Obviously I don't know if these are in the beta or not, but I'll throw them up here as a request...

I'd like quick menu/button options to "New Posts" and "Mark All Forums Read". These are the two options I use most in order to keep up with threads.

This is something I would also be interested in.

Is new posts not the purpose of the home page (recent and participated lists?) and for mark all forums as read, yep noted and will put that in

 

[Jay Bennett]

Oh you posted this before getting the beta sorry! Yeah hopefully the home page of forums fills in half of your request?

I think Recent for New Posts works quite well. Though maybe a way to easily spot the topic title would help, another colour different from the blue for the last poster/time&date.

And a Jump to Last would complement Jump to First too when viewing threads.

Are you going to be albe to keep up with all the suggestions?

 

[Jay Bennett]

Jump to last is there (it's the button on the right in threads, we decided it would be heavily used so put it there). Absolutely can't go with a different colour as it breaks the design rules but I will increase the padding to make the titles easier to spot thanks

Ok, I missed that. Maybe an idea to have them displayed the same for consistency, either rhe icon or text. I think both would be used quite often, especially in long threads.

I'll take a vote on that one, sound off with your thoughts guys

Yeah, I think Recent Posts will be fine in lieu of New Posts... Considering I always Mark All as Read before leaving, it's essentially the same.

How far back does "Recent" go?

it's the most recently posted in 20 threads, whatever/whenever those are
