currently my site goes to the news page as I'm sure many XOOPS sites do but I was thinking that what id like is for there to be a page that lists across the board (site) all the new content additions since the user last logged on. Does such a thing exists or would it be hard to hack together an item that would go under the main menu called for example 'Updates'
I know that you can have the last 5 posts or whatever from many content sections and stick em on the news page but I think this allthoug useful looks really messy

cheers for the good work

Have a look at this link HERE
for bopcomments

One small point ... it does not list content specific to a users last visit. If anyone could do a hack on that it would be really cool. Another nice addition here would be

"Welcome {x_user} there has been the following activity on the website since your last visit on XXXXXX

Now in to the updates list...

well incase anyone is interested ive installed this module and it pretty much does everything I needed - apart from the personalisation but that's for another day.

Renamed the module and some other bits and its now called updates and fits in quite nicely.. Took a while to work out how to remove some of the updated sections bits but you basically remove them from the plugins folder and that's that.
Shame there is no obvious way to alter the order it lists the sections but maybe that's guna be in a later version

Glad this was useful hal9000. Works well on your site too! If ever you do the hack to make it into a welcome block, please post back!
