Too many layers of abstraction. I’m a close-to-the-metal kind of guy.
Looks like civilization finally caught up with us.

In both the Home Page and the Message Center, the threads should be sorted by last post date.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
More compliments: new board is SO FAST!!

Super fast!
Would it be possible to put a Read New button down the bottom of the page, maybe next to the First/Previous/Next/Last/Recent buttons?

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Yup. I don't think it is practical to add 'Message Center' and 'Read New' to the button bar with 'First ... Recent' because it won't shrink down well on mobile. But maybe I could add a second bar under it with just 'Message Center' and 'Read New'.
ION, I have now secured a certificate for buffistas.org so https://www.buffistas.org is now an encrypted connection. That means I will need to take the board down sometime tonight to switch to the real domain name. That's a bit too much to try to slip in while waiting on stuff at work.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
But maybe I could add a second bar under it with just 'Message Center' and 'Read New'.
This (or some such solution) would be great - I'm realizing now that I'm using the new board for real that I never realized just how much I depend on those two for 98% of my mindless zombie-mode board reading.

I added a very short and simple about page. In large part I just wanted to demo how pages work for admins.

Hey. New board.
Gud, I added a couple of PRs you can look at whenever. One is just readme tweaks for things i ran into getting everything running, the second adds several view options.

Cool! Too much to do during work, but hopefully I can get to it tonight.
