Michel,

You said that one of the changes you would implement would be a button or something that would enable one to get the New messages for other forums. IOW, if I set "Enable for reading new messages" in the Forum settings to only one of my 4 subscribed-to forums, then the New messages icon will only reflect when there are new messages for that one forum and that there will be some other way to determine the new messages for the other forums.

Right now it seems that the "Enable for reading new messages" seems to work ok, but whatever happened to the rest of it? I see no new buttons for retrieving other new messages. Have you not implemented this yet?

And I don't know if a button would work anyway ... this is kinda what Dave was getting at when he mentioned 4 new buttons. A combo sounds like a much better idea (which, incidentally, sounds like the way you had it before <g>). Would one button get New messages for *all* the other forums I'm subscribed to? I wouldn't want this kind of behavior (and neither, apparently, does Dave) ... I'd want to be able to choose from which of my other forums to get new messages from. Does that make sense?

>>I don't think I like the idea of having 4 new buttons? 1,2,3 and 4 for my primary forums. and a 1,2,3,4 for my secondary forums? I also don't like the thought of having to respond to some other confirmation popup that I saw in the other thread.

>>Ok, I misspoke on this one. It looks like I'm actually subscribed to like 10 forums and those were on the cbo not all of the forums. I guess the other forums don't show under the new scheme if here are no posts in the forum.
