Now call me slow but I have just found three great little buttons on here (it's taken me over 2 years Embarassed Laughing ) but thanks to a pm from Gary I have just seen these 3 links

View posts since last visit - shows all new posts
View your posts - shows all your posts
View unanswered posts - show all posts that have received NO replies

Now I'm sure most of you will already know that they are on the top right of the main page index but I thought I'd point them out anyway Wink

Now I'm guessing there's loads hints & tips for these forums so if anyone knows any, please post on this thread and help us less web savy people Embarassed Laughing

and when you've done the new post thing...clicked a topic...read it, replied etc and want to go back to the new posts list....just click the 'back' button...not new posts again because sometimes you will lose all the ones you wanted and get only the new ones since you logged on...

get me? Laughing

another short cut I found just a little while ago is;

On the main index where it shows you the last thread posted in and the member name who posted, if you click the white box next to that member name and it redirects you to that last post.

This saves you going to the beginging of every post that you have already read.

Again I'm guessing that most of you already knew but it would be nice to think I weren't the only one to know Embarassed Wink
