New Messages Across All Forums?

The new 43Folders site looks great, as does the new 43Folders forum. But...how can I get a single list of all the new messages posted since I last accessed the forum?

The old forum software had a "Show New Posts" link, which showed all new messages across all the various forums. With the new software, I can see the new messages on a forum-by-forum basis, but I can't see any way of viewing all the new messages across every forum.

I'm sure I could use RSS for this, but prefer to come to the site to see what's changed. Is there any way to quickly see the new messages -- or do I have to go through each of the seventeen forums one by one?

Thanks,

  • Erik.

New Messages

Hi Mivok,

http://www.43folders.com/tracker

Perfect -- thank you! Now, as Merlin says, if we could only get a link to that page directly from the main forum.

By the way, it seems that the site gets confused about what constitutes a "new" message. I keep getting old messages marked as "new" -- some of them are weeks or even years old, but they keep getting marked as "new" despite repeated visits to the forums. Hopefully that hiccough can get sorted out as well...

  • Erik.

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
