Looking for posts (Past 24 Hours, Past 48 Hours, Past Week)?

[eljeffe]

I've had some requests for this. I will work to update the "New Posts" menu item to add the following:

Past 24 Hours (http://www.bmwlt.com/forums/search.php?do=getdaily&days=1&showposts=1)

Here is the URL that you can bookmark if you would like: http://www.bmwlt.com/forums/search.php?do=getdaily&days=1&showposts=1

Past 48 Hours (http://www.bmwlt.com/forums/search.php?do=getdaily&days=2&showposts=1)

Here is the URL that you can bookmark if you would like: http://www.bmwlt.com/forums/search.php?do=getdaily&days=2&showposts=1

Okay, for now, I have placed the links for posts made in the Past 24 Hours, Past 48 Hours, and Past 7 Days under the "Quick Links" menu.

Happy Reading!

It's not under "Quick Links" - it's under "New Activity".

It was under "Quick Links" earlier today. I thought that Firefox was throwing me for a loop. The quick links bar was getting long, maybe that is why it has been moved.

I figured out how to turn New Posts into a dropdown menu. So I changed it to New Activity and gave the option of looking for new threads since the last visit and threads updated in the past 24 hours, along with post listings for 24 hours, 48 hours, and 7 days.

OK, I see it under New Activity, but how do we limit it to just the LT forum?? I'm getting new posts from all forums. Also, in the main forum, I get a nice list of topics but in the links you provided, I get the posts with last comment, etc., below them, taking up much of the screen for no value. If you can guide me on how to get the "Last 7 days, Last Day" etc., filters to just display a list of posts, I'll be in heaven!

Thanks for all your hard work on the new and old sites!!!!!!

Dave an easy way to do it in one forum is to open that forum (in this case the LT forum) and then hit the "last post" link which will sort all the post in that from newest to oldest so you can just boogie down the list.

Great job, Jeff! I especially like the "Since last visit" choice! That way I don't have to use extra brain cells (which seem to be increasingly at a premium in my aging noggin!) trying to remember what I've read and haven't... ;)
