It took me a couple of visits to figure out that the star would show me all unread posts since last visit (the way I prefer to view all forums).

I know Shave will be updating the look and feel after making everything function correctly. So far, I'm not having any trouble at all.

On forums, I like to see a list of all new posts since my last visit. That way I don't have to dig through the different categories.

With the new software, that's done by just clicking the star just under the Home/Search/Visitors bar. I attached a screenshot.

I'll be messing around with the look of the forums on Friday most likely. I tried messing with it some tonight, but this current theme is a bit more complex than I am used to and I am out of practice. This theme actually generates style sheets on the fly rather than using a fixed css file, so that's kind of a pain.

I will eventually make this place look "rustic" again. You know we love our theming around here, lol.

I thnk that once you explained why you didn't want a "like" button on the old forum.

I don't recall the reason, but it's a feature I'd like to see. It lets users acknowledge that their question was answered, without hitting the quote button and typing out a reply.

Thank you. That's what I was missing!

Are the posts all stacked with the latest listed fits in the first page now?
