After all this time, it is crazy there is still no "Show New Posts" button.  This is basic core functionality in every forum software package on the planet.

Imagine a busy wpforo site and you haven't visited it in a few weeks.  How are you *easily* supposed to see/scan all new posts/threads?

And please don't say look at the Recent Topic's widget, that's lame and doesn't work on a site with lots of new topics/threads.

Devs why won't you put basic functionality into the wpforo software?

Agreed this is something very urgently needed. Any news on when this might arrive or how high up on the to do list it is?

Even on this forum I've taken to using the RSS feed to keep track of what I have read and haven't in an RSS reader.

This is by far one of the most important features to any forum and I hope it's available soon.

Please be patient. At the moment this feature is under active development.
