    "new posts" and read posts disappearing

    my favorite way to navigate forums is to hit the "new posts" and catch up on threads. and a lot of times i want to revisit a recently read "new posts" thread, but the way the "new threads" feature works here, it's gone for good since it's read and no longer considered new.

    on every other forum i've been to, the "new threads" feature keeps everything, even the read ones, as long as they're posted within the defined time period. is it possible to have that feature enabled on my settings? or is it a site-wide feature?

    If you use the "quick links" drop down under the forum tab and select "today's posts" I think you'll get what you're after.
    Good luck,

    but that requires an extra click! oh no! ;-)

    thanks for the tip, didn't know that was there.

    I keep a bookmark of the link to "today's posts" in the bookmark toolbar in the chrome browser. Additional hint: if you delete the text in the bookmark description it will just display it as the hammock forum icon, one click and you don't even have to scroll to the top of the page.

    Hope that makes sense.

    ah i see the parameter now in the URL. new posts and today's posts are similar but using different parameters, getnew versus getdaily. i've bookmarked the getdaily parameter to show everything new, read and unread. i guess on the other forums i visit it's the other way around.
