I don't know if this forum has the feature. But I was hoping that maybe you could set it up like the STS forums when you click the what's new button and all the recent post titles show up. That way we don't have to manually go through all the sections to see what has been posted in the last few hours. I know it shows the last post made for each section but that is just one post not all the recent posts.

Re: We need a latest post box
When I log into the forums, any new content is indicated by the moving icons on the left. The last column on the right is for "Last Posts" and clicking on the arrow takes me directly to the most recent comment. I've never had a problem keeping up with everyone's comments, just follow the flashing icons.

I know that but that doesn't show if 10 threads/replies were made in say 30 mins it doesn't show you the title of the thread. It just tells you the very last person that made a thread/reply. You still have to go through every section to see what everyone has been saying.

Re: We need a latest post box
ya i've visited plenty of forums that have that .... even one that uses the same forum host just a different forum version i think it was on invision or pnp anyways it would be a box up top that could be clicked on and it would simply list the topics that had been posted or replied on since last visit with a maximum of 10 latest posts so instead of going into each category you have them all under one screen to access

Right, yeah. Who wants to navigate the forums? That's a whole 60 seconds of your life you'll never get back.

Re: We need a latest post box
"View posts since last visit" is what I have been using... It's almost like what you are asking, but I think it would be cool to have a "latest post box".
