Board Index "View New Posts"

Post by onetonf350 »

what am i doing wrong? I sign in, then go to board index, then to "view new posts". It goes to a blank screen sometimes, almost always. It does this on "view active topics" too.

Can I get a little bit more of "ME" in the monitor?

Do NOT contact tech support they wil refer you back to me.

My 'Show New Posts' works fine so not sure what the issue is. Actually I never use it since the red icons already indicate where new posts are.

Just checking in. Now I can "view new posts". Still cannot see "view active posts" but its an improvement.

Funny, I have not used that feature myself.

If headlights (bright RED topic icons) are blazing at me already, I didn't think I needed a list of cars that have lights on. :idea:

Put simply, if you see bright red icons next to topics and sub-topics those are new posts to read. The Active posts listed currently are actually private beta discussions that you're not a member of and cannot view.

EDIT: I have changed some settings and now the new / active posts options are what users may expect.
