    Most of you see the "Recent Topics" list on the forum homepage. We made two changes:

    1) The list now shows if you've read or not read a thread in that list.

    2) The list was increased from 10 items to 20 items.


    If 20 is too many let us know... we're debating between 10, 15 or 20.

    I like 20! And I also like seeing whether or not I've posted in a thread, but I use that list to keep up with the current postings, anyway (that other button is just too overwhelming!) [​IMG]

    ETA to report the ';posted in' indicator doesn't seem to work, I'd posted in Gopher Boy's thread and there was no dot there indicating I had.

    I thought the way it used to be was just fine. I always just scroll to the bottom and click "show recent posts" or "show unanswered posts" Now there is just more scrolling [​IMG]
