    Default How to use this site

    I've been coming in and out of this forum for a while now & was just wondering a few things about using it.

    When you do a post and wish to return to it a few days later to check if anyone has replied, what is the easiest way to find it without having to search down through them all?

    If I want to see all the posts I have made, I currently do a search for my name in members then click on 'view all posts from this member' but there must be an easier way.

    I've tried bookmarking the page where I wish to return to later but when I return to it later it seems to have expired.

    Any advice would be a great help.

    Thanks

    If you click on User CP on the menus above you will see all the threads that you have posted in since the last time you logged in.

    In your use CP you can direct the board to notify you via email, when you get a reply to one of your posts.

    Ok, but there is no way of returning to the post if no-one has replied is that right?

    Click on "Search" at the top of the page, select Advanced Search. In the Search page, type your own name in the appropriate panel on the right. This will then show all threads to which you have contributed for the time period you specify.

    Andrew look at the bottom right of the user CP "View all Subscribed Threads" is what you want

    If you click on your own Avatar when in a thread that you have subscribed to it will bring up your details and there are two links. One will take you to all the threads you have subscribed to and the other one will take you to all the threads you have started.

    OK, here's one that bugs me.:mad: (Likely there is a fix that I'm unaware of.)

    When I reply to a thread, like this one, after I have posted my response, is there a simple way back to other threads without going back through the empty "reply to thread" box?

    I just click 'new posts' again.

    That's about the only button I use
    If at first you don't succeed, give something else a go. Life is far too short to waste time trying.
