I edited the links in your first comment, so now the URLs should be correct at least. Not sure if we'll change the behavior of the "View unanswered posts", but well, we'll see. ;) Another tip is to use search_id=unsolved_topics to search for unsolved topics, for example <a href="http://forum.kde.org/search.php?search_id=unsolved_topics&fid[]=106" rel="nofollow">http://forum.kde.org/search.php?search_id=unsolved_topics&fid[]=106</a> to search for unsolved topics in "KDE Software Forum". @Matt Williams:

They need to have the square brackets after the &fid and before the equals sign. i.e ...search_id=unanswered&fid[]=106 Ok, so those links I posted got mangled by Drupal.

For example, <a href="http://forum.kde.org/search.php?search_id=unanswered&fid[]=106" rel="nofollow">http://forum.kde.org/search.php?search_id=unanswered&fid[]=106</a> will only search the "KDE Software Forum". To search more than one forum, put as many 'fid[]' arguments as you want, e.g. <a href="http://forum.kde.org/search.php?search_id=unanswered&fid[]=106&fid[]=109" rel="nofollow">http://forum.kde.org/search.php?search_id=unanswered&fid[]=106&fid[]=109</a> to search "KDE Software" and "Localized Forums". You find out the id of a forum by going to http://forum.kde.org, clicking on the forum you want to search and looking at the URL. The '&f=' gives you the id.
