Moving Kudos button on forum messages?

[Laura F.]

Hey Everyone -

I found out that I can move the Kudos button in forum messages inside the message body, next to the reply button. I think it may make sense in this location because it is more apparent that you are giving the message kudos.  In it's current location just under the avatar, it sort of blends in with the user credentials and could be overlooked. 

I plan to go ahead with this change soon but I wanted to see if there are reasons that the button is better off in its current location.  I've attached two images with the Kudos button in the proposed location - the first is what you would normally see for a message and the second is what you would see if you started the thread and had the ability to accept a reply as a solution.

Thanks,

Laura

LabVIEW programmers don't do well with words alone. Do you have a screenshot how it would look like? 😄

[RayFarmer]

should you keep the picture where it is and just move the button?

I'll second the idea to to move it. if it's next to the the reply button there is a better chance of of readers acidently giving out Kudos.

Ooops

I like the way that I told you there were screenshots attached and I didn't actually attach them....

One shows what you see if you did not start the thread.  The other shows what you see if you did start the thread and have the ability to accept one of the replies as a solution.

make it real.

can you make all the buttons line up horizontally?

Moving the Kudos button looks good! But I'm with Ray, can you move the "Accept as Solution" inline with the others? (See below)

[Laura F.]

I'll try to line up the buttons.  Keep in mind that only people that start threads see the Accept as Solution button so it's not actually visible to many people.
