I agree with everyone who is asking for the recent forums posts to be put back on the main page. That was one fo the best features on the frontpage! It's part of what attracted me to Neowin when I first started coming here, I miss it a lot.

Same here, I loved the how you could refresh the list without refreshing the entire page.

I dont like the drop down list. Please get back the old style so that we can just refresh the recent forum topics instead of the whole page....Maybe we can vote on this.

You do realise you can change the forum theme back to "Swift Refresh" yourself in the lower left??

I like it besides two or so things that have already been stated.

a) the frontpage having those links static was more useable IMHO than the roll overs. That said...I'll get used to this

b) Forum colours need adjusting I think. In particular the titles on the forums main page...the blue is the samr colour as the alternating sub forums so you dont know where one section of the forum starts and the next does too easily due to the blue blending.

I also think the pale blue is too large a contrast to the white. When viewing topics at least currently I am seeing a checkered page rather than the actual content. Put simply..the blue to me seems to be a bit too strong and the fact it repeats horizontally is distracting my eyes from focusing on the actual topic titles (which is also blue). I duno...I'll get used to it but in my oppinion the blue rows could be even paler than they are.

I'll get used to both but.

Great design but and thanks.

At first I thought I would not like it but I am pleased. It gives a good effect on the eyes. Great work guys!

EDIT: How do I mark all forums read?

Either via the quick links menu on the top right next to the search bar or by clicking the blue circle (with the arrow in it) next to the individual forum you wish to mark as read.

Thanks. I was wondering because there used to be a link right nex to overall top 20 postsers.

RSS Guard 5.2.0 changelog: Added: Feed auto-fetch can now also be delayed while Feral GameMode is active on Linux and startup auto-fetch is skipped when GameMode is already active. (#2265) WebEngine builds can now use RSS Guard generated proxy auto-config (PAC) rules so article/web browsing follows per-account and per-feed proxy settings more closely. (#2273) Generated PAC rules now also cover related subdomains and use Public Suffix List data, so feeds such as feeds.bbc.co.uk can also proxy resources from images.bbc.co.uk. (#2273) Standard feeds can now define extra proxy domains, useful when article images, stylesheets or other page resources are loaded from a CDN or another domain that should use the same feed proxy. (#2273) RSS Guard now asks for proxy credentials when a WebEngine page needs proxy authentication and can fill credentials from the current feed proxy when available. (#2273) Network settings again include an option to ignore all cookies, which clears stored cookies and prevents new cookies from being accepted. Standard RSS/ATOM feeds can now individually ignore cookies while downloading feed data. Stored cookies can now be deleted from the Tools menu. Custom skin colors can now override the feed list article count color separately from feed titles, including a separate highlighted color. (#2275) Settings dialog can now search across available settings and highlight matching controls. (#1754) Standard RSS/ATOM feeds can now optionally be reported as broken when they are valid but contain no articles. (#2039) Standard RSS/ATOM feeds can now override the application-wide feed connection timeout per feed. (#1023) Tray icon can now use a custom background color and unread-count text color, with an option to reuse the generated icon as the application icon. (#1973) Support for more benevolent parsing of Gemlog entries (#2295). Article list can now show when an article was received by RSS Guard. (#947) Feed deep discovery now actually scrapes all links found in the website and checks if they are feeds or not. This greatly enhances usability of the deep discovery mode and discovers many more feeds than before. (#2306) Search boxes now show a small dot when the feed or article list is hiding some items because of active filtering. (#873) Articles now have a shortcut-assignable action to open the homepage of the feed they belong to. (#2060) Fixed: Parallel feed updates no longer crash when multiple update results are processed at the same time. (64cf521) Links in WebEngine articles opened from feeds such as Kill the Newsletter now open correctly instead of being swallowed by the embedded page. (#2272) Relative article URLs resolution was kinda broken. (#2282) Clicking article URL did not work when the URL had "fragment" set. (#2293) The default proxy setting now uses Qt/system default proxy behavior instead of forcing no proxy. (e0263ad) WebEngine article loading now keeps the current feed context, so feed-specific proxy credentials remain available while the article page loads.
