    Far easier to read the other forum as the text wrap works properly and the interface is much slicker (in particular the drop down for quick access functions).

    Let me know if you have any more questions as I don't mind tinkering with it.

    Im going to try and re-work the notifications as they are on the MMB. You may be getting the notifications as they might be queued. Let me know if it does not stop on Monday.

    I went over and checked it out. It will take some getting used too.

    A couple of questions:

    1. When I log onto this board, I go up and hit NEW POSTS and it takes me to a list of all the new posts since the last time I logged on. Will this new board have that?

    2. When I get to the list described above, there is a little check mark next to all the posts on this list. I click on this check mark and it takes me to the latest reply that I have not seen on that particlular thread. For example, it might automatically take me to page 4 if that is where the latest reply is. Will this new board have this?

    Thanks

    Those are fairly standard options in most forums, the trick is making sure the layout is clean enough for you to find it.

    Both these functions exist in the new software.

    In the top right corner of the forum there is a "New Content" button. Once clicked, you will have a buch of options on the left side for different types of new content.

    Once you are in a thread with new unread content, you should see a link next to the reply button to take you to the newest content.

    I sent you a PM, it should work now.

    If that does not work, take a look here

    Let me know how it goes.

    Thanks.
