The New Posts link is handy, though I would prefer it to apply only to the current forum.
Is it possible to have a similar link to unanswered posts?

Frankly, I'd like all searches to sort by forum. (Note that I say "Sort by forum"...this is so that I don't have to search once for each one!)
I'd also appreciate it if the bb software didn't update the entries that I haven't looked at until I tell it to. Sometimes it just takes me a while to get through all the yellow and orange threads, but it cuts me off before I get through them all, and I lose my place!
^^ Sorry. Tired; not intelligible.

It would be nie if the forum software made it possible for me to costumize this option a little. I, for example, would like only to see new posts from only two forums.
New posts of interest for me drowns in 'noise' when I see posts about Base and API and Impress, especially when I check the forum after several days.
I think I am gonna solve it for myself, by just making a few bookmarks for these forums.

I looked for a way to do that, but there is no option to sort by the number of replies.

Sort of workaround, Make a shortcut to the log in page AND set up a folder of shortcuts to each forum -- you are using Firefox of course  After going to the log in page and logging in, then open the folder to open all shortcuts. Each forum will open in a page of its own with the new or changed threads indicated.
It is necessary to log in before using the group folder or the new posts won't show in the folder pages.
Now what would be really nice would be a way to mark threads that are of interest to come back to. |

I mean a link like this:
• My settings • My subscriptions • Unread posts • Today's posts • Unanswered posts • My active topics • Mark all as read
