Recent Topics

I like using the recent topics button. This evening, everything prior to podcast 392 - Joseph Lofthouse on plant breeding - part 1 reply 36 minutes ago by Scott Foster, won't show on my screen. I don't know how to get a screen shot on this keyboard, sorry.

Same, this is also my experience tonight

Are you saying that in the recent topics list the oldest that is showing up is Mar 06, 2018 · 05:51 PM
?

If yes, I think I know why.  We're fixing something else, so this might be a symptom of the repair.

But it is also the symptom of the recent topics feature having outlived the updates.  We are told it will probably be discontinued one day, however, there is an option to set your regular forum view to look the same as the old recent topics page.  I suspect that everything should look normal there.

If you click forums, there is an option at the top to change your view.  Once you find one you like, you can set it as your default view in your profile.

In experimenting with those alternative views, I don't see any that show a less-truncated version of the Recent Topics.

Good to know.

I was really hoping that would be an easy fix.

I don't know how to fix it myself, so I'll get in touch with those who can.
Thanks for reporting this.  Have some apples to munch on while we work on it.  

how do the forums and recent topics lists look now?

Recent looks normal. Thanks

Raven and Devaka fixed it!  What a team!
