DU Update: We just uploaded a new minor patch
The patch contained a number of small layout tweaks throughout the site (you might not even notice most of them to be honest). There is one improvement that you probably will notice though -- we've included a "Recs" column on your Posts page.
The Recs column will show you the number of recommendations that each post has -- and yes, this includes recommended replies as well as OPs, so you can see at a glance how many recs your replies have. We hope to continue adding more functionality to reply recs going forward.
The Posts page functionality has not otherwise changed -- you will still only be notified (the Posts tab will light up) when you get a new reply, NOT when you get a new rec.
AS ALWAYS: Whenever we upload new code, there's a change that things might bug out. If you experience any glitches or issues as a result of this latest patch, please send me a DU Mail directly, or post a message in the DU Community Help forum.
Thanks for reading
