Thanks for the great tips, Anna. As I was following your steps, I discovered the Threaded option to display messages in the same General Settings area. Under Thread Display Mode, change Thread Display Options to Threaded. I am accustomed to this method of viewing from my online teaching experience. You can see who replied to specific posts to follow the discussion path.
I did notice that I got a page display error when I tried to access a thread from the Main page on the Home tab with a very high number of replies, like the Vintage Sewing Machine Shop. I tried going to that topic through the Archive link at the bottom of the page and it works because you can click on each individual starting thread. Does anyone else use this or have any thoughts?
