Notified when you get tipped

I've been tipped a bunch of coral recently, and the only way I know is I visited the threads with the posts I got coral for at a later date. Maybe there should be a thing where the next time you log in the forum displays a message saying who tipped you and the amount!

do you mean when viewing the recent tips page itself or when searching for a user?

right now I can see about 10-15 posts all with tips

Because of the way the forum database is structured, it was really infeasible to achieve what you're asking for.

I hit a dead end when trying to implement it that way because there's no post->tip correlation, only a tip->post correlation and because of that I couldn't search a users posts for tipped posts. The way it current works is it just looks through the last X TIPS (in general) and can filter by user (there's also no timestamp for tips so you can't do all tips in last X time either).

I guess I could have made the user search a separate query so that it'd go through your posts and check the tips tables for a tip associated with the posts. But the search was just something I added quickly  because it was easy (two lines) and it wasn't part of the initial plan for the tip page.
