Wizard765 Posted March 5, 2015 Share #1 Posted March 5, 2015 With the old site I had it set up so that when I brought it up (I was logged on automatically same as now) ALL the posts from ALL the forums showed up from the newest to the oldest and they would be greyed out if I'd read them and if nothing new was added but they would still be there. I think the only forum that was missing was the welcome to the site part. As well as that it also had a column on the left side that showed a list of my friends and I could tell if anyone was online or not and PM them if I felt like it. Now it is much more difficult to find my friends AND if I choose to look at "whats new" I get a list of threads but if I already read them they are hidden.. Wonder if there is a way to get these two things working with the new site? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyinfool Posted March 6, 2015 Share #2 Posted March 6, 2015 I do miss the side bar with friends and their status, the rest I have gotten used to or found close enough work arounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freebird Posted March 6, 2015 Share #3 Posted March 6, 2015 This question about "What's New" just keeps coming up. "What's New" is exactly what it says...NEW things that you have not read. You can view the site several different ways. If you want to view "What's New" and want that to be the page that you start with, simply bookmark it so that is where the site opens for you. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/search.php?searchid=563494 If you want to see "Today's Posts" with the things you haven't read in bold, then bookmark this link. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/search.php?searchid=563511 If you want to find your OWN posts or threads, click on "My Search Links" in the small menu bar at the top. The friends list on the side is gone. Maybe it is something that I can add later but for now, you have to scroll to the bottom to the "Who's Online" box. People in your friends list with have a + after their name. Not as convenient but it's all there is right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saddlebum Posted March 6, 2015 Share #4 Posted March 6, 2015 (edited) Not sure what set up I have going but on my page I see new threads in bold lettering and previous viewed threads are not in bold lettering.

SilvrT Posted March 6, 2015 Share #6 Posted March 6, 2015 Both of those links just give me a VBulletin message that says Sorry - No Matches. Please try some different terms that's because those search ID's are no longer applicable. Try this for the "What's New"... http://www.venturerider.org/forum/search.php?do=getnew&contenttype=vBForum_Post This is what I use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freebird Posted March 7, 2015 Share #7 Posted March 7, 2015 That's correct. It's the links for "What's New" and under Quick Links, "Today's Posts". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
