Include only one category in New Posts menu

[maryx]

I have two drop down boxes under New Posts now.

What code would give me a third drop down box called Only Shopping. This New Posts choice would have posts only from one category of the forum - the Shopping category. The forum ID of this category is 27

Thanks for your help!

Add the following to the popups menu:

<tr><td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="search.php?$session[sessionurl]do=getnew&amp;include=27" accesskey="2">Shopping Only</a></td></tr>

You don't really need this for only one forum. Your members can simply visit this forum and see which posts are new.

Well, yes, but . . this is actually a category with 7 sections (forums). I ended up using include=1,2,3,4,5,6,7
worked great!
Using the ID for the category didnt work.

I really appreciate your help - sometimes the simple things are the hardest!

I think you have to add "&child=1" for it to include child forums.
