Is there a way, or could there be a way, to search by time *without* entering a "search term"? My &*&#$&%* power just cut off for a split second and *all* the threads from the last check are gone and the only thing I can do is go up and down every forum checking timestamps. It'd be great to be able to recreate the "new messages" function, independent of what the cookies say are "new".

You mean remember the last listing of Show New Posts?
At the end of the generated listing's url is the string which enables you to always recreate that search. E.g.:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...earchid=748796

The searchid=748796 bit means that whenever I follow the SNP link and get a list, I can change the number on the end, hit return, and effectively search as though I hadnt been here since whenever that searchid was generated. The list is now all those since that day.

Basically, write down the little number occasionally, change the number when you want to roll back the days, and hit return.

Nice tip Proud. I was wondering the same thing.

You can also use http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...ction=getdaily to view the new posts for the current day.

Okay, thanks - I'll do that.

-- Ah! I'll do *that*. Either one's good, though.
