Request: What's New link in Footer - robdrimmie - 03-11-2019 My normal flow is to go to the What's New page and open tabs to each thread with new posts from there. Every now and then though, especially in the cases where there's only one updated thread, I open it in the same tab. To get back to What's New I need to get to the top of the page and click the link. It would be very convenient if there were a link to What's New on the bottom of the page somewhere, and the footer strikes me as a fairly good spot for that. This is the lowest of all possible priorities, if it is even possible. RE: Request: What's New link in Footer - Spokes - 03-11-2019 That makes a ton of sense. I'm out of town right now for March break, so it might have to wait till next week, but great idea. PM me if I forget RE: Request: What's New link in Footer - jeffster - 03-11-2019 (03-11-2019, 04:59 PM)Spokes Wrote: That makes a ton of sense. I actually would say I miss the old format: The reasoning, I am not always seeing the "new" posts. Anything regarding the LRT isn't even there. RE: Request: What's New link in Footer - Spokes - 03-11-2019 What do you mean by old format? What has changed RE: Request: What's New link in Footer - embe - 03-12-2019 (03-11-2019, 10:46 PM)Spokes Wrote: What do you mean by old format? What has changed My old view had a sidebar column with the most recent posts, I don't see how to activate it though. Where is the "What's New" link at the top?

What has changed What theme are you using? The FocusResponsive and Focus2 themes both have a prominent "What's New" link in a menu bar just below the title bar. The default MyBB theme has some sort of new posts link in a similar spot. RE: Request: What's New link in Footer - tomh009 - 03-12-2019 Yes. I think Rob's point is that it disappears as you scroll down. However, hitting the Home key brings it up so that's OK for me. RE: Request: What's New link in Footer - Spokes - 03-13-2019 Once it's added in the footer this should resolve the issue The only thing that's changed is the main home page no longer saying how many new posts there are. RE: Request: What's New link in Footer - Spokes - 04-02-2019 What's New has been added to the Quick Links part of the footer. Give it a try and let me know if there are any issues. RE: Request: What's New link in Footer - bgb_ca - 04-02-2019 Would be nice on mobile as well RE: Request: What's New link in Footer - Spokes - 04-02-2019 Working on mobile/footer issues RE: Request: What's New link in Footer - tomh009 - 04-02-2019 Looks good! RE: Request: What's New link in Footer - robdrimmie - 04-05-2019 It works great, Spokes. Thanks so much! |
