Configure Portal 'Recent Activity' box.
 
You can now configure the 'Recent Activity' box on the right of the Portal page. You get to pick what forums' activity shows up in that box. You can do so by going into your Control Panel and choosing 'Recent Posts Config'

If you choose no forums, it will default to the General Forum.

Let me know if you run into any problems.

Thanks Alot Brandon, much of your work seems to go unseen or just never noticed it wouldnt have been here if it wasnt for you. Thanks Alot for this feature and nice job.

Is there any chance you could have it default to the old way (ie everything but chit-chat, IIRC)?

Just have everything except those things selected. :D

Oh, yeah. And thanks, Brandon! :)

It's not for the people logged in, but for the people who aren't logged in. (Since I tend to browse not logged in, and only log in when I see something worth replying, or every once and a while to check PMs).

What is the "default" then? Is it the old way?

Makes sense .. I think it should be like the old way, now, for guests.

Great job, Brandon. Quick, someone think of something else to make him do!

How about a subscribed forums list similar to the pop-up buddy list?

Re: Configure Portal 'Recent Activity' box.
 
A subscribed forums list can be found on your user cp .. is that not good enough?

This is definetly convinient! You don't want new people getting lost or to a certain point frustrated because they can't find anything or understand. :yikes: Although, maybe an even cooler thought is that everything could be organized either alphabetically, categorized by type of thread, or even grouped chronologically. But myabe that's just for the organized cumpulsive minds, such as myself. :o
Any how this new "option" is definetly good for those who can't stand to see so many threads at once and to some point ... it is even more organized .. which is absolutely a PLUS!!! :D

Thank You for making this site even COOOLER to browse around in!!

Brandon this completely rocks. I agree with Franchesca below me. This is extremely convenient. You're awesome.
