[SOLVED] Recent Posts (Active Topics) only shows last 24 hours

The recent posts (Active Topics) search ( https://dev1galaxy.org/search.php?action=show_recent ) only shows posts from the last 24 hours which I consider too little as I'm not always visiting once every 24 hours.

On other forums this usually shows active topics from the last 7 days and often it is user configurable to show even longer periods (30 days or even more).

Would it be possible to at least increase "Active Topics" to 7 days?

The other search "new posts since your last visit" isn't a valid alternative for me as sometimes I want to revisit a thread that I was reading a few days ago and that didn't get any posts since, so it wouldn't show in this search, but it would show in "Active Topics" if "Active Topics" was covering at least 7 days.

Increasing "Active Topics" to 7 days would probably increase user activity (including helpful replies to support questions) on this forum as people who don't visit daily would see more recent threads than as is currently the case.

You could try adding a value parameter on the query string and bookmark that for a personalized experience.

To elaborate on Ralph's answer, that value parameter is in seconds.  So to get your desired 1-week setting, the url to bookmark would be https://dev1galaxy.org/search.php?actio … lue=604800

Great, thanks, that's exactly what I was looking for.
