Godday Freediver,

Why dont you change the "Newest 20 Board Topics" to say 50 or 100.

I usually go there first every time I come online to see whats been happening, I often then us view list of 50 to see more if I havent been online for a long period (eg overnight).

I seldom go searching through the boards unless trying to find a particular topic or am bored sh1tless.

Just a thought!

I think you can edit the URL directly, then bookmark it.

That's pretty much all that was on there anyway. I had always considered it a federal politics forum anyway.

Ripper I didnt know that either.

What I was suggesting was you can (I think) make the one that shows the latest 20 when you click in the forum, show 50 or 100 etc, which would bring up that number as a starting point without the user having to fart around.

Thats what I thought.

50 or 100 would be way better if others on here are like me and spend most of their time looking in that area to see whats changing etc!

I think you guys are talking about setting your own,

I am suggesting changing the Forum page setting to show 50 or 100 most recent automatically

You are not listening freediver.

I know one can do as you show in that link.

BUT

I think the Forum Home page should show 50 or 100 recents down the bottom thats all, so you can monitor lots of topics and easily scroll up to the boards to start a new topic for example

It is changeable in Admin I am sure!
