Tips for the new forum software

Unread post by Tim Green »

  • The new forum software installed on 19 June 2010 has much more efficient tools for tracking new and unanswered topics. Instead of scanning forums for new posts use the "Unread Posts", "Unanswered Posts", "New Posts" and "Active Topic" links at the top of the main forum list.
  • You no longer need to check all new posts in a single session. The forum will now remember which posts you have not read between sessions, allowing you to check back again later.
  • Check out your user control panel sessions in the header at the top of the forum. You will find quite a few interesting new options, also for managing how other users' posts are displayed for you.
