    04/2018 - DT - Active Topics

    DT:

    I maybe am missing it...

    Does our forum have an active threads link?

    I use that on my usa sugar boards and is really a good thing to use.

    My problem with ISOC is todays posts doesnt show me threads 3 days ago....

    the NEW posts doesnt work for me as I want to see an old topic that hasnt been replied to a few days ago so it wouldnt come up in NEW posts....

    Can you put that next to Todays Post?

    We don't see them because we look at every post.

    If I replied to it, I'd go to "My Profile" and search my posts.

    That said, I use "Active Topics" on Happy Bachelor Forum, and it's very useful.
    I'm still "Just A Lurker."

    Do you have a link to the forum you mentioned, PM if private. If they run vBulletin software I can do your active links.

    That works beautifully! I tried it, I've bookmarked it in my ISOC bookmark folder -- Thanks!

    If someone wants a longer span, they can change it to "...&days=8..." -- or 10 -- or whatever.

    It starts with the guy doing the work. If he is happy and the owner is happy, then we have succeeded.


    I have no idea what this software can do. I am constantly amazed at what DT makes happen here.
