Last Visit
My only problem with this BB is that at infrequent times when I log on, the "last visited" time is X hours, then I go to either "User CP" or "New Posts" and get the time reverteds to 1 min ARGH!!! :mad:
Could some kind soul suggest a fix to this infuriating gremlin?Pat

No I cant, most other forums have a facility where, you can mark al posts as read and then everytime you visit you simply click" view all unread". That way, you dont have to read all 10 pages of new posts everytime you visit. I havent worked out a way to do that here.
Cheers,

However, it should never go down to 1 minute.
There is a handy link that you can put in your favourites which will show all new posts in the last 24 hours irrecpective of how long ago you were in.

Couple of tricks that I use....
I don't log out.
On my desk top, I have a shortcut to http://www.woodworkforums.ubeaut.com...hp?do=getdaily
When I do come on line, I don't ever close the first window, I always point to where I want to go next & right click & open the item in a new window.
IE, point to UserCP, Right Click & Open Item in New Window, then, in that window I point to each subscribed item, Right Click on the down arrow at the start of the item & click on Open Item in a New Window.
Then, once they are all open, I read each one & reply and/or close it.
If you don't have heaps of memory or processing power in your PC, only open a few at a time & as long as you leave the first 2 windows open, you can always go back to them & open more.
Easy.Cliff....if all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail...

Use Firefox, and tabbed browsing- achieves the same thing, but even neater.

I have the newposts reset on my laptop (win 2000) but not on my home PC (XP). They are both using internet explorer.
One thing that might be an issue is that my that my laptop browser doesn't keep any browsing history. This may be confusing the search.Specializing in O positive timber stains
