By now, you've almost certainly noticed a new link across the top of the site: " New". The link takes you to the "View New Posts" page.
The view new posts page shows the latest activity from all across the site. It includes:
- Forum posts
- Storybook posts
- Reviews
- Literary Works
- Club topics
My hope is that by promoting it to the top bar, it'll start getting more attention and lead people toward discovering all the great stuff YWS has to offer, such as storybooks, clubs, and the forums that are "below the fold" on the forums page. But, consider this as a two week trial period. If it ends up being helpful, it'll stay. If, though, it ends up just taking up space, it'll be removed after two weeks.
Known Bugs
- Already read posts from the forums and storybooks will sometimes show up as unread.
- The "New Posts" count in the userbox on the front page sidebar will differ from the count shown on the View New Posts page. The former counts only forums and storybooks. The latter includes everything listed above.
