Greetings,

 

Is there a way to setup a link so that I start on a page with just the new links since my last visit?

 

When I try to use the CP to do that I get a search ID page and when I use that, it is invalid at my next visit.

 

 

Thanks

Thanks for your replies.

 

However, I'm lazy.

 

I would like to put a link on my desktop that would bring up TL and it would already be on those pages. When I click the links you referred to they simply create a link that is a search string with a number assigned.

 

Once that number expires, the link no longer works.

 

There has to be a static URL that links to this stuff???

 

Thanks

So basically a page listing just latest and new posts?

 

 

it would be alright if you have this link at the top of the page, with default to 50 threads

Traders Laboratory - Latest Forum Activity

 

people can look at the topics at a glance... and choose whatever that catches their eyes.

 

 

about this page:

http://www.traderslaboratory.com/forums/

 

the design is clean, and the categories are nicely structured,

but difficult to find threads because they are buried in another layer.

 

also, when people do not see what catches the eyes, they tend to move away instead of dig deeper.

Ive set the default to 50. Still working on rewriting the url and will look to implement this in a more convenient area. Thanks for the suggestions Tams.

You're lucky that James takes all suggestions into consideration, incl changing something that is not broken. If moving your big, heavy mouse to the top right corner of the screen is asking too much, then you decide if it's worth your time to spend about 2.3 seconds doing that.

Thanks for this link placement...

I hope this Recent Activity page, with all the stimulating topics, will prompt more discussions and participations.

The fact that James is so quick to respond and so helpful in many ways, is one of the reasons this forum stands out from the rest.

 

But I think we shouldn't waste his time with asking for a load of little "nice-to-have" features :)

Thanks fw :) As long as I can handle it with my limited amount of programming knowledge then i dont mind cause I also learn something new. If its beyond the scope of my abilities, thats when it gets costly and could take some time.

No reason to be critical.

 

This was simply a question and not a request to change.

I thought maybe I had missed a way to do this that was obvious.

 

FYI: I put a shortcut button on the Firefox toolbar for TL (as I do for all my most favorite sites). All of the other buttons take me to the exact page I want to start my daily routine. If this could be done with TL it would just make it easier to navigate a site I enjoy.

 

Have a great day.
