Re: Getting Complete Listing Of [Super Search] Results

I also have seen a need for this. And as long as we're in the "if you don't ask, you never get" mode, along with the individual check boxes, I'd like to see a "check all" and a "clear all" pair of buttons.

If that is feasable, could it be included on the newest nodes page, also? There are times when I don't have time to go through all of the newest nodes and they start to pile up. If I could check off the ones I'd read, there would be a shorter list for next time.

(so many nodes and so little time ... )

Theo, theres a checkbox at the bottom of Newest Nodes which says "I've read all these" (or similar), maybe you overlooked it? As soon as you hit that once, however, NN will always show you all nodes since you last used it, instead of just the nodes for the last day, which it defaults to otherwise. If you'd like to turn it off again, theres a "Clear newest nodes flag" (or something), on user settings. C.	[reply]

Thank you, castaway. I use that button every day that I finish all of the NN. It's just that some days I get behind and it takes several days to catch up during which I can't hit that button or I'll lose the nodes I haven't seen yet. -Theo- (so many nodes and so little time ... )	[reply]

Even if you don't look at the site for a few days, the nodes you haven't seen aren't lost for ever: there's an input on Newest Nodes to set how many days back you want to list the nodes. (It's however limited to max 8 or 14 days I don't know which one.) Update: I see that it's also skipping the list of notes if you're querying more than a few days.	[reply]
