Function to keep track of new post and thread

[lnicky88]

It is possible to implement a function that let the user to keep track of all the new post and new thread since their last visit...?

They should be marked as "unread forums". Other than that, I don't know enough about coding to create something like that, no.

I thought that something like that was already implemented. I can see in the forum overview which forum has new posts/threads since my last visit, so I'm not sure what exactly your missing or searching for Inicky. And it is like this in every forum that I'm a member of.

Sorry Cireus, i just suggest.... It doesn't matter if you can't do it... Maybe there are others that know...

Ultima, do you mean the Host Link Updates....? Other than that i don't see any... Please give me your guidance...

[Cireus]

It's okay, don't apologize. I think I know what you mean; an option to show all updated threads. Unfortunately, the last time I tried to install something like that, I don't think that it ever worked right.

I dont know about anyone elses but that feature worked fine for me Cireus. With no problems for me in any way. Just a note.

[Cireus]

And that mod is outdated and I've not found one to try, anyway. It never did work right for me and cause massive queries on the database, besides.

Did you try the "New Posts" option? It will give you all the new posts on the forum for the last 2 days.

It will give you something like this:

If you click on the arrow pointing down beside the title of the thread, it will bring you to the first unread post (in the limit of the said 2 days). But keep in mind that if a user edit his/her post, it wont show with "New Posts".
