Unread posts in the last day/week
« on: November 16, 2010, 11:58:07 pm »
Would work better, as soldat forums is set as my homepage, and whenever I open firefox to use it for other things, any 'unread posts since last visit' wont show up later on.

I'm sure you have the time and skills to do it, jrgp.

I'd like to see something different too, and how THIS will work. What exactly falls into 'ACTIVE TOPICS' any way? Because not every new post or newly/currently active topic goes there. I usually only check that and I'll miss stuff a lot...

There is link "All unread topics" written in black. I use it with "Show unread topic since last visit" and it works for me flawlessly. Anyway, we could use a better system.

Yeah but the All unread topics doesn't seem to work for me most of the time.

I'm willing to write a real active topics page from scratch. It just needs to display topics that were posted in over the past day or so? Id implement the drop down menu that let you pick the time frame, like with the old-old forums.

It lists threads with new posts since your last visit, and is exactly the functionality we had even back on the old pre-SMF forums from the Styx days.
