Can "Recent Posts" Thread Be Restored?

[stjr]

Until the most recent revision, MJ had a link that you could click on that showed all the recent posts, last one first, going back for several days or something like 10 pages worth.  I don't see this anymore.  Can it be restored?  It used to be at the base of the "Latest Discussion Feed" but now that link takes you to the "Forum" Board listing the various forum categories.

Also, could the "Latest Discussion Feed" be expanded to show more recent postings by clicking on an "Expanded Forum Feed" link?  When MJ enjoys bursts of activity, this may only show the last few minutes of posts, a mere slice of the last day or so.

Thanks for looking into.

Here is the link you are looking for.

It's also at the bottom of the forum. Look for "View the most recent posts on the forum."

Lunican, thanks.  Would have not found it there without the assist.  I think it would be helpful to have it back on the home page but appreciate that you retained the feature, nonetheless.

Why do you use that instead of 'Show unread posts since last visit'?

Because sometimes I am looking for a post that I read before but didn't respond to at the time.  Also, I may want to reread one of my own posts for an edit.  It's sometimes a quicker and easier way to do a look up.  Another reason is I have many pages of unread posts and the link you suggested only shows the titles, thus  requiring me to open each one, whereas, the link I requested has them all opened in sequence and I just need to scroll.  Lastly, when the link I requested was on the home page, I didn't have to make nearly as many clicks and scrolls to access it after being absent awhile as I do with the link you are suggesting which requires me to open a forum (which defaults to the page bottom in my experience) and then scroll back to the top of the page for said link.

Thanks for asking.
