    I have come across 3 NMS users now who didn't know about the 'active topics' button at the top of the forum page.

    If you click this button it will show only threads that you have not already read.

    I think its becasue mini2 works differently that some people don't know about the button. I'm sure most of you use it, but for those who don't, try it. It will improve your life!

    Sleepy - the Active Topics button lists the threads which have been posted on since your last visit - irrespective if you've read them or not :clown:

    Still a great button though so defo worth reminding people about it.

    Yes WUL... So if a post has been posted, since your last visit, you wont have read it yet! CORRECT? So active topics lists only threads which you have not read (I actually meant replies you havn't read)

    AT only shows threads which have changed since the time you select from the menu.

    Actally as much as I hate doing it Sleepy I've got to back Wul up on this. If you visit the site, someone can post while you're there, you can read it then leave the site and it'd still show up in your active topics as it takes it's last visit time from the time you visit the site, not the time you leave it.

    Now I'm going for a shower after having to agree with Wul. Ick!!!
