What's new

[Vincent Kars]

Obvious this list topics with new posts.
The moment you visit one, it disappears from the list.
Inconvenient if you want to respond later
I rather have a simple list of recent postinstead of the current dynamic one

This thread just disappeared from the new posts. I can't remember under which subforum it is listed. Can someone please help me so I can find it again!

Vincent,

If you use the "back" button on your browser, the "What's New" posts will remain on the list, but will no longer show a "new posts" indicator to the left of the thread title in that list, if you have been to the last page of that thread. As long as you use the back button, you'll be able to return to the thread you were viewing. If you hit the "What's New" button again, it will refresh the list and eliminate those threads that you just viewed.

If I have a quick glance at the forum at lunchtime at work and want to reply at home, the back button won’t help me…

Mojave sums up my experience quite nicely

I bookmark the following:

http://www.whatsbestforum.com/search.php?do=getdaily

and it gets me all the new posts in the last 24hrs.

Logging off and then clicking "What's New?" will always show threads in order of most recent post, regardless of prior view. Not ideal, but.....

I'll PM Amir and see if there's a way to "flag" threads for easier return.

The best way is to merely subscribe to the Forum in which that thread lies. It looks like a small brown Nike Swoosh which when you click on it will subscribe you to that forum wherein lies the thread.

It would also help if each person remembers the forum in which the thread resides

Short of that Gary's idea also works but come on guys. Take some responsibility and remember the forum of the thread you posted. It's just not that difficult

clicking one of your favorites and then clicking back on the WB website resets everything. Then the "new" tab works

I have some sympathy for Vincent as I have had to go hunting around for a post just the same. If we added a button with the shortcut the Gary had, does that do the job?

Personally I like that idea, so yes Amir!
