via my bookmarks...I use to enter the forums with "view new threads"

now I'm trying to find the difference between "new posts" and "recent posts". I'm thinking recent post will include new posts. ??? new posts that have been replied to ?

I also noticed a cool feature the other day. I started to respond to thread via my phone....typing got cumbersome so I went to the computer to start over.......everything I had started on my phone was on my PC...waiting to be added to/completed.

MEDIA: is this area generated automagically via folks posting to their own photo photo albums. ? then getting pooled together?

new posts = your unread posts
recent posts = all new posts including ones you have read (if they have a dot by them you have unread posts there)

It will save post reply in progress to a draft. What a great feature, how many times on the other board after 10 minutes of typing and reference and then, ugggg, hit the wrong button and lost it all

media - this is like photo albums, you can upload your photos either to a private or public album

if you do @justason it will send that person an alert that they have been mentioned and can easily check it out, also # hastag does something but I haven't figured that out yet!

THANKS Scott....All hail the blue dot ..

the floating "back to top" button is welcome..........and I think regardless of which of those two selections, clicking on the title brings you where you left off last.....clicking on the date below the last poster...brings you to the end overall..

How Did the pilgrims get by...my-gawd !!???!?!?

I use "New Posts" mostly, unless I reply to a post or read a post then think..."huh I should have said...", then I click on "recent posts" to re-find the post as it is now "read"

Yes...love the floating "Back to top"

The software running this forum is the best out there. I have been working on message boards for business since 1998 and this is by far the best release of forum software yet.
