Think. Again.

Something odd is happening when I open any reply on the "my posts" page....

When I look at the "my posts" page to see replies to my posts, and then click on any of my posts that have replies listed on them, the page that opens and usually has that particular post highlighted also has multiple random posts by others also highlighted.

The oddly highlighted posts are not in any order and don't seem to have anything in common, and they are not all mine.

Is there a clitch being worked on by Admins?

8 replies = new reply since forum marked as read
Highlight: NoneDon't highlight anything 5 newestHighlight 5 most recent replies

But at the top there is a newest /none/ recommended boxes if you click newest it highlights like the last five posts. None will highlight nothing.

My problem is when someone Rokus to my post if the thread gets busy and multiple replies to my post and others sometimes I have a hard time following what my replies are
I’d like a my replies highlighted.

This may be a just me problem😀


BTW I like your user name we kinda match😀

If you sorta copied my name I feel proud it was good enough someone liked it.


My came in part because at the time
I signed up
I had one co worker esp that always told me
I think to much
Or
“Your thinking too much again”

Think. Again.

If on desktop, the buttons will say:

Highlight: NONE | 5 NEWEST | RECOMMENDED

If on mobile, the word "Highlight" will not appear.

If you select "None" you will see no highlighting, if you select "5 newest" the five most recent replies will be highlighted, and if you select "Recommended" then any reply with five or more recs will be highlighted.

Hope that helps.

It was ignored.

But the second problem I wrote about is still there. All of our stars have disappeared. There is nothing next to our names. Anybody want to comment on that?
