[RoarinRow]

No problem (what was given was just the same format as used
in the Unread since Last).

That's the ticket!  Thank you!!

jacortina, very much improved upon! one thing, how do i get it to use the same colors as what my forum uses? where it says subject, started by, etc etc, it should be same as within forums but it isn't.

[RoarinRow]

One last question jacortina, where can I make the same change of the hard return to the 'All unread topics'?  This way both my views will be consistent.

As this code is based on that used for Unread Replies (Recent and All), it only does what that does. The query used there (and here) doesn't get/apply the group colors (doesn't query the membergroup table at all).

Recent.template.php

It will change both All Unread and Recent Unread.

Thank you again jacortina!  The first part of the code for All unread topics works perfectly.  The second part but the board name below the topic name, but the topic name is not a URL.  I tried to redo the find and replace several times and I'm sure that's still my problem. 

Can you please look at that last part when you are available?   

[jacortina]

Could you supply a few lines of code around those lines from your file?

Hi, thanks.  In fact, here's the whole file attached.

Just to confirm, the problem you experienced was with
Unread Replies, right?

Yes it is with 'unreadreplies'.  This new code clear up the link, but the board name is still in the same line

SHOW THE POSTER IN RECENT TOPICS?

What I would like with RC2 and 0.86 seems simple: it's just to show the poster in Recent Posts. It seems a major lack only having topic and date, but not 'who'.

Looks to me like 0.95 may have it, but I don't have this version, so could someone tell me how can I get it in 0.86? (I can see code in php files like, all ready to do it! - but I do not have the expertise to implement).

Thanks for the help and support given here!
