Thumbs up Put the latest ClubLexus threads on your desktop.

This new ClubLexus feature will show the 25 latest threads on your desktop, ordered descending by the latest post. It will refresh itself every 5 minutes.

Just follow these steps to add this new feature to your desktop (note: these are instructions for Windows ME, so you may need to adjust the instructions accordingly).

A. Right click on your desktop anywhere but not on an icon.

B. Go to Active Desktop->Customize My Desktop.

C. Find the "Web" tab at the top. Click it.

D. Check the box next to "Show Web Content on my Active Desktop".

E. Click "New".

F. Type https://www.clublexus.com/forums/latest.php

G. Click "OK" and then "OK" again at any alerts that open.

H. Make sure the box next to the "Latest Topics" page is checked.

I. Click "Apply".

J. Click "OK".

K. Click and drag the top of the little window to change its position.

L. Click and drag the bottom, left, or right borders to resize the window.

First, GREAT WORK mike, I know you probably hear it enough, but hasn't come frome me yet. This is a great site.

2nd, I tried the above instructions on a W2k Pro box, I don't see the box with the latest topic page thingin. and it's not working for me, any suggestions?

thanks,

thanks mike! great job!

few things:

1) I'm using Win98 and you can't drag the little window in preferences. You'll need to drag the actual desktop small window to resize and re-locate.

2) Are there any ways to make it refresh more constantly? like every minute?

I'm using it on my W2K laptop - very sweet - aids in my addiction without having to constantly re-surf all the forums.
