Configuring auto-bumping for topics

Hello, this is a suggestion: would it be possible for bumped topics to have an icon in front of the title, for example, which could be this one :repeat_button: , so as to clearly indicate to site visitors that a topic has been bumped before they click on it and find out? Some visitors may only want to read new topics, and not old topics that have been automatically bumped up.

Am I understanding correctly that 1 is the minimum number of posts to bump daily?

We have a “resources” category and I thinking bumping one of these every 4 days would be enough. Otherwise there would be a new bump every single day, and that feels like it would overwhelm the feed.

I tried putting .25 for the frequency, but after saving it was erased.

Am I missing something?

I’d assume the setting “Number of open topics to automatically bump daily” requires an integer. The code wouldn’t likely cope with a fraction of a topic.

If you wanted to make a feature request, maybe what you’d be looking for is a two-part setting: “Automatically bump [ ] topics every [ ] days.”

(Or perhaps this is something a plugin could do.)

Yes, I’d be more inclined to a number and duration setting, like x posts per day/week/month. But your idea is probably better.

I was just hoping I misunderstood the setting and one a day is the minimum for auto-bumping of posts by categories.
