Forum Community
The macOS version has the "櫻佑旅遊🌸航空旅遊資訊網" forum (forum.yucts.com) built in, with the same account as the website. You can browse without signing in; posting, replying, liking, and chat require signing in.
Browsing the Forum
Forum in the sidebar has three columns:
- Boards: boards by section, with thread counts. To hide a board you don't want to see, Control-click it and choose "Hide from List"; use "Customize" next to the hidden-board count at the bottom to bring boards back. You can also choose "Explore" → "Customize Boards…" in the toolbar.
- Threads: unread threads have a dot, and each thread shows its prefix and reply count; pinned threads are at the top. Sort by "Latest" (most recent replies first) or "Popular" (most replies first), and click "Load More Threads" at the bottom for more.
- Content: all the posts in the thread, with each author's avatar, name, title, and identity badges, plus the view count. Click "Load more replies" to keep reading.
In a narrower window, the forum switches to two columns and the boards move into a toolbar menu. Use ↑ ↓ to move through the board and thread columns.
Thread & Post Actions
- A thread's "More Actions": "Copy Link", "Report Thread", "Ignore This User", and "Open in Browser". Moderators also have "Featured" / "Unfeature".
- Control-click a post for "Report Post" and "View profile".
- "Share" in the toolbar shares the thread.
Starting a Thread (Sign-in Required)
In a board, click "New Thread" (⌘N) in the toolbar:
- Check the board under "Posting to" and choose a "Thread Type" (depending on the board, for example General Discussion, Q&A, or Feature Article).
- In boards that use prefixes, you must choose a "Prefix (Required)"; the app doesn't pick one for you.
- Enter the "Title" and the body.
- Optionally add:
- Poll: the question and options, how many votes each person gets, when it closes automatically, whether people can change their vote, and whether results are visible before voting.
- Tags (comma separated): whether you can add new tags depends on your member permissions.
- Attachments: click "Add attachment" or drag files into the editor (images, videos, or PDFs, up to 20 MB each; images are uploaded after their metadata is removed).
- "Notify Me of Replies".
- Click "Post" (⌘Return). If you press Esc or click Cancel after writing something, the app asks whether to discard it.
In some boards, new threads are reviewed by a moderator and become visible to others after approval.
Replying & Liking (Sign-in Required)
- Type in "Reply to this thread…" below the thread and click "Reply" or press ⌘Return to send. You can add attachments too. In some boards, replies are reviewed by a moderator first.
- Click "Like the first post" to like the thread's first post, and click again to remove your like. Posts show how many likes they have.
- You can't reply to a closed thread or in a board where you don't have permission to reply.
Reporting & Ignoring
- Report: choose a reason, optionally add details (up to 2,000 characters), and send. You can report threads, posts, chat messages, and check-ins.
- Ignore This User: once you ignore someone, their threads and replies are no longer shown. To stop ignoring them, go to Settings → Account → Ignored List.
- If you aren't signed in, reporting or ignoring takes you to sign in.
Explore: Media, Resource Center & Member Rankings
The "Explore" menu in the forum toolbar:
- Media (sign-in required): browse the forum's photos, videos, and albums by Latest, Albums, Categories, and Featured, and filter by type and sort order. You can like and comment on media. Uploading media and creating albums aren't available on the Mac.
- Resource center: browse resources, ratings, version history, and reviews, and write a review. Downloads and purchases open the website in your browser, where your permissions are checked.
- Member rankings (sign-in required): the website's member rankings and today's birthdays (only members whose birthday is public).
Chat (Private Messages, Sign-in Required)
On the left of Chat in the sidebar is your list of conversations; Chat in the sidebar shows the number of unread conversations.
- New Chat (⌘N): search for a member by name (one character finds members with exactly that name; two or more find names that start with it). If you already have a one-to-one conversation with them, it opens; otherwise, enter a title and a message and click "Send".
- Search: "Search conversations and members" filters your conversations and also finds members to chat with.
- Organizing conversations: Control-click a conversation to "Pin conversation". "More Actions" at the top of a conversation has "Starred", "Mark as Read", and "Leave conversation" (you can choose to accept or ignore future messages).
- Messages: press Return to send and ⌥Return for a new line; you can add attachments. Control-click a message to reply, copy it, copy its link, pin it, or report it (each conversation has a limit on pinned messages).
- At the top of a conversation, the pinned-messages menu lists pinned messages, and "Conversation Info" shows the participants.
Forum Profiles & Business Cards
Click an author's avatar or name, or your own name at the bottom of the sidebar, to open a forum profile:
- The avatar, name, identity badges, title, and location, plus counts of messages, reaction score, and followers (click one to see threads, the full profile, or the follow lists).
- Actions: "Send Message" (opens the conversation in Chat), "Follow", "Ignore This User", and "Report user".
- Content: activity, threads, media, albums, and achievements (some content requires signing in or isn't shown because of the member's privacy settings).
- Your own profile has a business card: a member card and a QR code for your profile (flip it with ← → or the Space bar). You can share the card image, copy your profile link, or export the card image. The card shows only what's public on the forum.
