I don't know how much flexibility you have in the actually BBS system, but I've seen a feature before that I'd really like here. It'd be nice when your viewing a list of Topics, that if there was a new post in a Topic since that last time you have viewed all the posts, there was a little icon next to the Topic.

If anyone has any thoughts on this, even to say "It can't be done", I'd appreciate hearing back about it.

Not sure I follow. There is a list of "Active Topics" since you last session, and there are different icons for the topics that have had additions since your last visit, plus there's the front page to give you an indication of what's new. Do you mean having a "new" icon next to any message that you haven't seen in the topic?

Like:

message 1
reply 1
reply 2
reply 3 <--NEW
reply 4 <--NEW

Something like that? If so...I'm sure it *can* be done, would just have to find the time to actually do it.

Thanks!

My apologies. From what you described, the feature I was looking for already exists. Didn't realize that "there are different icons for the topics that have had additions since your last visit", since all my posts where from a single visit. Thanks for responding, I just hadn't noticed the feature yet, and figured I'd say something.
