    Default Excluding Classified from "new posts"

    There have been alot of great threads started in the last few weeks about how to keep growing and moving the forum into a more positive and convenient community.

    One of the suggestions i have seen pretty often was people were frustrated to weed through the classified section posts when they hit the "new posts" link on the navbar.

    This should exclude all classified sections from appearing in those results giving you more quality.

    Most people who are interested in the classified section would go directly to the forum to look for items

    If you notice any problems with the way i have coded this please let me know.

    I will continue to be searching and reading the topics at hand which give suggestions about the forum.

    Thanks

    Shawn


    UPDATE

    Seems like the community was against the new change, we came up with a better solution.

    We gave you 2 buttons

    New posts = displays all new posts excluding classifieds
    New classifieds = displays all new classifieds

    Not sure I understood that right. Do you mean I will now have to navigate to each classified catagory, rather than have them pop up with all the new posts? If so, I would find that a definite drawback. I like reading the classifieds with all the rest of the posts.

    Or another maybe option would be to have all the classifieds on the navigation bar. Sorry Gary but it will be a pain to have to click on them all separately.
