I am not sure how many of you are aware of this, but there is a show unanswered posts button that is very useful, if you want to help people who have not received support.

However, it is harder to help them, when a ton of “show and tell” projects are in the way clogging up some space.

Now, I am not saying the “show and tell” section is bad, I am just saying I don't really explore many projects and want to help people more.

So, there should be the “show unanswered posts” button, in each section.

For example:

I want to see other scratcher's suggestions and give my opinion on them.

If I just click on the “suggestions” forum, and the new button in it, “show unanswered posts”, I can find tons of suggestions without needing to search through ten pages of unanswered posts to find one.

And of course, it is an optional button, so it is not required to be used.

Support! Just at the bottom of every section? Also this migjt require some re-coding on DjangoBB's part…

Yeah, prob at the bottom of every section. Or it could be when you press the button, a checkbox of lists you want to show

Maybe, but hard to add though

Not really. Easier than some other coding. If actual coding uses sprites, then it is just a ton of duplicate sprites with a few things tweaked

Remove the Supporters/No supporters list. It just lengthens the post and serves no real purpose, considering support doesn't mean anything.

Honestly, i like the supporters/no supporters list. Anyway, Support. I try to find people looking for help and tend to find way too many show and tell topics.

I will delete the sections that are not being used, because someone wants to keep it

Support, I counted and 75% of unanswered posts on the first page were from Show and Tell.

Bump

I feel like this suggestion could possibly lead to more necroposting…

Also, yes, support and no support mean absoblutely nothing, as its the Scratch Team who decides if it should be implemented anyays.

Still want to add it

Also, this is not necroposting. It is 1 day old

No, I mean that the suggestion could cause more necroposting on other topics.

On other topics?

How could it lead to necroposting? Please explain.

A user could easily access older, unanswered topics. They could then “bump” them, causing a necropost.

You can do that anyway with the “show unanswered posts” button

Generally, Suggestions and Questions are answered more quickly than things like Project Ideas and Show and Tell, making unanswered Questions and Suggestions more likely to be older.

This is so relatable! I need this so, major support.

To stress how much we need this feature, at the time of this post, there's NO projects in the suggestions or questions sub-forum on the first page of unanswered posts.

Besides mine….
