Re^2: Is there a way to get a list of the most recently-updated tutorials here? by crumbly (Sexton) on Jun 19, 2009 at 04:17 UTC
Thanks. Though, I'm not sure I understand. Do you mean that one should do the following: Go to the "Super Search" page. Click the checkbox to only search in the Tutorial section. Select "Don't include replies". Hit the "Search" button (note: you haven't put any text to search for in any of the text fields). ? If so, that would show results sorted by creation date (rather than last-modified date), correct?	[reply]

Do you mean that one should do the following: Yes, although the following will do the first three for you. If so, that would show results sorted by creation date That's what I said. Not that there's much if any difference between sorting by creation date and sorting by modification date.	[reply]

Minor refinement: exclude spam owned by NodeReaper href://?node_id=3989;xa=1;a=NodeReaper;re=N;Tu Still not very user-friendly, though.	[reply]

Still not very user-friendly, though. Intentionally so. Since searching is very expensive, the devs want to not create a means of launching a search from a link.	[reply]

They don't want to create a means of launching a search from a link? But that's exactly what ordinary bracket links like pess or morn do if they don't match a title exactly.	[reply]

Agreed, but publication of a new tutorial is a very "rare event". A lazy mechanism that updates a list of recent tuts whenever a new tutorial is published could solve both problems - the OPs request (user-friendly embedded in Tutorials) and keeping the DB load small.	[reply]
