Depends.


Are you using the 3210, or the 3220?

One month or so of posts checked and the "lol" and "wisdom" all fall pretty much as expected. I apologise for being me! The kind that just HAS to look...........

I’ve not learned how to hover on an iPad. Was that room 101?

You’ve been watching too much back to the future

Won't work on touch pad devices. At least so far. On a computer browser if I hover over a "LOL" or "Wisdom" on a post it tells me who has left the, notification. It is interesting, and I think actually a quite valuable function.

Is it the same as ‘Hovering’ over a loo seat in fast food outlet?

Oops, I've accidentally just hit a Wow scrolling on my phone. Can I not undo that now? But you can have the Wow if you want it.

Refresh the page, and then hit Wow on that post again.

 Even hovering with the smart pen doesn't work on my Note 10+ so I'm guessing if I really care, I'm gonna have to actually use my computer. 

Seems unlikely. I will carry on in blissful ignorance.

Am I the only one how can't figure out how you see this new feature?

I am presuming that it has not been enacted as yet. Otherwise I would think that from the account home page you should be able to view LoLs etc as you can view your posts and threads.

It's done. Hover your cursor over the number next to the reactions and a list pops up.

I must admit the modmins didn't envisage that the biggest problem with this would be that the membership couldn't actually work out how to get it to show

We have to go into each individual post, hover the cursor and note down the results to answer the important question “Who’s been LOLing me”?

This is a very inefficient way of going on a witch hunt.

Tried it this morning on Android phone and all I e managed to do so far is add LOLs to already LOLed posts.

You need to do it on a computer with the cursor hover over the number.

Glad to know I'm not the only one having finger trouble.

...it massively reduces the number of value-less "+1" comments, and keeping a high valuable-content proportion is pretty much our only business.

 Monday is all full up already randomly lol’ing @randallflaggs old posts 

Save yourself the effort.  I'm pretty sure that quite a few people do that every day already.
