    Is there any way I can create a link on the homepage for the members which will show them all their unread posts.

    Well, if you'd like it to view your posts so you can easily see if someone replied, go to your Administration Panel => Display => Homepage => Headers & Navigation => Nav Links => Press "Add a customized menu"

    Menu name: Whatever you'd like
    Picture: add the link to your picture if you want one:
    Text: Anything
    Redirection URL:
    Code:
    http://murgatroyds.net/search?search_id=egosearch
    Rights: Administrators, Moderators, Members

    See if that works.

    Thanks Ramdaman
    That's not exactly what I want to do

    Is there any way I can create a link on the homepage for the members which will show them all the posts that they have not yet read.

    Where on the homepage do you want this link?

    You can use the following code anywhere:
    Code:
    [url=http://murgatroyds.net/search?search_id=egosearch]View posts[/url]
    or
    Code:
    <a href="http://murgatroyds.net/search?search_id=egosearch">View posts</a>

    Thanks a lot Ramdaman for your replies, however the 'egosearch' is not what I want, we already have that.

    I really do not understand what you are asking for.

    Hello sinbadthebad,

    The only query that currently shows unread posts is :
    Code:
    ?search_id=newposts

    However, this will only show unread posts since your last visit, if you log out and log back in those posts will not be there.

    Full example : https://help.forumotion.com/search?search_id=newposts

      Current date/time is September 22nd 2024, 1:24 pm
