a small suggestion re: profile page - replies

[GetCarter]

Ted

It's not world shattering, but ...

I'm impressed by the way the replies to forum posts are listed 'latest at top' on the members own profile page.

It might be easy (and blimmin' useful) to:

1/ have the link to the last page of the thread rather than the top page

..and more importantly:

2/ have replies not yet viewed marked as 'new' or 'posts added'

(at the moment I never know what posts have had replies without viewing the post itself.... and I'm on two paper cups and a bit of string connection - so it takes Tuesday to do).

As I say... 'tis a tiny thing. (Well that's what Mrs Get says).

Shouldn't be a problem.

I'll give it some thought.

Are you using it to see who's replied to threads that you've started?

[GetCarter]

no - I usually tic the 'send e mail' box for that... but I often check into the profile to see the threads I've visited over the past few days - to see if there have been replies. It's kinda' the quickest way to catch up and respond.

[PetrolTed]

I'll have a think...

Isn't that what 'What's New->My Stuff' does?

Is that not what "My Info" -> "Contributions" is for?

[PetrolTed]

I think there are a variety of ways to skin this cat. They could do with being pulled together into a more obvious/intuitive place.

Blimey - never found that before (doh - only been here 4 years)... if that were colour coded to signify new posts added... then it would be totally sorted.

Although I think links from 'my profile' or 'contributions' - or both would help.
