AlanKlein Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 How do you get back to a thread you already reviewed? What happens is when I first log on, I have a list of all threads that have new posts since the last time I visited the site. If I look at one of the topics, and then want to go back later in the day or just click page back, it's removed from the list. In the old system it was still there to look at again. So my question is how do you find that topic thread again? Flickr gallery: https://www.flickr.com/photos/alanklein2000/albums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dustin McAmera Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 (edited) I think I remember that happening before the change; I was always careful to open threads in a new window, so as not to upset the 'Unread posts' window. Here, at the top-left of the Unread window, you should see 'Home >Activity >Unread content'. If you click on the word Activity, it shows you a list of all recent activity; it now includes entries for Likes, new members registering, etc. as well as forum posts.

Leslie Reid Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 You can also get to "all activity" by hovering your mouse over the "Forums" tab at the top of the screen; a drop-down will appear that gives you several choices. (Note that clicking on the down-arrow takes you to the list of Forums instead) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leslie Reid Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 BTW, you can also set "all activity" as your default stream: when you're in "all activity", there will be a button to the right of the title that says "stream options"; click on the down arrow to choose set as default. That will give you a button under your name at the top of the screen that takes you directly to "all activity." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandy Vongries Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Clicking the arrow at the left will let you manage blocks that will appear on the right. You can have All Activity as a choice, and a variety of other things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PapaTango Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 (edited) Leslie is correct. If there is a particular thread you want to keep track of, look on the right side of the topic name header banner and note the "follow" button. Using this, you can temporarily or permanently watch (or be notified) of any activity on that page--and it will appear in the site header banner as a dropdown selection under your name, under "Manage Followed Content". Easy to delete also. Everyone should check out their profile and account preferences to set how they want to be notified of various things! Edited October 9, 2022 by PapaTango 1 "I See Things..."

How do you do signatures? I would like to have my Flickr page link in each my posts if someone wants to reference my photos. I don't keep separate photos here in PN.

I am doing a cut and paste and adding my own here, but adding one's information is accomplished in the user Profile that you obviously know how to use! We just need to give them time, keep making requests, and hope that such things are within the vision of what @mjensen wants to accomplish... 😎 "I See Things..."

samstevens Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 (edited) When you tell us about a new function, can you tell us where to locate it? I've been looking for the "signature" form you posted above but can't seem to find it. I assumed it would be under profile and personal info, but it's not. Or, are these, perhaps, Pro only features? Thanks. Edited October 14, 2022 by samstevens "You talkin' to me?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlanKlein Posted October 14, 2022 Author Share Posted October 14, 2022 OK found the signature section. It had the old stuff but I modified it. Thanks. Alan. Flickr gallery: https://www.flickr.com/photos/alanklein2000/albums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PapaTango Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 While I am still looking for Jesus, I suddenly have a new faith in our future administrative path--given the most recent changes!
