Digital Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 So, some of you might of noticed that I have been playing with the blocks in the sidebars on the forum page over the last few days. I am trying to find a display that brings newer content up for users. How do you prefer to find content on forums to respond to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulSonny Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Each time I visit the forum I just click on the Unread Content button and that brings up any unread topics or posts. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
halichu Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 I like having a button where you can just click on "Unread posts" and see the latest posts from the last time you visited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kami Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 Echoing the same, I just go visit the "unread posts" page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pepper-Head Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 The Unread/New Content button is the best! I like it to have a fairly prominent or easy-to-get-to location. (Some forums hide it and I don't know why ;-; ) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callum Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 Agreed with everyone else here that's the button i always use! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hare Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 I prefer to look at 'latest replies,' stuff I haven't read or just the most recent. If that's not available, I look at the popular ones. Also I'm lazy and won't click on anything usually unless both of those aren't viewavle available at a glance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The unread content link isn't easily noticeable in mobile. It's the document icon in the top right. It actually does a better job at telling you what people have posted then the two blocks I have up.

Syntax Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 I too often use Unread Content or something similar, although I definitely wouldn't mind a 'hot topic' or 'new featured' type of thing to highlight content from some boards over others.
