DawnCavanaugh Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 Hello Family, If you haven't wandered around the Forum Help file (accessed by clicking on the link at the bottom of a page) you may not know what the symbols beside the posted threads mean. Learning that can help you follow your favorite topics, keep up with new posts, as well as spot threads that you haven't visited yet. Here's an explanation: The Topic ListWithin each forum there are a list of topics. Just like forums, each topic has a marker to indicate the type of topic it is: A regular topic in which you've not read any posts. This is a topic which you have participated in, with no new replies since you last read it. This indicates that you have previously replied in this topic, and there are new replies since you last read or replied to the topic. Hope this helps!

Quilting Heidi Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 Thanks Dawn that is helpful. Now can you tell me how I can make myself remember that? LOL I guess I'll add this to my favorites so I can refer back to it until it gets implanted in my brain! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bekah Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 Thanks Dawn. I still don't know how to make something a favorite but then I haven't explored very much either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawnCavanaugh Posted February 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 Bekah, "Follow this Topic" replaces the "favorites" button now. Click on that and you will add the thread to your list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srichardson Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 Hi Dawn, When I first read a new thread with a solid blue circle but do not leave a comment I can return later, click on the solid blue circle and be taken directly to the first new comment rather than having to scroll through the whole thread to find my previous place. It is a great time saver and an improvement over the old system! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
