Latest posts on Discussion home page

Any chance that the list of the 5 latest posts that used to be listed on the Discussions home page could make a return?
I spend most of my time in the PowerBook 12" forum, but from time to time I'd see a topic posted in this list from another forum that I could answer.
I just thought it was nice that it gave me the chance to be exposed to random questions and posts from other forums (fora?) without having to dredge through them all myself.

I miss that, too.

Blog post at SP home page

I need to create blog post at SP 2013 home page. with this pic. should appear permanently and right of the pic post text detail should be there. Wheneven new post created it should update with new post and picture at left should remain same.
is there a way to achieve this.
If we can implement it through any webpart which one is that.
Thanks in adv !!

One way you can achieve this is using the Content by Query Web Part and custom XSLT for the web part. Go through the couple of examples below on how to roll up the blog post with custom XSLT. In your case you will be rolling up the one item i.e. the latest
blog post and then change the XSLT to display the image that you want to display with blog.

How to network install latest firefox with custom home page

I'm trying to figure out how to do a network install with the latest firefox, but customized to have the default home page setup for the companies intranet web portal. I have several thousand computers that need the installation and pushing via network is the only realistic method, but I can't find a solution on how to change the home page for this. Please help!

I update to latest version but browswer home page always tells me i am not on the latest version

this has happened several times when i have downloaded he latest version - currently the one released 21 dec 2011 i downloaded did the same - everything goes fine with the download and the older version it says is replaed - i am on a mac but that shouldn't matter i guess - what do you think

This - http://www.google.com/firefox - is the old Firefox Start Page used by the Firefox 3.6 and earlier versions of Firefox, I don't think it is being maintained by Google.
Starting with the Firefox 4 version, Firefox is using a "local" Start Page with the address of '''about:home'''. It looks similar to the old Start Page, but it isn't exactly the same.

On iPad with iOS 8.0.2 I am experiencing photos are missing on Home page of some Facebook posts when connecting to Facebook via Safari

I have noted that I am not able to view some photos of some Facebook posts on my Home page when I try to view on my iPad (iOS 8.0.2) via Safari. On some occasions I can refresh the page and some of the photos become visible, others remain the large white box with the tiny blue question mark in the center of the box. Anyone else out there with this problem? Thanx.

Your iPhone's iOS must be same or newer than the one in backups. In your case it is older so you need to update your iPhone and then recover it with backup.

I have upgraded to 6, but home page still says I am not on latest version.

I have upgraded 2 times but home page still says I am not on the latest version.

What do you have set as your homepage? The default Firefox homepage wouldn't have a message like that. Plus, you posted here with Firefox 6.0 - the latest release version.

The latest version of Firefox loads with the Ask page and doesn't retain the selected home page. How do I change this?

I downloaded the latest Firefox version. Upon loading it it doesn't retain the previous Home Page setting and always reverts to the Ask page, which is always indicated as the Home Page. This is annoying. How do I overcome this problem?

I installed the latest version of Firefox and it opens to google. I would like to use my old Sbcyahoo home page as the default page. How do I change

I installed the latest version of Firefox. The home page is now a google search box. I would like to use my old sbcyahoo desktop with its icons. I am unable to make the change.

Oops. I could have been more clear, sorry.
TOOLS > OPTIONS > GENERAL tab
Under Start-up at the top of GENERAL, you have an option to type in the url or use the tabs to set your homepage to the current page.
Go to your chosen site, open OPTIONS and click 'Use current page.'
Sorry for the shorthand version previously. I blame the cat.

Updated to the latest revision. Firefox will not display my chosen home page without clicking on home icon.

Since latest update...Firefox will not allow a new page to be opened from a link in a current page. It will allow a new tab to be opened (with tabbed browsing checked) but i prefer a new page. Even in tabbed browsing links to things like a pdf will not work at all.
Firefox WILL NOT close. X-ing out will close the window but I can not get back to Firefox without closing it in task manager.
Firefox will not display my chosen home page without clicking on home icon.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Sharepoint 2013 Discussion Board Web Part, Subject line link on Home Page does not link to the list view

I am by no means a SharePoint developer, but I really wanted to customize the discussion board for my site - so I found this link: http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/733164/How-to-create-HelpDesk-on-SharePoint-Online
I added the columns, like the article said, and then completed the section "Modification of the discussion board views". I skipped the workflow stuff because while I think it would be useful I wanted to make sure I could get
the actual customization of the discussion board to work first.
My Problem (Just to preface - I followed the above instructions, including disabling the Minimal Download Strategy):
When I clicked into my discussion board list, I was able to get it to look and function as described for both the subject and flat views. However, when I click on the Subject, from the Discussion Board Web Part on my Home Page, it does not redirect into the
Discussion Board List Flat View. Instead, it tries to open the root folder from the Home Page while still using the subject view. The outcome being an empty discussion board on the Home Page.
So I decided to create a whole new discussion board to see if that one would work, when I inserted a new Discussion Board Web Part into the Home Page, newly created from the app menu, it used the same custom JS file(plumTickets), even though I never linked
the discussion board to the JS file. Of course when I went into the newly created Discussion Board list it opened as it does OOTB.
I am so close it having this work like I have been envisioning. I just need users to be able to click on a discussion subject from the Home Page and be redirected to the list view of the parent folder (I think that is the correct terminology,
but it may not be) so they would be able to see any replies and be able to reply. Please Help Me!!!
I truly appreciate any help you are able to provide, thank you!

I figured it out. I was using ?FilterField1=fieldname&FilterValue1=value on the URL to the page to pick out one project number. The web part I was trying to add was for a list that did not have that particular fieldname. I didn't realize that would matter
since I was using the Connections -> Get Filter Values From to get my filter values from the main web part, which does have that fieldname.
I added a field with that fieldname to the other list and set a workflow to copy the lookup value of the project number lookup field into the new field. Now all is working fine. Sorry for the wild geese in my original question.

Firefox now always opens four tabs when I start it. (home page, plus three latest add-on updates)

I updated Firefox and all the add-ons. Since that time, Every time Firefox is opened, it always opens four tabs.
One is my home page. One says Firefox has been updated. The other two are the notices for two add-ons that were updated.
It all began at the time I last updated my "Version-Three-Point-Something-Something..."
I tried upgrading to the latest version of Firefox.
This did not change my problem.
Thanks for your time.
NS

I've tried all your suggestions. Thanks.
No change occurs when I try resetting the home page to "default."
It still opens my home page www.google.com and those other tabs.
I tried the steps in the article. No change.
I've also tried removing the addons and reinstalling them.
No changes - except that one or two fewer tabs pop up.
I have noticed that every restart of Firefox includes a "checking for compatibility of addons" pop-up.
In Add-ons Manager, I can un-check the "Update Add-ons Automatically."
Again, no change.
I was able to capture a few screen shots for you.
Thanks for your patience with me.

The Last Post column on forum home page

Is it my imagination, or does the Last Post column keep appearing and disappearing from the forum home page?
I've seen it a few times, I think, but then it vanishes.

what I can see is the difference between those two links :
http://forums.oracle.com/forums/main.jspa?categoryID=84
http://forums.oracle.com/forums/category.jspa?categoryID=84
Hmmm...interesting.
When I'm reading a forum and want to go to the main Forum Home page, I click on the "Forum Home" link in the upper left corner of the page (just under the Oracle logo).
The link has this url: http://forums.oracle.com/forums/index.jspa?categoryID=84 which is slightly different than the two you posted.
When I click on it, I end up at the first link you posted. But sometimes I see the Last Post column and sometimes not.
