added watched topics list

Post by sine nomine » Sun Jan 09, 2005 11:52 pm

up in the list of links at the top of the page is a new one, watched topics. clicking on it will bring up a list of the topics you're watching and let you manage them easily. you can see what topics you're watching, what forum they're from, when they were posted and when they last got replies. you can also delete topics from your list easily.

Oh, good, not just me. I use subsilver and don't see it -- entirely possible it's actually there and obvious, it's after midnight where I am.

Edit twenty seconds later: Oho! It's the little eyeballs! Here I was looking for a text link. In subsilver, it's a little set of eyeballs to the left of "FAQ" and "Search", top right of the screen. Works great.

Heh heh. :oops:
Hey Jude,

And make it better.
Remember,

Then you can start,
To make it better.

the icon for the watched topics list looks like this:

<img src="http://busmail.org/phpBB/templates/subS ... _watch.gif" border="0" alt="" title="" />

some themes have just a text link, some have both text and icon, and a few have icon-only. i tried not to change the look of the section too drastically.

i was using bluegray - i'm pretty sure there wasn't an icon or a link though but it could just be me being blind. Anyway i've changed to subSilver now and i can see a link and the icon :)

scroll down to the bottom of the page in the topic that you want to watch and there should be a line saying 'watch this topic' under the reply and add new topic button. Just click on that.
