I may be being a little dozy and just nto noticing it. But is there a place to see the most recent posts on the site? if not could there be?

Yep, on your toolbar underneath the main banner there's a link for 'new posts'.

Are you a bit hungover today?:D

Actually, my mistake, maybe it's me that's hungover. I just noticed that the 'new posts' link only appears on the default forum skin (which is the one I use when browsing at work) and not on the writing forums skin.

Hmm thats rather odd. I also have noticed the absence of the newest posts link:confused:

If you copy the link, and post it into a forum post, it still should work.

Maybe like: http://www.writingforums.org/search.php?do=getnew

Hey guys, thanks for noticing. I'll add it.

Okay, it's up. I added it under the "links" section in the main menu.
