This is one of the posts that I'd love to see the admin staff answer, but they probably won't.

Anyway, you can find some of those links in my signature.

Thanks for the quick response. Surely this would be a simple addition to the forum. ???

It's not a additional feature, it's a standard one. And it's a essential part of any forum navigation. Why they have messed about with this is beyond me.

Would be handy if they just enabled the Quick Links feature, at least that would contain most of the navigation in a dropdown box.

I saved the two links above as bookmarks in Firefox and they work fine. The first will give you all new posts that have been made since your last visit and any unread posts that you didn't open from your last visit.
The second link will give all posts from the last day. Not sure if that is 24 hours from when you hit the link or from midnight of the previous day.

I generally use the first link.

Now I feel like an idiot as I've just realised Lurkalot has given the answer in his signature, as stated in his first reply.

I'll leave my post above just in case anyone else is as slow as I am!

Thanks for taking the time in getting back to me rbarry. I've saved the link as a favourite. Just seems a shame this isnt part of the forum.

I wonder why the stated time of posts varies depending on whether we are logged in or not? Bearing in mind that in the UK we are currently on BST, the main forum index page shows the time as GMT+1 when logged in but reverts to GMT when logged out, so all post times change to one hour earlier than actually posted. Strange, or is it intended to help international visitors to the site and do they see posts in their own local time when logged in?

Now, if it worked the other way round we could find that we have submitted posts before actually writing them

I see GMT -4, which I think it wrong at the moment. UK is on BST, we are on EDT, so I thought that would maintain the usual 5 hours.
