...get back to the "unread topics" list after you have posted a reply to one of them?

I've been going all the way back through entering my post, all the pages and finally back to the list by clicking on the "back arrow" at the top of my browser window.

Same for any list, like "pictures" I think.

Thanks! :hunf:

Can't you just click on "my posts"? That should bring up all of the posts that you have made starting with the most recent. Then click the back arrow to take you back to unread topics. Good luck. patti

Thanks, guys, but having replied to one, does that automatically remove it from my unread list?

If I skip over some without reading, I guess they'll still be on the list, huh?

I'll give it a try! Thanks again!

Are you wanting to get back to the list of topics so that you can look at another one?

If so, most browsers support multiple tabs. Instead of left-clicking on the topic, right-click and select the "open in new tab" option (may be worded slightly different depending on browser). You can do this for several topics at a time. Then just click across the tabs, read each topic, comment if desired, and then close the tab by clicking on the X in the corner of it.

When you've read and closed all the topics you picked, you should be back to 1 tab that has the unread topics or pictures or whatever list.

That clicking back is exactly what I'm trying to avoid! But thanks!

Once you have posted to it or read it, the post will move to your topic log. If you follow your chains, by watching them you can get an email when other activity happens on that topic

Thanks everyone! Nancy, that's what I needed, but you all got me there. Was getting to be a pain to reply!

Does this work for replying to other posts, like main or pictures?
