I see how to mark "new" for individual posts, and I see the total "new" on the bottom of the main page, but how about in the categories? Thanks!!

Kylie, I don't have anything showing the number of new posts on the bottom of the main page...wonder what's up with that???

Kylie - I just took a look at my board. When I set that one up, I went with the standard board they offer because it's a freebie and limited. My board does have a column to the left indicating whether there are new posts in both the categories and indvidual topics. A business like this proably uses a custom board with their own theme like you see here with Dr. B's heading and links back to the rest of the site. They want to use their own colors, set a specific column width, etc. I think that is one of those things the administrator decide when setting up board options. That "new" button on mine is an actual column to the left, which takes up more room. One thing I see you can do here and change your preferences so that new posts and topics show on top first.

Gail - down on the bottom, do you see that "Info Center" box? Clicik the link to view the 10 latest posts.

Mmmmm, I 've gone through all the options for setting my board up and still can't get the new posts anywhere but the bottom (the number of them). That's the only thing I don't like so far, but I haven't had much time to play yet. Thanks!

Gotcha... ...I thought Kylie meant there was something on the main page other than the 10 latest posts. These boards are a little different on the main page from the ones I'm used to in terms of being able to tell which topics have new posts, etc., so I'm still floundering a little...
