Board Index options for reading posts

Postby Jayell » Wed Dec 02, 2009 3:50 pm

Ron .. I'm a little confused as to how things work .. starting from the Board Index page.
2-3 times a day I go to the Board Index .. and choose 'View new posts.' I like to read EVERYTHING and have always assumed that this option accomplished that. But when I choose 'View unread posts,' I find posts from the previous 24 hours that never showed up on the 'View new posts' selection. Shouldn't any new posts shown up there? Or do they only remain on the 'View new posts' for a short period? .. or ..? I just hate to miss anything :(

If "not missing anything" is your goal (that's my way as well - everyone navigates differently), then use the "Show active topics" link. All the unread active topics will be identified and when done reading the latest post, there's a link just below the last post that will take you back to the active topics list and you'll notice that when you read them, the indicator will turn to being read.

I'm still not quite sure how "View new posts" does its magic as I've never really looked into it in detail, but "Active topics" should do what you want. Every post that you haven't read (and even read) will show up in that list.
