Possible to add "last post" info to sub-forum link at top of forums?

For instance, in Video Game Talk, it would be handy if the last post field (with the day, time and members name) displayed. It would save having to go to the forum to see if there were any new posts. There's plenty of room for it there if it's easy to implement.

Might not be a good idea for the Mature subforum.

True. That one could be left out for confidentiality reasons I suppose.

The VG trade one is the one I really want. That trade forum is pretty slow, and it would save me having to check it if there's no knew posts.

Another possible way to get around that is to just list the date and time of the last post, and not the member name.

Oh yeah. Silly me for expecting them to look the same without actually checking.

Wow, missed that since I don't go to other.

Well then, change my request, to please do the same with the VG Trade sub forum.

Heck, it looks like the VG trade subforum is the only one that doesn't have this info displayed in the link in the respective top forum. Guess it just got missed.

Maybe, but it's still the same forum software, so I'm sure the link and info could be added to the VG forum.
