Unread topics

[Shorty]

Is there something on v5 that shows you all the unread topics on a forum just like the app does?

[Ryan Roos]

No, not quite in the same way that the app does. V5 will show you all of the recent threads and posts. But it doesn't filter based on you. And obviously you can view any board anywhere on the forum and see the unread topics instantly. Essentially that's the same thing, just sorted by boards.

Ah alright cool. Cause that's my favorite thing about the app. I can just see all unread topics and reply to each one really quickly. Cause sometimes I forget to look at the boards because I forget that there but be other unreads. Because the on/off icon turns off after you read one topic. So i forget. But thanks. Is there a way a plugin could be developed to only show the ones that are "new". Like I know there could, but could it make others from other pages come up pages for all the ones that are removed? Or possibly a widget that shows all recent posts on one page and then have a code that removes the ones that arent "new"? Thanks ryan

It would probably be pretty easy to make a plugin that hides any thread that isn't new from a board. It simply wouldn't show them unless they were flagged as new. That will be a good one for you to request once the coders get a hold of plugins.

But my real question is will a plugin be able to make "new" posts that are on the second page come to the first. and so on and so forth?

[Ryan Roos]

It depends how the Plugin is built. That would be slightly more complex, but I believe all the required information is available. But I'm not 100% on this one. Based on what I know it should be possible. It's one of those things that will need to be experimented with. There are so many available resources that I have trouble keeping track of everything sometimes.

That's awesome. Thanks Ryan!!!!!!
