When viewing my forum as a guest, a Unread and recently updated topics menu is display near the bottom of the forum. Is there anyway to deactivate that?

its in your spGroupView.php template file of the theme you are using... if you dont want the latest unread topics display, just remove the template tag that displays it...

sp_RecentPostList()

as always, we strongly recommend you make your own theme (http://codex.simple-press.com/.....g-a-theme/) vice editing our theme...

I would actually like to do the opposite on my forum. During my tests I noticed that it shows up for everyone except me. Any way to enable that feature for the admin. I'm using the default template if that helps.

By default it is set to show to members, guests  and moderators. To add admin you need to add to the arguments admin=1 so - using the defaut:

sp_RecentPostList('show=10&admin=1', __sp('Unread and recently updated topics'));

will do it.

Whoops. Mu apologies - it is my fault. That argument should have been 'admins' plural not 'admin'.

Sorry about that.

Any way to show or hide this feature using the admin pages?  Seems like a likely candidate for a configurable setting.

V5 is run by theme and templates. Just like WordPress. Much more flexible.
