Sorry, that's how xenForo works. There's no setting to change this.

Hey @cybrguy 
If you are not browsing on a phone, find the thread you want in the relevent forum, and then hover your mouse over your avatar which is inset on the thread authors avatar, next to the thread title.
A pop-up will appear telling you how many messages you have posted in that particular thread.
Et voilà!
Peace bro.

@kellya86 I'm not sure, but I think there are issues with the version served to mobile devices, there are a lot of things that simply can't work (such as hover effects).
And depending on the device and the underlying OS, means the device's browser might be sucky (such as iPhones and Safari)
Even apple fanboy's have to admit Safari is the worst browser on the market and always has been.
It could also be a delay thing, dependent on how good your connection is and the server responding to the request. You may find that the page hasn't fully loaded and so resources such as JavaScript with the 'on-click' events haven't been registered yet.
A quick glance shows it is likely they are using JQuery and if on-click events are assigned / delegated at 'document ready', which is common practice using the JQuery framework, only when the page has fully loaded are the events registered.
How long have you waited before trying to like something?
Can you confirm the page has fully loaded before trying to use any functionality?

Herb gardener...
Yes the page is definitely fully loaded, I use a note 4 for fc browsing..
It just let me like your post straight away this time, but other times I can press like as much as I want with no like...
I always come back and like the things I couldn't like, but sometimes I feel rude that I can't like something, it's sort of like a little thank you, or just some mutual acknowledgement of a point..
When someone has liked my previous post and said something good, I can't return the gesture...
It annoys me a little but I'll live with it... I'm sure the guys at fc are updating all the time, sure it will get fixed eventually...

On mobile I have to tap slightly down and left of the visible Like button

If you look at the code the like is two span tags wrapped in an anchor, and it could be the way your mobile is handling this.
Especially as span and anchor tags are inline elements and need to be set to inline-block for widths to be applied correctly.
They have also been floated out of the normal document flow, which again can cause z-index issues, so although they are visible, the layers aren't giving access to the underlying element functionality.

i also have a question ...
is there an alternative reader that can read a thread and reformat the content - most important to me, pull out images into a gallery. i'd also like it to organize the comments - grouped by tags/terms to isolate sidebar discussions (could be an AI bot); and, group/list comments by user name. maybe apply an outliner to show important comments - likes, emojies, mod intervention.
so, does such a thing exist? can't be that hard to do.

I have a question too.
Is the feature to insert html code restricted to admins only?
I was trying to embed a player from bandcamp using insert code and then selecting html as language since the player link is in html but I can't seem to make it work, here is how it looks like when I use it:
Is this something that would have to be added to the forum features so bandcamp players can be supported as media like youtube or DM and the like?

So the answers to my questions are:
1) "you don't need to know"
2) "you're still here?"
I get the just, thank you.

Never really thought it was such an issue as a simple copy paste of my name would work. And no need to get the big C++ guns out, just type Alt + O176.That's great but could you answer the conundrum that is your profile name.
How do I tag or PM you? It's really a pain.
Do I need to brush up on my C++ or something.
So the answers to my questions are:
1) "you don't need to know"
2) "you're still here?"

It appears that you don't. Please don't put words in my mouth. My answer was straightforward with no hidden meaning. The forum software does not support HTML code for embedding video. If you need that explained to you, please use a PM.

It's an obsession but it's pleasin'
I realize this is off topic but I have tried contacting forum admin about this in the past and gotten no response and I know you guys know your shit.
I am watching (with email notifications) several threads here on FC. At random intervals, I will stop getting notifications of new posts on one or more of those threads. After a couple of days I realize there MUST have been posts and check the threads to find that there have been many messages and although I am still watching the thread, I didn't receive any emails.
After I un-watch and re-watch the thread, I start getting emails again until I don't. I don't see any rhyme or reason as to why or when it happens, but it happens over and over again.
Has anyone else had this happen? Anyone know how to stop it from happening?
Again, sorry for the OT.

I found similar inconsistencies and now when I log in I just hit "watched threads", shows me just what I'm following that has had new posts. Works for me because I check in often
If you visit FC and do not read a watched thread, the software assumes you are no longer interested and stops sending notifications until you visit the thread again.
