Last Comments Page - Ancients.info - The Online Resource for Ancient Coins & Antiquities

Unless I am completely obtuse (and I would yield to that claim), I cannot find a "last comments" page here.

I can find the "last comment" (singular), but nothing like you can find on forum, where you can pull down pages of the last comments.

Sometimes people find older photos (I have completely missed), and comment on them, which helps me find a worthy coin to view. But once the next person comments, it is no longer readily apparent.

Since this site allows you to show the last photos posted (in 1, 7 and 14 day periods), is it possible to do the same with comments?

Thanks

Mark

That's a great suggestion, Mark. I've often wished for the same, though the current set-up has forced me to read and comment upon posts outside of my own narrow interests. I would, however, like to have a listing of the threads that were posted or added to in the past 14-days.

Still have the Gemini Ptolemy tet in your pocket or on your dresser?

HJB has it. I didn't want to pay the 8 1/2% NY sales tax.

Hopefully it shows up in the next week or two. I may re-photo it.

What about the "New Posts" link?
(on the top bar . . . between Calendar- and -Search)

Or do you mean "View First Unread" at the top of the page when you open a thread?

Or something else?

It's easy to see the most recent posts, in the order that they were posted and it shows which threads you've viewed since the last post.

That addresses Jeff's request I believe.

What I am looking for is "last comments" for the gallery photos.

Thanks, Barry. Very helpful, but how did you get to the "active topics" page from the ancients.info homepage?

Jeff

bpmurphy · Jan 13, 2009, 01:21 PM

From the Home Page, just click on the More link below recent topics.

I have no idea if you can find recent comments made in the Gallery section.
