Nope, I've not seen a Punbb system that has that feature.

You can display topics with unread posts, but not the posts individually, in fact I tend to find such things irritating personally sinse I'd rather have all the info there in case I need to refer back to something, and just rely on page navigation to get to what I want.

Beware the grue!

Oh, that's disappointing if there isn't a more automated method to show the
most recent posts.  other forum software I have used, such as that on
http://www.burningwheel.org keeps track of read and unread posts and there's a mechanism to only see the unread ones. Ok, well, I'll work on developing
strategies.

I do similar things with hal actually, though usually there I use e to get
to the edit area of the quick reply box and then alt tab back to my own last

post so that I can read all the people who posted after me.

Beware the grue!

Hi Chris,

You don't necessarily have to read all 1,000 messages on a thread just
to get to the newest message/post. If you want to quickly get to the
bottom of a thread you can either use the h key to jump to headings,
or you can use control+end to get to the bottom of the page and use
shift+h to get to the top of the last post on a particular thread.
That's what I do and I can usually find the newest posts just by
working backwards rather than reading from the top down.

Ok, just joined audiogames.net and I am having some trouble doing things
efficiently on the forums. (fora?, I hate that plural. *smile*) Anyhow,

is
there a clean way of tracking particular topics and only hearing the new
messages since the last time I read the topic?  I don't need to read the
1,037 messages in the Swamp FPS topic each time someone adds a new
message.




In general, is there a detailed help file somewhere I can read to learn
all
the little tricks of this forum software?
