Recent Topics view?
« on: January 26, 2010, 04:14:46 AM »
I usually look at the "Recent Unread Topics" view, but that's a problem when I can't stay long or something. Then when I come back a little while later, there are no threads to view.  :-\  Is there a view that lists Recent Topics? I know there's a Recent Posts view, but that jumbles posts together from various topics.

TBH I'm not sure about your terminology. I always use Show unread posts since last visit. to enter the forum and that shows all topics that have changed since I last read them. Even when I leave and come back, unless I actually went into the topic it remains unread.

If I see that page and don't view the threads and if I leave and come back, they're gone.

Hmm, do you log out or do you simply leave?

Edit: no, not even then. I just logged out (which I never do), closed the browser, re-opened it and "Curtain Call" was still a new topic.

On the occasion I have lots all the newly posted topics in the "Show Unread Posts..." Although one of those times I was using a different computer.

This has happened to me on occasion - cyberspace is messing with you. I just go to the "forum" and "view the most recent posts on the forum".

Nevermind.

They have never gone away for me. Sometimes they add up to two and even three pages  :bag: I either read them or just use the mark as read button to get a fresh start.
