    Hi TA staff,

    Now I got a question about the new forums:
    What exactly is the difference between the actions "New Posts" and "Recent Posts"?

    I noticed only because my 3 recent posts didn't show up when I refreshed "New Posts", nor did their threads. Under "Recent Posts" however, they are showing just fine. Screenshots below:

    Update:
    This thread doesn't show under "New Posts" as of the time of writing (20:14h CET), while it does under "Recent Posts".

    At the same time, it's working correctly for other posts/threads, e.g. Eli's reply in another thread shows up just fine under "New Posts" as do other people's posts. Screenshot attached:

    Recent posts lists all posts sorted by time, new posts lists all posts sorted by time that you haven't seen yet. (Or that's how it's supposed to work.)

    Thanks for the quick reply, Eli!

    Makes sense, and also explains why I don't see my own posts listed - as I've seen them already.
    So I'm quite sure it works as intended :)
