    New posts

    Can we have a feature which would allow us to view "new posts" only in the subscribed forums instead of all the forums?

    I tried the advanced search - with the option selected as "view post after my last visit" and newer. but it wont show me post unless i enter some words in search box.

    There is an option for using just Sections you are subscribed to, I'm not sure if I saw that option in the Adv. Search or New Posts, I'll check....

    EDIT: Nope, sorry you still have to enter some words .
    When your thread has been resolved please edit the original post in the thread ()
    and amend "-[RESOLVED]-" to the end of the title and change the icon to , Thank you.

    When posting Code use the [VBCode]Code Here[/VBCode] tags to be able to use the code highlighting.

    There seems to be a bug. I tried it like you did and got nothing, but if I use "A week ago" it works.

    and i just wanted to see the new posts in my subscribed forums, irrespective of whether i have participated in them -- this was my "original" question.

    Sorry, I didn't read your original question.

    That's not the way search works.

    Yes, but all you need to do is look at the top items which are the newest
    and they go down to the oldest.

    Am I missing something or ???
