There seem to be a good amount of posts among the Stocks A-Z that don't get enough attention. Could posts to these forums get added to the Active Topics list so they might get more feedback?

As a slight refinement to that, maybe clicking on the sections, such as Stocks A-D, or Stocks E-K could show a similar recent postings for that section. As it is, you have to really be looking for information on a stock; maybe it's just the way I read web sites, but I like to be able to browse through before digging in.

Do you mean the "Active Topics" link or the snippets from active threads that are visible on the Community page. If it's the latter, all of the forums should be included ...

I'll think a bit about Sean's suggestion, too. Before I had the snippets divided into 5 tabbed sections. My assessment was that this wasn't helpful because it required that you visit the 5 tabs to see what was happening. I combined everything into one tab.

So ... advice on how to implement this is welcome.

Joe,

Perhaps tabs for each of the forums that contain the last 20 or so posts. So if you clicked on the Stocks A-D tab the last 20 posts would come up, much like clicking on the Community tab.

I can't speak for Andrew, but I always loved this feature; thank you.

I like the new expanded topics list.   But I have a question.   When you first check in the home page, you have a couple of questions in the main field with an open folder, which implies that clicking on that folder will take you somewhere, but it doesn't.   What is the purpose of it?

The images of the folders are entirely decorative. Since pointing at them doesn't change the mouse pointer, clicking certainly does nothing. Should they disappear?

Looks like they did ;-)   That is fine, the new opening page is fine with the hot paragraph leads, and I like the search by time period for Active Forums, and the fact that your choice, (i.e. Two weeks), remains sticky for you, so you don't have to change it each time you log in.   Gene
