Suggestion How about a new button?

[Bob3]

I don't visit SB every day, so when I go read PMs the "new posts" button only displays only a handful of new posts.
How about some new dropdown items on the "quick links" button that is for "today's posts" and "last 48 hrs".
The "last visit" (not counting the present/current one) would be a handy one as well, though I'm not sure if that can be done using the current board software.
The Deco Stop has things set up similarly, might want to check 'em out. It's under the "quick links" dropdown menu.

Good idea! Or even perhaps taking it a few steps ahead and including a 3-5 day post history?

Are you guys serious? I mean - (not trying to flame anyone) but really... there's 6 pages of new posts from the last 3 hours. A 48 hour history would be about 30 pages long (or MORE!)

I agree ...and while you're at it, please add a "New Posts" button at the bottom of the page so that you can scroll through an entire page and then go back to the New Posts screen without having to scroll all the way back up to the top.

The additional "New Posts" button could be place right next to the current "Reply" button.

Thanks in advance,

Perhaps now, but there are days/times when the "new posts" returns a mere handful of posts based on the server's refresh time.

The current setup on the blue menubar offers you (under the heading ScubaBoard v, subheading Active topics) the following selections:

• Last Day
• Last 2 Days
• Last 3 Days
• Last 4 Days
• Last 5 Days

Pressing [Home] on your keyboard will return you to the top of the page (without scrolling) where you'll find [New Posts].

Feel free to create your private link using the following URL: http://www.scubaboard.com/search.php?&do=getdaily&days=5.
Changing the number at the end of the URL determines the number of days you're searching in the past.

Will that be all gentlemen?

Instead of them adding it to Quick Links, you can use that exact feature currently found under the ScubaBoard dropdown.
