I love the sub forum. I think it's hilarious. I just want to parse out the lolz.

Same here.

Tom has set it up so all of the Sheepdog247 threads will have a "SD247" prefix. This should make it easier to distinguish them when using the New Posts feature.

Unfortunately, it appears Tapatalk does not display the prefixes in thread titles. That's a Tapatalk issue and not one we can resolve internally.

[ToddG]

Sure enough. I can confirm that option exists in the Android version of Tapatalk.

Thanks, Tom!

When I hit the "new posts" button and sheepdog stuff overwhelms everything else, PF runs the risk of becoming like those high bandwidth "jokes" that people forward me, clogging up my in box.

Here's how you can get a "What's New?" page that excludes some sections. If you want a filtered view, bookmark the modified link, rather than using the "What's New?" link we provide.

If you load the main PF page, you'll see the links to each section. In the URL is a number which represents the section. For example, the Romper Room is 12, and SheepDog is 56:

http://pistol-forum.com/forumdisplay.php?12-Romper-Room

http://pistol-forum.com/forumdisplay.php?56-Ask-Sheepdog247

You can exclude 12 and 56 in a search for new posts by using this url:

http://pistol-forum.com/search.php?do=getnew&exclude=12,56&contenttype=vBForum_Post

Thank you very much for the info, JV.

Should come in handy at some other boards I attend as well!

Brilliant!
