Adding New Topic to Recent page.

[a_5mith]

So I've just updated to master and breathing in all the changes. Some manic additions that look amazing!

Thus far, I've set my home page to be Recent, and updated the navigation for a categories link, I want to make the Recent Page a bit more user friendly by adding a New Topic button, and a search/filter for tags, almost like a quick search. What's the best way to achieve this without hashing the core files?

Now that New Topic buttons have the ability to change the category it's posted to, having a one page design seems within reach now. Just think a filter and that New Topic button is all that's left.

I want to add the new topic button to /recent for a while now. Just haven't gotten around to it yet.

@baris Well that would be lovely.

Would it be possible to add a filter search that filters topics based on entered tags? Or would additional work be required first?

Filtering based on a single tag is already done at https://community.nodebb.org/tags/nodebb doing that with multiple tags a bit trickier.

Thought as much.

@baris Just like in the post https://community.nodebb.org/topic/3834/some-bugs-i-ve-noticed/5
"Filtering based on a single tag" needs in the same filtering also

That would be awesome. A sorting system with tabs to show only posts by categories would be nice as well if it's possible.

https://community.nodebb.org/recent has the new topic button now.

As for adding a dropdown to filter the topics on /recent by category that should be doable as well.

You da maaaan.

I imagined something like that for filtering by categories. The active tab would be bigger than the others.
