That option doesn’t reliably do the filter. Sometimes I get it, sometimes I don’t and I haven’t found a logic to when it works and when it doesn’t. It’s good to know what it’s supposed to do so I can look at what I might be doing that it’s not working right.
I just noticed that using the What's New button in the navbar at the bottom does not include the filter, just like you described. But accessing What's New from the drop-down "hamburger" menu from the top left DOES include the filter.
i think so. I think I was confused because the drop down on the side has both what's new and latest posts, and I got confused with that what's new with the one on the bottom and indeed the one at the top with the page icon.
@Jdiggity1 - Do you think this specific link could be renamed to stand out on its own, to remove confusion?
This is good to know as this was stumping me as well. It's not a big deal just an added step, either have to hit the "save draft" button or wait 10 seconds before you navigate to another page. For whatever reason the old forum used to do this instantaneously, you could jump around pages as fast as you wanted collecting quotes. You could even start typing something on mobile and then shut your phone off and get on a desktop and your draft would still be there. I don't know if there's any reason for or against setting the "save draft" option to 1 second as that's what it seems like the old forum did. But like I said not a big deal just have to remember to hit "save draft" now.
You seem to have mastered the multi-quote...
Ok ok. Good idea.
It's working for me. Have you got the filter set to "unread"? The filter option is on the right near the top under "mark forums read". Hope this helps!
Apologies, I haven't read the thread to see if anyone else has reported this issue... But the main way I interact with the forum is via the "Latest Posts" list on the front page - it's a super handy way of browsing what the latest topics of discussion are. However, this is currently broken and is no longer being updated.
I appreciate that I can change my bookmark to https://vi-control.net/community/whats-new/posts/ but the front page also clearly needs fixed up
Kenneth is referring to the "Portal" page (you get there by clicking the home icon).
Oh boy, ok, so let me look at that.
Hi Kenneth, can you try it now?Apologies, I haven't read the thread to see if anyone else has reported this issue...

Thank you for clarifying, I didn't think about it. I was used to instant saving in the previous version. Now it works.Thanks for explaining. Yes, see this: https://vi-control.net/community/threads/new-forum-layout-is-live-things-to-know.83813/post-4414801
As noted, there's a "SAVE DRAFT" option you can use, so it's been set to happen automatically now after 10 seconds.
Thanks @Jdiggity1 !!

My work is done.
