Recent Posts Suggestion

Kalcium

I have an idea for the "Recent Posts" section at the bottom of the home page which would prevent it from showing 20 posts and 3 threads.
If its not too much trouble and if most people agree thats its a good idea then how about if we had it show only different threads? So if 3 people post in 1 thread right after each other then it would only show the most recent post of that thread and then show the next most recently posted in thread?

Use the "unread posts" option on the drop down menu - or "ALL unread posts". That filters things so you only see what's new for you.

That works but if you wanna see if something different has come up in a thread you've already read but haven't posted in then it wont come up in unread posts or unread replies...

Unread posts shows up any new post in any thread, whether you've posted to that thread or not.

Oh ok, I thought if you'd read the thread it wouldn't come up, but I guess then it would be unread threads not posts ?
