Re: Block forum
Hi,
didn´t think about it, theoretically yes, the question is what exactly would it show. Obviously showing all posts is nonsense, that would very soon get way too large.
We could do it like a feed, but there already is an RSS feed.
Any more detailed ideas as to what exactly it should show?

Re: Forum Block
Hi, I also thought about it. I added to the menu - the main tab link to unread forum posts, for me enough, I will not miss anything ...

Re: Forum Block
I was just thinking of that. Probably best as a simple link over a block. Not sure how a block would really work. There is so much on the forum. I think it is better served as a link.

Re: Forum Block
Yes, a link is perfect.
I prefer links opening in a new window, so the Menu text for the link to the unread posts is:
Forum: unread posts|[path-to-unreadposts] "target=_blank"|mticon-logo
I hope this works for everybody!
