I'm not a big user of online forums, being a regular of just one other prior to joining here. I'm just curious how to keep up with the activity here. The other one I'm used to has a New Post link which let me see the most recent posts. I know there is the recent topics section, and I see the notifications of stuff I'm subscribed to and other things chosen in the settings.

How do you guys suggest as the optimal way to keep on top of things. For example on the other site I could click a Settings link which would show me any new posts on topics I had posted to or started. For new stuff there was the New Topics link, and finally and activity stream that showed all posts. Any advice would be appreciated.

Hey High Tide,

Click on "View New Content" near the top (a few inches down) of the right side of the main homepage.

Yup right on point, I'm just throwing this out there if Anybody has pull on this site, I would love to see a "mark all read" key when you check new content, if you or anybody else could point me in the right direction to introduce this thought to a mod or admin! Thank you! Happy Holidaze!!

 
Thats already done, raphael:

Under Forums, then View New Content, on left hand side click: "Content I have not read".

You'll only get the threads, you guessed it, that you have not yet read...

Re-click another option if you want to re-read something...

Aaaaah. Now I see it sitting there disguised as something unimportant. Thanks for the heads up, no telling how long I would've gone without noticing it. Not that I'm dumb or anything, I can pour water from a bucket if the instructions are on the bottom.

I totally see that and thank you, but what I am regarding to is after you click on view new content, is there a key that you can click on that will erase em even with out reading them ( mark all read ) button

Having experimented with IP Board software on my web host a bit, this is, to the best of my knowledge, a software related issue and not something that admin can change. It's a feature the software simply lacks, but isn't a bad idea to suggest to the manufacturer for future revisions.

Gotcha thank you very much @Jewey

 
How can I just click one button and get a free order delivered to my house within the hour?

Where on this site can I find such feature? I've looked for hours but can't find the right link or page.

Maybe Jewy could chime in. He knows a lot about this kind of stuff, I think.

Thanks in advance,

Slammer

Ok, very funny Soldier, give me back my Xanax. Jokes over.

Good luck with that, it's probably one of those things hard to detect. Even harder than the View New Content sign. Kind of like white font on a white background, which I use to cuss people under my posts. You would be surprised how it can help you rant without others knowing you're even mad.

Good Luck and Happy Holidays Slammer!

I'm sure you knew that, but if you are like me you may have forgotten. /default_smile.png

  1. T @ Tinyfishnemo: Hope everyone has a good and safe weekend.
  2. T @ tylerderrden: Dunno
  3. S @ soupson: What happened to chem genie?
  4. D @ drdrizzy13: LSU is trash and has always been trash but a night game in death valley is unlike anything I've experienced. Except the first game back to the superdome reopened after Katrina destroyed it. Everybody was crying and drunk as shit lol. All time favorite in person sports moment ever.
  5. M @ meepmoopmeep: Kiffin is a traitor and he and LSU deserve each other since they’re both complete trash
  6. D @ drdrizzy13: yea he's a joke lol. Can't stand him.
  7. L @ Layne_Cobain: You know who rly sucks…lane kiffin 😂 dude is all that’s wrong with college sports or at least a big chunk of it…and he lied about being told he could still coach ole miss in the playoffs
  8. D @ drdrizzy13: Hey at least Ole Miss got in. I can't stand LSU. They really sucked this year.
  9. M @ meepmoopmeep: as an A&M fan I’m content with us missing the SECCG for that reason. Georgia about to fuck Alabama up
  10. D @ drdrizzy13: Yeah I agree if bama loses I think they are out. That would be 3 losses. I don't see a 3 loss team getting in this year.
  11. L @ Layne_Cobain: Yeah that’s why sark was pleading his case about that Texas shouldn’t be punished for scheduling a non conference game against the best team and losing if they hadn’t done that they’d probably be in but oh well way it goes there’s always gonna be a few teams who get robbed or feel they got robbed even with a 12 team playofff…if bama loses to Georgia I’d think they’d be out but who knows
  12. D @ drdrizzy13: Alabama also lost to Florida State pretty bad. Whom Florida beat. I just think if they didn't decide to play ohio state the first game. They would be in with 2 losses instead of Alabama.
  13. M @ meepmoopmeep: @drdrizzy13 Texas lost to Florida of all teams, they weren’t heading for the playoffs anyways imo. At least not this year
  14. D @ drdrizzy13: Texas is offically out of the playoffs they didn't make the top 12. I do wish they were in it. They showed up against Texas AM. But there fatal flaw was scheduling Ohio State for their opening. Which would have been great if they won but they are a 3 loss team now.
  15. L @ Layne_Cobain: Yeah idk about arch I could see him staying with Sark for another year but if he plays rly well in the playoff who knows that is if they get in
  16. D @ drdrizzy13: Man a lot of Saints fan want Arch but I think he said he is playing another year. I would take him probably. But if Texas AM QB comes out or Ohio State's I think you gotta take one if your picking top 2.
  17. L @ Layne_Cobain: Is the qb class supposed to be stacked or thin for draft in April I follow college ball but I can’t think right now I think there’s def at least a few high potential qb declaring
  18. D @ drdrizzy13: Right now I believe we pick 2nd. ATM.
  19. D @ drdrizzy13: At first I figured he might be able to do something but our position players suck. We are playing a rookie QB. O-line sucks. It needs to be blown up. I hope we tank for the first pick
  20. L @ Layne_Cobain: Hopefully you guys maybe find a solid qb option in the draft you should end up with a very good pick
