    Default Finding Unread Posts

    I've been away from B-G for quite a while. Now everything has changed, and I can't find my Unread Posts. Grateful for a pointer!

    Welcome back Mary! Click on What's New in top right hand corner for posts made since your last log-in. For threads you are subscribed to, click on Forum Actions on the blue banner and choose General Settings, then Subscriptions down the left hand side. Alternatively go to Quick Navigation at the bottom (the old Forum Jump) and opt for Settings, which will give you any Subscribed Forums as well as Subscribed Threads.

    Hi Sue and Mark
    Thanks for quick responses. Well this is really weird. "What's New" is now showing 25 of today's posts (I assume posts since I logged out this morning).
    But "Today's Posts" is showing today's and yesterday's at least, so maybe those are my unread posts?

    Hi Mary,

    Have a try at this -

    Go to Forum Actions at the top of the page, then select General Settings. In there, scroll down to Thread Display Mode and, in the box entitled Default Thread Age Cutoff, select something suitable e,g Show all threads for last year. Don't forget to click the Save Changes button at the bottom of the page. Hopefully that will sort things

    Hi Pam
    I'm glad to be back!
    Now I understand how What's New and Today's Post work, is there a way to view all Unread Posts?
    As Mark suggested, I've set the Default Thread Age Cut Off to Show All Posts.
