Is it possible to add a 'New Posts' link to all pages as the site of 'View New Content'?

That is a link similar to new content, but one that always goes to the new posts/forums tab in new content instead of new content default which is referential to the area one is in?

I'll move your topic to IP.Board feedback as its a suggestion :)

Cheers, I'm noe sure if it would be as simple as adding:

http://www.smartphonegurus.com/forums/index.php?app=core&module=search&do=new_posts&search_filter_app[forums]=1

Into a link?

Bump :(

I had a similar question and created a ticket about it awhile back:

                        <li><a href='{parse url="app=core&amp;module=search&amp;do=<if test="ncmember:|:$this->memberData['member_id']">new_posts<else />active</if>&amp;search_filter_app[<if test="viewnewcontentapp:|:$this->registry->getCurrentApplication() != 'core' AND IPSSearchIndex::appIsSearchable( $this->registry->getCurrentApplication() )">{$this->registry->getCurrentApplication()}<else />forums</if>]=1" base="public"}' accesskey='2'>{$this->lang->words['view_new_posts']}</a></li>

to

                        <li><a href='{parse url="app=core&amp;module=search&amp;do=<if test="ncmember:|:$this->memberData['member_id']">new_posts<else />active</if>&amp;search_filter_app[forums]=1" base="public"}' accesskey='2'>{$this->lang->words['view_new_posts']}</a></li>

And that will do what you want.

It's not a "New Posts" link, but it does link to the new posts regardless of what section you're in.

Can I see that on a forum somewhere as a guest? Or a screen shot? I'm incredibly interested.

Im also intersted. My members wish to have the "Today's Posts"/"New Posts" feature like vB has.

Grin, thanks for that :) I worked out the self same thing myself yesterday afternoon, still not as good as in vB but it works!

If I'm understanding you right, then what you need can be done with a simple skin edit, in 3.1 the link would be something like:

{$this->settings['_base_url']}app=core&module=search&do=new_posts&search_app=forums

Any ideas as to how to change this on 3.1?

<li><a href='{parse url="app=core&module=search&do=<if test="ncmember:|:$this->memberData['member_id']">new_posts<else />active</if>&search_filter_app[forums]=1" base="public"}' accesskey='2'>{$this->lang->words['view_new_posts']}</a></li>

Will still work.

1. Find

<li><a href='{parse url="app=core&amp;module=search&amp;do=<if test="ncmember:|:$this->memberData['member_id']">new_posts

2. Follow it through the end until you see </li>

3. Replace it with what I quoted above.

Cheers I'll give it a try!
