NavyCPO Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 Came back here to the new members forum because I'm having difficulty understanding the message boards in the various forums. As a former member of Team Camaro and Team Nova I'm used to going on to the boards and seeing the last messages posted first, but on these forums here they seem to be scattered all over the place with 2006 msgs in some cases being the first ones I see. I looked at the drop down menu's and selected Start Date from the Sort option and still they are all over the place. Also I don't know how to view my own posts as they seem to be buried somewhere in the mix with all the rest and not in chronological order. What am I doing wrong? Maybe I'm missing something but I don't see many options. Thanks in advance for your help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canuck Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 Some of the forums have a few older topics pinned to the top if they were important. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 The green pins on the left indicate it is a pinned topic. Anything after that should have the topics with the most recent activity. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance for your help! - Your settings were at 'Take me to the beginning', I've changed it to 'Take me to comments I haven't read'. New content will be highlighted in bold. See if that helps. There is an option to 'Take me to the latest comment', but the other one may be more useful as it highlights unread content first. - As far as seeing what you've posted, try looking at ''My Activity Streams' (ex. Content I started, Content I posted In, etc.), does that do what you are looking for? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyCPO Posted April 22, 2023 Author Share Posted April 22, 2023 Thank you very much! I didn't see the My Activity Tab at the top. I'll give it a whirl and let you know. Thanks again! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
