Everyone deserves a reply and now you can more easily find those threads in need of reply. We have had the global "unanswered threads" link in "Get Posts" drop down menu for a long time. Now we have it at a specific forum level. At each forum level there is now a "Browse Unanswered Threads" link in the "Search this Forum" drop down. It will find all the threads with no replies for just that forum. Enjoy!
 
Physics news on Phys.org
There's 20 pages of them. I'll be up for days just seeing if I can reply.

Seriously, it's a nice feature. Hopefully this page count will decrease now. :thumbs:
 
Could it be possible to have some sort of "My PF" near your nickname (top right corner).

We can check if anyone posted on a thread we're subscribed to by clicking on "My PF". However, that's not really fast. I think it would be cool to have an icon (or something like that) that let's know that we got a reply.

You could leave your email client open and then you'll get an notice you have a reply :)

Yes. One could also open every single subscribed thread and keep on pressing refresh.

I thought it would be a good addition to PF, but oh well.
 
You can open the user control panel ("my PF") in a new tab and refresh that. No need to refresh all threads separately.
