What is going on ADMIN?? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

vainchick5 · 05-05-2006, 08:38 AM

When I create a new thread, it doesn't show up anywhere unless you go to the actual forum it's in (General, My Yorkie..ect.). Before even if no one had responded, you would still see it, and other people saw it to be able to respond to it. I have an important health question but now it's just burried and has no views because people can't see it. Its pointless to post a new thread if people can't really see it unless they go to the actual forum it's in. People normally just click NEW POSTS to see whats new but really that's not the case. Can you please shed some light on this for me?

I know!! It seems like the "new posts" are not poping to the top anymore. This is very frustrating. I have lost, and had to search really hard for post that should have been at the top and I just never could find them. What's up?

I just got a IM from Admin. I asked the same question and they said,,,, New threads and new posts that you have just posted do not show up on the New Posts link any more, but if someone replies to that thread, it will show up in the New Posts link

I know its so hard to find all of the new threads bc like you said they get lost at the bottom!

But even when I replied to Nobelle's post it didn't pop to the top. It that what you were saying? That when someone replies it will go to the top? I hope this isn't the "new way" I really don't like it!

I don't like it either! I think if you post on a thread, it wont show on new posts but,,,, if someone else posts after you, it will show again. That's my understanding.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one that hates this new thing.

txshopper73 · 05-05-2006, 09:03 AM

I know! I like the old "New Post" button.

chewysmom · 05-05-2006, 09:08 AM

Oh NO!!! What was your question Nobi??? Is everything ok?

vainchick5 · 05-05-2006, 09:11 AM

It's in the sick yorkie section. Coco is snorting all weird and I took her to the vet and they said she has allergies, because it's flemy and wet sounding. I asked about collapsed trachae but she said no because that would sound more dry. So I've been giving her children's benadryl allergy. But I don't know if this could be a cold (do dogs get colds) or if there is something else I can do to help her. My poor baby. Occasionally when she breathes, I can hear the stuff rattling around back there in her nose.

StewiesMom · 05-05-2006, 09:14 AM

On mine, I think if you read a thread already, it doesnt show up in the new posts. I hope Coco feels better. Let us know what happens.

rrosenberry · 05-05-2006, 09:20 AM

I agree, I'm not diggin' this new thing either, I hated it day one,, I hit new posts all day long,, but never see ones I have responded to till someone else responds, I thought , maybe I couldn't see it, but others could... since I just relpied... I dont know...

vainchick5 · 05-05-2006, 09:24 AM

Thanks Kristy. I just left a message for her vet. Yea I hope admin takes it back to how it was before with the threads. It's reallly annoying and makes me not want to post any more threads. What's the point?

admin · 05-05-2006, 09:27 AM

New posts ONLY show you threads with posts that you have not read. If you post a new thread or a new reply in a thread, it will not show up in New Posts (for you) because the system considers you as having read that thread. For everyone else, that thread you just posted in will show up in the New Posts link because it is a new post for them.

If you click on a thread that shows up in the New Posts link, the next time you click New Posts, that thread will not show up in the list because it has now been marked 'read'. This is a more efficient method, because members can now easily see what they have or haven't read and what threads have new posts in them on YT. If you want to clear your New Posts list, click on Quick Links then click Mark Forums Read and it will consider you as having read all current threads up until that time.

We understand some member may not like this, and may be used to the old system, for those members, you may click on Quick Links then click Today's Posts. This will show you a list in reverse chronological order (meaning new posts first) of new threads for today, which will include threads in which you are the last person to reply and include threads which you have started.

Alternatively, you can also bookmark this link below in your browser's favorites, which will give you results of the old style of the New Posts link...
