Disabled the daily and weekly digest

I had to disable the daily and weekly digest that this site was sending out. The reason is some people were reporting the mail as spam, and we don't want that. Reason: The server needs to maintain a good reputation for everyone's benefit.

I'm looking at offloading the mail to a dedicated mail service, but until that happens, I'll keep this feature disabled.

Please, if you receive mail from this site, do not mark it as spam. We don't want to be sending any mail that people do not want, and we try to make it super easy to unsubscribe to any automated messages. Also, if you happen to find something from this site in your "spam" folder, please mark it as not spam.

Thanks.

P.S. There's now a "Latest Threads" link in the bar that allows you to quickly see new threads on the forum. This function shows you all new topics from the last 30 days, from most recent to least recent.

You can also just come to forum and click the New Posts link:

https://openartsforum.com/forum/find-new/4609/posts

And finally, note the "Unanswered Threads" link to find things that no one has responded to yet.

What would be super helpful, Jay, would be a link to New Work. I like to read everything, but there's so much, and sometimes I would prefer to jus skip to new work. It looks like that link takes us to all new content.
But thanks for working to make the site responsive!

Ah, I think I found a template modification for that.

Check this out:

There's now a "Latest Threads" link in the navigation bar, too.

Also note the "Unanswered Threads" link if you care to give someone some feedback who hasn't received any. :)

I wonder if there's any way to link to new works say, that have been published in the last 24 hours? Logistically, it may not be possible....it would have to slide into "latest" at some point.
If you know what I mean?
Thanks for all of this, though...

Sure. There's now a "Latest Day" link. That menu is getting crowded, though.
