UMANOODLE Posted May 11, 2020 Report Share Posted May 11, 2020 Hello Guys! How do I follow a topic in the boards so it will save to my 'followed content' so I can read things later? I can not seem to see a 'follow topic' button... Thanks. x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GentleLake Posted May 11, 2020 Report Share Posted May 11, 2020 On the top right of each topic's title (directly to the right of the title) is a box that says "follow" and shows the number of ppl following the topic. Click on the word "follow" and choose options from the drop down menu. You will also have to click on the black follow box at the bottom left of the menu box to activate the function. Maybe that's what you've missed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GentleLake Posted May 11, 2020 Report Share Posted May 11, 2020 From the update showing new content, it looks like you've been successful in figuring this out. I've seen a couple new messages posted under your ID that say "//Following//". This is the first time I remember ever having seen that in a thread so I'm guessing you checked off the box to show other users that you're following the topic. Suggestion: Don't check that box. It looks like it generates a new post every time you do it, which means that anyone checking for new content's going to see that extra post. Unfortunately, the only way I know of to delete unread content notices is to actually click on the entry and go to the thread, so it means everyone else will have to do that just to drop it from the new content listing. PITA. In the little follow box at the top of each topic there's a number showing how many people are following the topic, so everyone will be able to see how many ppl are following a post, but those following may choose to remain anonymous if they like.

UMANOODLE Posted May 11, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2020 Hello GentleLake, How are you? Good I hope! Okay got this now, thank you. I did the //Following// thing as it meant I could check the box on my comment! But seeing your advice and now checking it works, I know how to do this properly, shall I delete my //Following// comments? So sorry if I messed it up, I can delete? xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GentleLake Posted May 11, 2020 Report Share Posted May 11, 2020 The only way I'm aware of to delete a pot is to go to edit and erase it. There might be another way but I'm terribly not tech savvy so don't know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UMANOODLE Posted May 11, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2020 We must both be bad, as I had to make a post about deleting it and following it okay, well it is stuck there now! I can edit but can not delete! Sorry! xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
