New posts list does not activate WTS / WTT / WTB button

[Erict]

If one enters any of the Classified subforums, they see a list of threads. Clicking on the "WTS" "WTB" "WTT" button on any of those threads keeps the user in the subforum but basically "filters" it only to that choice.

HOWEVER, If one uses the New Posts option, they see a similar list of threads, but the "WTS" "WTB" "WTT" buttons are not "clickable".

This would be a convenient improvement if it were as simple as someone changing one line of code in the matrix. Maybe it's not that simple.

I didn’t even know you could filter the classifieds with those buttons.

Pro tip here... I didn't know that was a thing but I like it.

So, everybody that has read this, is going to the classified section to try it out.

Silly Neanderthals.

Mark the forum as “Read” before you leave it. Only new posts will show up. It will show up”bumped posts” though. Not that hard to skip those by looking at the “replies” count on the thread.

An easy way to see the “new posts” in any category?

And there's the answer. If you want to be able to click on those.......go to the classifieds.

Now that I look back maybe it's not clear.

Click the "New posts" just under the Forum tab. It will take you to the "Home > Forums > New Posts" pages. Scroll down until you see a "WTS" or "WTB" button and you will find the button is not "clickable" like it is in the specific Classified subforums.

I always log out/log in each session so I start by going to New Posts instead of specific subforums. Maybe those who remain logged in constantly spend more of their time in subforums.

In any event, that's enough time on this for me. Be safe!
