After setting the options on the compact list thread renderer and saving those, they are not being set. The options are not considered in the output. Opening the widget again shows that the options are back to default.
Which options are you referring to? The ones below "Compact List" (e.g. "Title Max Length", "Load More"?). Please try clearing your cache and see if it works.
He is right. I have that problem too. For example, I choose Compact list layout, and then set YES for "Show Rich Username" and save it. when I edit the widget again I see the Yes that I set is gone (nothing is selected.)
Also in layouts, when I select " List (similar to forum_view)" no options comes down to set. (I don't know if its as designed and it doesn't have any options, or its a bug)
xfrocks @Dadparvar Yeah, that one doesn't have any suboptions. Btw, the issue with suboptions not being saved have been identified and fixed. New version should be available soon.
