Assuming I'm "guy!!!", I can take a shot at replying to this: when you log in, with your username and password (well, you know how that works - this thread is proof of it), you will see that any forum with new posts in it has a coloured picture next to it. All other forums (the ones without any new posts) will have a black and white picture next to it. Within each forum, threads with new posts have a small orange icon in fron of it. When you click that, you will go to the new posts immediately. All threads without new posts will remain white, without the orange icon. Maybe this helps!!! S |

By 'User CP' do you mean 'User Control Panel'? If think you've found it if you have an Avatar up. It's the 'profile' link at the top of the page. Good luck! ![]() |

Well to give you an Idea of what I am looking for, on my 3000GT Forum, our User CP shows all of your threads that you are subscribed to and shows you if any of them have new posts... As for the Profile page, yeah I found that, lol, but that was not what I was looking for... Just need a way to find all my Subscribed threads nice and easy as well as any new posts in those threads... Thanks Guy(S) ![]() DM |

There is no subscirbtion as far as I know. You could click the "View your posts" link ot the top-right of the page and see if someone posted anything there. Other than that you will have to remember the threads you posted something into - it's not that hard, trust me. Here is how I used to browse this forum: 1. Step into the first sub-forum (like "General") that has a colored image in front of it and see if there is a reply on a thread that I want to read. If there are such threads I open them in separate tabs in my browser and click the "mark all forums read" link to mark each thread (even those I didn't open in a tab), so that the sub-forum appears in B/W at the main forum page after I reload it - that tells me I have read that sub-forum. 2. Check tab-by-tab and see if there is something interesting at the end of each thread - usually I notice at once which posts are new (takes some time to get used to this). 3. I decide to reply to the threads in the tabs and close them afterwards 4. Reload the main forum page and continue at Step 1. (if there is a colored image in front of any sub-forum) |

For me they are cyan when there is a new post and red if there is a new post and the topic is popular. ![]() Maybe it is orange for people from the Netherlands only. ![]() |

No, we're talking about different icons. You're talking about the leftmost icon, which is for example an 'i' for stickies. I'm talking about a small icon in the form of a sheet of paper, which is right in front of the topicname: that one is orange ![]() |
