content: Hi,I like this forum very much. I have a wish nevertheless just for comfort.In the upper left corner I can chooseCode:Show unread posts since last visit.Show new replies to your posts.I could like an additional Link for my own Posts.I already found a way around. One can select the own profile and then "show my own posts"But an direct link would be very appreciated

content: I've had a look through the options/config but can't see anything. Perhaps it's a third party mod?I'll do a bit more digging.

content: It wouldn't be difficult to add to the top 20% of page formats. But the problem comes with ongoing maintenance. Whenever a new version is released, you have to go through the customization process every time and that makes it too fiddly for most forum managers. Even as a software professional, I'm not sure I would want to commit to something like that, either.Yeah, I would like that, too. But if you are that vain (I am, too :-), live with the native 2-click solution or create your own shortcut.It seems odd that this is the only forum that dumps you OUT of a thread upon posting to it. That seems counter-intuitive.
