Re: Todays Posts
If I visit the site, say every two days, I just visit threads that interest me and look for 'last post 2/3 days ago' and I've not missed anything.
I don't think that's why threads die, without sounding harsh (and I've killed off many threads in my time) it's probably just a lack of interest.
That said I don't read every forum and every new post and I try not to over-post myself (in one go anyway) as that can kill off threads.

My whole point was that considering most posters who contribute tend to sign in between every 2/3 days, the 'live' posts should be visible for that amount of time so threads have longer to survive.

My point was that I would have thought it would have been more convenient and easier to keep up with different threads if say the last 3 days posts were displayed?. That's only my personal opinion and other posters may feel differently...........thanks anyway

Re: Todays Posts
Today's Posts will bring back all posts in the last 24 hours from when you log in so if you last logged in 24 hours ago Today's Posts and whats new should be the same, however if you choose What's New and your last login is more than 24 hours it will return all new posts since your last visit. Also if you log in more than once a day selecting What's New will just bring back the new posts since your last visit and not all the posts within the last 24 hours. I use What's New all the time and having checked both Today's Posts and What's New are working as expected for me.

Re: Todays Posts
To be honest I didn't know there was a difference either. Ive always gone to 'today's posts' but now, just having had a go at clicking 'today's posts' it is defaulting to 'what's new'. Is there a bug?

Re: Todays Posts
One problem I've noticed is if you accedently close a window with DYR & go onto the site again all the "since you last logged on" information will be lost.
