Need Help replying to posts please

[jolovespiggies]

Hello everyone.

I am a little confused (doesn't take much) over viewing posts. I have tended to go into each subject and looked at the posts, enjoyed them very much and communicated with other members there. However is there some way of viewing all the most recent posts, from every subject all together, so I don't do anything silly like replying to something ages ago. Some of the dates seem to be random, unless again, this is me being stupid. I just want to be able to view all posts that were posted AFTER I left my computer yesterday and all the ones which have been posted the next day when I log in.

Sorry to be such a pain.

Love to all

If you look to the bottom of the main page of the forum, under all the categories, there's a box titled 'Forum Statistics' with lots of thrilling numbers about how many posts/members there are. At the bottom of this box is along titled 'View the 50 most recent posts of this forum' - that should do you! (And that's a great question btw - not a pain at all! It can be quite disorientating when new members accidentally bump lots of old threads!)

Hi Jo

In Meet the Pigs and in Pet Parade most of us tend to have one thread there that we continuously update (bit like a mini blog). I noticed that you had posted in my cat thread but I think from reading the thread that you have read the first page of the thread and then replied. The thread was started 3 years ago so to read the most recent update on it you would need to go to the final page, which in my cat thread is currently page 63. So that's how to look at an individual thread and read and reply to current stories.

If you want to view the latest posts there is a function that allows you to look at the 50 most recent posts. Scroll to the bottom of the main page to the Forum Statistics box and there you'll see highlighted in blue the option to view those 50 most recent posts.

Alternatively you can just visit each board on the forum and the most recently posted threads will be those towards the top of the 1st page. As threads are updated, threads with older posts will move down the board. The final column in the board page will tell you who the last person was to post in a thread and when they posted.

Gosh, we're an efficient administration team aren't we Lesa?!

Aren't we just! Mind you looks like you were able to answer more succinctly than I did.
