 GMT http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/843260#7324906 http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/844969#7323377 Thanks Melanie. All good tips. If they specific types of questions you mentioned are considered on topic, that's great. I probably will want to ask about things like butchering a fresh catch, in-season fish etc. For now the thread has given me lots of good leads to look into. Thanks for your tips and help. bythebay Sun, 06 May 2012 20:14:56 GMT http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/844969#7323377 http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/834883#7322518 I think what's really needed is not to be able to remove oneself from a thread but to have a flag (a variant of the "new" flag) that indicates when there is a reply to something one has previously posted in response to the discussion/question. I have no interest in reading the latest in the 1000+ posts on strange food combinations. However, if someone posts a question regarding something I posted on that thread a couple of years ago, I would like to know (without having to spend a day on it) so that I can answer and not leave them hanging. It would be easy enough to just ignore it when a "new" flag resurrects an old thread that no longer interests me so long as I know the new post does not directly pertain to my previous participation in that thread. greygarious Sun, 06 May 2012 04:44:47 GMT http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/834883#7322518 http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/847539#7318813 What browser and version of Ad block are you using? I use Chrome and actually have the CatBlock version and have no issues watching the videos here. I am using the plain vanilla Ad Block 2.5. The pro did not work so well for me. And now that I have the April fool's version of it, it's very fun.

Our apologies for the inconvenience. Engineering Thu, 03 May 2012 16:46:30 GMT http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/847302#7317399 http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/839666#7316104 Products (as I now understand it) means those vegetarian or vegan items that can be found through either an online source or via a national chain. I would think that General topics would be about those products covered under my lead in sentence above, or asking others about similar or different products, and where they can be sourced on a national or Internet basis. A specific one off Vegan truck that happens to be found in one of the Outer Boroughs needs to be talked about on that local board. Just think if we started chattering about vegan restaurants in San Jose or Miami or Boston on that board. No one would ever think to find them there and it would be a mammoth mash up of "Where are you talking about" and "Why are you discussing vegan restaurants in Paris, Texas on this board?" (as examples of why that wouldn't work) Servorg Thu, 03 May 2012 00:03:34 GMT http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/839666#7316104 http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/846984#7315847 Hi atl5e.

I guess that is one plus for insomnia! meatn3 Tue, 01 May 2012 22:50:10 GMT http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/846955#7313351 http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/846460#7310223 I take it that this was black text on a white background, as opposed to our "Something went wrong" page? Additionally, I'm not able to reproduce the problem at the moment; is the recipe loading correctly for you now? Engineering Mon, 30 Apr 2012 17:46:55 GMT http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/846460#7310223 http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/841412#7310221 This is still a problem for me, but I discovered today that if I happen to be in a view that has collapsed replies, if I click on one to expand it, that sends the footer overlay to its regular place at the bottom of the page, and keeps the other posts collapsed. (I've only tried it with posts above the footer overlay, so I don't know if clicking one below would also fix it.) So, that's a way I can view the collapsed pages, but still leaves no real solution for the full board listings, which will change contents if I refresh. On the other hand, those views are usually sorted by date order, so I only have to look at the top ones again to find anything new. This probably doesn't make any difference for you to be able to fix this, but I wanted to let you know. Thanks. hbg1 Mon, 30 Apr 2012 17:45:54 GMT http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/841412#7310221 http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/846842#7310054 As of this AM, the site keeps logging me out and then doesn't recognize my password when I try to log back in. I can only get in by resetting my password (to the same one as before). But that doesn't last long, whereupon the site logs me out again and the cycle starts over again. I haven't changed any browser security settings or anything, so I don't think the problem is on my end.

I would recommend disabling add-ons one at a time and testing after each to figure out which is responsible.

See below, for a copy of the post I put up on the Boston Board. Eventually, successful experiments may be implemented across all Digests: If you have any questions/comments about this, feel free to post them to this Site Talk thread. Thanks! Dave MP _____________________________ Hello Boston Board, I've been experimenting with some changes to the Boston Digest, and wanted to alert you all to some of them. Nothing I'm doing is necessarily permanent, but I thought it would be useful to share, as some of you may be seeing changes already. For those who don't know, you can find the Boston Digest here: http://www.chow.com/digest/boston/ You can bookmark this page to return there regularly in your browser, or you can subscribe to the RSS feed to receive the Digest through another format (whether on your computer or tablet or smart phone). The Boston board has had some really great content recently—check and see if your tip has made the Digest! I'm experimenting with more frequent posts (some shorter, some longer) as well as the use of pictures. This means that users who post great photographs to CHOW might see them featured, in addition to the great writing and tips that are already included. I've also started a Boston Chowhound Twitter account, which you can follow at @ChowhoundBoston I'll use this account to tweet about every new entry to the Boston Digest....so if you prefer to just follow Twitter instead of using an RSS feed, you'll be able to see links to each story that way, too. I may eventually use the Twitter account to highlight specific threads too, even if they are not featured in the Digest, although this is still to be determined. Regardless, it'll be worthwhile to follow! Thanks to everyone for the great posts and for contributing to the Boston Chowhound community. Even though I'm in California, I'm often jealous reading about what you are eating! Thanks, Dave MP Dave MP Tue, 24 Apr 2012 22:20:33 GMT http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/845913#7298699 http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/845443#7297746 It's working niow.

Yes there are some fluff threads but overall I find the most relevant info there. The PA board which is the most useful for me is a ghost town and I get great ideas from many of the topical boards. melpy Mon, 23 Apr 2012 13:55:11 GMT http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/845365#7295199 http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/845171#7294264 Super excellent answer, Engineering!

You can also use this tab on any user's profile to see that user's last 30 posts. We don't currently have a way to see any more than this.
