Link or button ?

[ghost]

Hello,

I would like to subject(submit) you a detail by the fact that it has an importance for the French translation.

It is about the links "Set active" at the bottom of columns.

In view of the importance of the irreversible action(share) which it engenders, would not it be better to replace this link by a button ?

(translate French/English by http://www.reverso.net)

Thank you

There still is the confirmation page in between the irreversible action and the click on the link, the link itself only leads to the confirmation page.

There is far more direct changes to the database in phpBB, which are links and don't even use a confirmation page, such as "mark all forums as read". I thought of this link as being similar to basically all "delete post" and "delete pm" links, which - even though they look like buttons - still are links.

So I don't think I would change the links to buttons, but if you can come up with an image similar to the button images used for deletion, reporting or quoting a post, that fits this link better, I guess we could style up the link a bit more.

(It is difficult to explain everything through an interface of translation to communicate)

To summarize, no button but possibly an image "Pictogram", ok.

I fetch an idea this way ;-)
