    When I click 'New Posts' I get 90% RSS newsfeeds!

    I guess it's a way of bulking up content, but it's mostly non-webmaster stuff and makes it difficult to 'see the wood from the trees'. :angry:

    How about a button for 'new posts excluding RSS' ??

    Good point.
    I am looking for a way to exclude the rss posts from "new posts" and todays post" sections. So far with no luck, so if anyone can offer any ideas or help it would be most welcome.

    Ah!

    Ok for now untill I get the editing done if you dont want to see the rss feeds in your search the use the "new posts" in the nav bar, this will not then display the rss posts.

    Thanks, its nice to hear that.
    I d take all comments seriously, after all its the members that make a Forum so it would be foolish not to. Yours was a valid point and I am glad you pointed it out.
