LATEST POSTS ... what does it mean ?

[donpedro]

I am using LATEST POSTS link to check what is new here. I just added a post to "Off Topic" branch and I can't see it it LATEST POSTS.

So my question is.... What is included or not-included in "LATEST POSTS" ?

I am just curious. Thanks.

[noobee]

[noobee]

first thought it was a browser refresh problem, but it was not.

[Tommyknocker]

I saw both. But now your Latest News post is gone now.

[noobee]

weird, i still see the "latest posts" listing..

[donpedro]

I know... I made it cofusing. I have two posts

1. "LATEST POSTS ... what does it mean ?" Feedback

2. "Cable router selection help...." Off Topic

Check if you can see one from Off Topic when you click on LATEST POST link on top of this page ?

off topic is not included in the latest posts

[donpedro]

Baldrick, is it only "Off Topic" section or is there some more rules to this ?

[vitualis]

Posts that end up in Closed Topics and the Moderator forum are also not visible in Latest Posts either -- but that shouldn't matter for non-mods.

Perhaps Baldrick could elaborate, but I remember Off Topic posts being removed from "Latest Posts" because these posts are also visible from the front page ( http://www.vcdhelp.com ) and for a while, there were a lot of crappy/offensive posts in Off Topic.

Regards.

Maybe there shoudl be one more topic that will let people to discuss hardware issues that doesn't fit any topics here.
