Is my memory cheating me, or was there a link like this in the 'main-menu'?
Did I change something to make it disappear?

I can barely keep up with the volume of the german forum, but if I have a little time, I like to look here also for postings that noone else has had an answer for yet.

I think I haven't had this link for ~5 days now...

Hmm, good question. At one time that link was at the bottom right (IIRC) of the main Ubuntu forum page. I used to use it as well (on occasion). I'll ask around. It may just be hidden (or moved) somewhere, and a little digging might uncover it...

It'll be back very soon. It was very Database intensive and it needed some big time tweaking.. :)

I think the relevant question might be 'Night in what time zone?'.:grin:

Will be saturday 9/24 at least pending the forum software upgrade on 9/23. :) Sorry for the delay in this, we decided to go ahead with the forum upgrade instead of re-hacking the code in this vb version. When we get the new forum software up you will be able to do about 10 different searchs.

For example: unaswered threads, threads posting in the last 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 60, 1 hour, 2 hours and a few others..

Wow. Sounds great. Thanks for your hard work!

Yup. Sounds very good.

Another thing I have not found (other than 'advanced search' and typing my user name) is to look for threads I have posted to.
Where is this hidden? Or have I to 'subscribe' them all?

quick links / my profile / find all posts by Juergen ;) or click on your nick in one of your posts and choose "find more posts by Juergen".

Well, OK.
I do Search/advanced, then type 'J' in user name and my browser knows who I am :-)

Just thought I somehow missed a more direct way - but trying to shortcut 2 mouseclicks and 1 keyboard-click just shows how lazy I am ;-)
BTW: I still don't see the 'unanswered' link...

if you click search on the top navbar you will find the link to unanwered threads again :)
