I keep losing my place switching from topic to topic. I can't always get back using my "back" button so I have to start all over at Main and re-find my topic again. Better way?

click on Recent topic or bookmark that topic?

Linda, I hit the watch button all the time. I get email notices when someone adds a new post. Last week I deleted thousands of emails (not all from here) Gmail keeps your stuff forever if you don't delete it. I need to go to bed. I'm starting to ramble........ hee hee

If this is a topic that you started then all you have to do is click on my topic towards the top of the screen and it will take you to your list of topics. The same goes for my posts, use this one if you are looking for someone else's topic that you commented in.

Got another suggestion for you if you are wanting to move back and forth thru a certain topic's pages then use the page numbers on the top and bottom right side of the page this will be easier than hitting the back arrow at the top left of the screen. I had to come back and tell you this because it just dawned on me what you were asking. Sorry it is late.

Hey, it's okay. I try to do that, too. I like the "Topics" button. Works good for me. Thanks for the lessons.

Another place to check: Click on "Topic Log" at the top. It will show the topics you have looked at since you were logged on that session. Those disappear when you log off. That might help.

I always start with the UNREAD topics. When you're done reading just click on UNREAD topics again. It'll delete the one you just read.

IF I have time I then check RECENT topics...for new posts to topics that I may have read before.

Almost daily I click "Mark all as read" tab. That erases everything and you start out fresh the next time you sign in.
