| Using the Coffeeshop forums: a question Posted by Mark A at 12:45, 2nd February 2026 |     |
The question: when you visit the forums here, what's your preferred point of entry to them?
(Me, if the site doesn't open on the 'Recent posts' page, I head for that.)

Mine is "unread posts since your last visit". This gives the posts "in line" under the relevant topic/thread, which can be helpful if there's been a number of posts on it recently.
A "thank you" for things being set up to accommodate different approaches.

I go into the listing of the subgroups and open each one in turn that has a 'New' indicator. I then open the topics that have new items.

I have bookmarked "Show unread posts since last visit." But Edge normally gives me an error message about HTTPS, I then click to continue and am told there are no unread posts.

‘Show unread posts since last visit’ and that is my bookmark for the forum using Safari.

Really useful thread - thank you.

I, too, go straight to 'show unread posts since last visit'. I can then start reading them with the oldest first, or I can select any of them to read first, if they look particularly significant to me.

Also start with unread posts

Subscribe to each thread of interest & providing you then read the new posts, you will get an email alert each time the thread is added to. No need to keep looking as the emails have a link to the unread posts
