XF 1.2 Can I make Watched Threads default to "All?"

[Okuma Steve]

Is there a setting somewhere that would allow me to set the default view for "watched threads" to show all of them and not just unread ones?

Also is there a way to make "What's New?" show all threads since I was last on?

I just don't like threads being removed from the list after I read them, and I like to be able to see my own threads at the top of "What's New?" right after I create them.

Thanks

For the watched threads, you can find the following in the navigation template:

                            <li><a href="{xen:link 'watched/threads'}">{xen:phrase watched_threads}</a></li>

Replace it with:

                            <li><a href="{xen:link 'watched/threads/all'}">{xen:phrase watched_threads}</a></li>

In the same template, find:

                        <li><a href="{xen:link 'find-new/posts'}" rel="nofollow">{xen:if $visitor.user_id, {xen:phrase new_posts}, {xen:phrase recent_posts}}</a></li>

Replace it with:

                        <li><a href="{xen:link find-new/posts, "", "recent=1"}" rel="nofollow">{xen:if $visitor.user_id, {xen:phrase new_posts}, {xen:phrase recent_posts}}</a></li>

Good idea.
and maybe with an option for just unread.

Change the What's New link to : http://xenforo.com/community/find-new/posts?recent=1 ?

Hey Jeremy, the first one worked great but the second one only changed the "new posts" button and not the "What's New" button, but I was able to figure out how to change it as it is in the same template.

Thanks!

Where do you have a "What's New" button? That doesn't come default in 1.2 and was replaced by New Posts.

It's right next to my "Forums" button at the top, similar to vbulletin 4. I started with xenforo 1.1 maybe? Was it in there by default? I know I've upgraded twice since starting this particular forum.

I'm about to start another forum and didn't realize the what's new button was gone, how I can I add it back in on my new forum?

New Posts is What's New?. It was just rephrased, if I recall correctly.

You've most likely added it via instructions or a resource.
