using desktop, when I click on "all boards" or "latest  posts" I only seem to get the ones that I have marked as favourite - have I ticked the wrong box somewhere??

    Hi  @Flugelhorn

    Thanks for flagging.

    We're aware of the issue and are investigating.
    This is still happening.

    You only see boards you have favourited under "latest posts" which is a shame as it used to work correctly on the old forum.

    Hope this can be fixed as we can't see latest posts from any board other than our favourites.

    I get all boards, not just favourites.

    As a workaround, if you view the forum on a mobile device (or reduce the width of your browser window if on a laptop/desktop) you will see the toggle to switch between 'all' and 'favourited' boards.

    We are tracking this issue and will share any further updates in this thread.

    There is also no toggle for me. I am on web all the time and there 1000% is no toggle no matter what the browser.

    Latest posts is only my favourite boards and no toggle to view all.

    I used to love latest posts but now I just don't see anything other than my favourite boards no matter what.

    No toggle anywhere as you can see in the photos. The latest posts are purely my favourites and always are since this forum update.

    I have zoomed out and no toggle. Tried another browser and still nothing.

    How weird some see all boards and others don't. I am a BG if it makes a difference?

    I have the same issue no matter how I view the forum. I only see fav boards under latest posts.

    There is also no toggle for me. I am on web 99% of the time and there 1000% is no toggle no matter what the browser.

    Latest posts is only my favourite boards and no toggle to view all.

    I used to love latest posts but now I just don't see anything other than my favourite boards no matter what.

    As I posted above, unlike you, when I click on Latest Posts I do get the latest posts on all boards and not just my favourites.
    If I reduce the width of the page until the left hand white bar disappears, then just above where it says Latest Posts, there is a drop down box giving the choice of selecting All Posts or Favourited. That drop down box is not there when the page is full width on my screen. 

    I suggest you try reducing the screen width until the white bar disappears and you may find that the drop down box will appear and allow you to change to All Posts and it will remain with All Posts when the screen is set back to full size.

    This is not done by zooming in and out but by physically "grabbing" the edge of the screen and dragging it across.

    The toggle you are looking for is the one marked  View: All (or View: Favourited) in the screenshot below.

    It only shows up when the site is in mobile mode. Either make the browser window narrower, or visit the site on a small-screen device.
