Nice.

Does it do a "go to the last post that you read within that thread" when you click on the link?

I think that's what it's doing??? If it is - nice!

If I click what's new last 14 days, should it show me my replies back to 4th Jan (ish). I seem to be going back as far as 9th?

It's really fast. Excellent how quickly you can scroll back. This speed gets round my previous observations Ted.

Not currently, but when the remainder of the code is rolled out it will do that.

That may be because the new data was only recorded from 9th onwards.

Ted,

Absolutly *love* the fact it knows what I have and haven't read.

The best system I've ever seen on a BBS - well done!

Must say, sorry to be -ve, but I preferred the old one.

Whilst I do like the new one, its lacking the ease of viewing that the old one had..

If I could make a few suggestions... show the forum name on there somewhere.. I used to use the mystuff to initially see if anyone had replied, but secondarily as a link to the forums that I frequented (and as such posted in) most often.

the timeframe thing I can get around by changing bookmarks.. suppose looking back on what I've put, its not that much really

Ted, would it be possible to show which forum each thread is in? I use the "MyStuff" page as my homepage and use the links to specific forums from there. Other may do the same I guess.


Maybe... I'll see what other feedback I get.
I liked this functionality too, so another vote from me

Just noticed one funny - if I click on a thread with 20 posts listed in "My Stuff", it takes me to page 2 which has no posts.

Hmmn that is strange, I am getting the same and it is also on a thread with 20 posts, its like it is trying to take you too early to a page that has not been created yet.

This is the post (still only 1 page of it):
www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&t=236140

but this is the link I get to it in "my topics" (I am guessing the p=2 at the end means it is trying to take it to page 2):
www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&t=236140&p=2

Don't know if you did this on purpose or not Ted, but the little folder icon on the left of each topic no-longer indicates a locked thread with a padlock, just a regular folder.

Just noticed it.

That wasn't an intentional omission but it may have benefits

Ted, I would just remove locked threads . . . 'My Topics' is doubled now in de bar above . . . and yes, the folders on the right have no meaning anymore, 'YGpost' is the same as bold text . . . The trashbin could be handy at the rightside at all times. Sometimes I just get bored with a topic - all been said and repeated etc. - and I want to get rid of it. My list are too long anyway :P but this could be a handy tool to shorten up a bit.
