Latest Comments Numbering..

Good addition! Now it doesn't seem like the site is inactive everytime I return to the site and have to go looking for new posts! A certain Thumbs Up :D

Re: Latest Comments Numbering..

I'm actually considering adding a "New for You" page, that would show each visitor new problems, comments (and now, possibly, forum posts) that have been added since he last visited.

But I'm still not sure how all of that can be done in a way that wouldn't kill the system by doing too many queries.

Done (if with a little bit of a delay)

Re: Latest Comments Numbering..

On the homepage it's currently showing 'Forums(12)' which I take to mean that there are 12 new postings in the forums. However, once I go into the forums section the individual forums show: General Discussion (2); Commons (3); Reference (2); and New Users (2). Which is a total of only 9.

Is this because there are some forums to which I don't have access - presumably there is some restriction based on level?

Clearly this 'glitch' is incredibly minor, but you did say to point out anything that wasn't right.

Re: Latest Comments Numbering..

fwaff - you are absolutely correct in your assumption. There is a forum for upper level users, who have access to the pending problems queue. I guess I should figure out a way to not have the posts you can't read figure in to the new posts number.

Re: Latest Comments Numbering..

Thanks for the quick answer.

Like I said it's really minor, so it's not worth fretting about - if a quick and simple solution leaps out at you then go for it, otherwise leave it as it is. Looking through the forum postings it appears that most come from high-level regulars anyway, so there's probably only a small number of people who'd ever notice. Besides, I'm sure you've got enough to do keeping up with Ravi's seemingly inexhaustible supply of problems!

Keep up the good work :-)
