Is it possible to put a "View new posts link" in the transmission block?  Something that links to http://www.followtheangel.org/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=search&search_id=newposts

It'll save us a few clicks and would be handy for myself.  I don't really care where so long as it's in the page somewhere once logged in.

If you'd like custom links please activate your "personal block." Click on your_file to the left. Select Edit My Homepage. Enable home block and add HTML for links. They will appear in a new block just for you on the left hand side below the news feed.

Good call. It wasn't an issue with the transmissions widget until we started getting more traffic...


EDIT: That kicks ass...

perfect.  For those of you who don't know html paste this into your personal menu block:

Code: [Select]

<a href='link.com'>New Posts</a>

lol the {code} bbtag doesn't seem to work... here:  http://pastebin.com/f59b8db60

Yeah I noticed the same problem when I originally posted using code tags to demonstrate the same thing. Workaround is to disable HTML in your post by checking the disable HTML option. <a> is not an allowed tag, only embedding and <s> is if I recall my settings. So the forum isn't smart enough to ignore that in code blocks.
