I miss having a view that shows the newest posts. Checking every thread isn't very practical. So far, the best workaround I've found is to click on the little notifications bell icon in the upper right of the page. If you have notifications turned on (I think they are by default), you'll see a list of all the latest posts and comments and can visit each one from there.
To see this working, head to your live site.

Oh good to know. I too miss having that new posts view.
I found that you can “subscribe” to all the different post categories and it gives me those alerts whenever there’s a new post. Also the mobile app works like a charm with the news feed (?) for new posts!
I’m subscribed to notifications and that is working quite well. I may need to download the wix app, @Mottainai!
You should do it, Tam! The only problem is that I can foresee myself being on it too much, LOL.
I like the app because it gives me a notification for new members and I can approve them with a tap. Plus, the photos uploading thing is awesome. I hated not being able to do that from my phone on the old site.
I can’t seem to get the app to access this forum. I’m going to have to do some research! For now, safari works fine.
I'll try sending you an invite with a link.
@bluetamarai Did you get it? I signed up on the app with my same email and used the SUMHKT code to get the forum!
I did get it, let me try!
so weird, it’s not accepting my password and I keep getting stuck in a captcha loop. It never accepts my answers!
Skwigg, can you see recent activities in the app too? It seems to show new posts but not necessarily new comments on the existing posts, like the alerts bell does in the website. There’s a notifications settings place but it’s just blank for me.
When I click the red notifications number in the upper right of the app, it's exactly the same list as the alert bell on the website. I wish they synched, because I'll read all the notifications on one and they'll still show up as "new" on the other. I figured out I could mark them all as read though, so then I can tell when new ones have come in instead of them piling up.
Huh, I don’t have that on my app. That’s okay, I’ll keep trying. It’s still pretty neat. Thanks for your help!
I really like the app! It’s very exciting!
I think I’m most excited about getting push notifications for all the posts and comments. I hear that little sound and come running to see what we’re talking about.
There's an app for the site?! Not that I need another app on my phone but that's awesome!
