For the "Show new replies to your posts." button, maybe you could make it so it has an (x) by it, where x is the number of New replies? im tired of clicking on it every ten minutes to check
I request an unsubscribe button as soon as possible. Time and time again i have old topics i care not for anymore showing up there. And as more posts are being made this will only increase.
These both will happen as soon as the final version of our forum software becomes available (there are plugins that do exactly what you are asking). We are currently using RC2 (release candidate 2) and latest version is RC5. It's very likely that there will not be RC6, meaning that the final version is coming out very soon.
It's actually incredibly annoying because there are all kinds of cool and useful plugins available but only for the latest version. I could of course install RC5 right now, but it's a lot of work, and will become pointless work when the final version comes out and I have to re-install
again. It's better to wait for few more weeks or months and get the final version.
Once the final version comes out, our forums will see many great changes. Just wait and see.
