jimzdat Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 Many forum software packages allow a "View Posts Since Last Visit" option, instead of just "Today's" topics--is this something missing in the UBB software, or just not turned on? I may be in the minority, but it's kind of a pain to try and wade thru every section of the forum when I go out of town for a few days, be nice if I could just click on a link to see everything I missed--might be a few pages, but at least they would be all together. I know that both Snitz and phpBB forums offer it, don't know about UBB--but UBB can be converted to phpBB fairly easily--just don't know what our server's capabilities are. Just wondering, Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeromio Posted February 15, 2003 Share Posted February 15, 2003 The "Since last visit" feature is really, really nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLKMGK Posted February 15, 2003 Share Posted February 15, 2003 Yeah, but I miss the Today's Active Topics list too. I cannot always check in every day and like to look at the latest new stuff for the day... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeromio Posted February 16, 2003 Share Posted February 16, 2003 You can always just do a search previous "1 Day".... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueovalz Posted February 16, 2003 Share Posted February 16, 2003 I think I like the new site. I've not had time to play with it yet, but like BLKMGK said, I miss the old "Today's active topics" list. At work I could have it pulled up all the time and chime in whenever I thought I could help. The biggest thing I miss is the visibility of the first few lines of the latest postings. I could usually get an idea real fast if this was something that I could contribute to or not. Now I will need to open each topic to read the last postings (unless I'm not up to speed with the new features). And a work I won't have time to do this. Anyway, the site has a good look to it.

pparaska Posted February 21, 2003 Share Posted February 21, 2003 I miss the "today's posts" function as well. But that'd probably be a big mod to the phpbb software. I guess Dan could ask for it in the Mods forum over there. I tried playing with the search engine to use the "1 Day" option, but couldn't find a search string that would return everything.
