Just checking the new format

It'll take me a bit to learn the new format. But there's one thing I can't find. We used to be able to click on our name and a menu would pop up. There was something like " previous posts", which listed your latest posts. Since I dispense so much great stuff, I used that menu daily. Otherwise, it's hard to keep track of the gems, which are my posts. I don't know how to get that menu. thus I'm depriving the forum members a reason to log on. So for the sake of all, who log on, how do I get that "previous post" thing?
 

Fuzzy, LOL! Not only are we deprived of a reason to log on, we're deprived of a reason for living! And somebody had to say it. :rolleyes:

Seriously, I mentioned this already in another thread, but I'll say it again: Thanks, Matrix, for the feature that reminds us that we are sending a reply from an earlier set of posts when there are later ones that we may have overlooked. That;s a nice feature.

Click on your avatar at the top, a window with many links related to your account pops up, one of them is "your content".

I like the new website, except most of my former posts are showing up in such tiny lettering even though I had made it a point (once I learned how) to use bigger lettering.

Near the top, next to the New Posts tab, there is a Find Threads tab, use the drop down arrow to choose your threads or threads with your posts or unanswered threads.

If you click on Menu (top Left) you’ll get these choices. That’s how I find all my previous posts and threads.

An interesting perspective from me. Before the switch, Matrix told us about a couple other of his forums that he had switched over. I checked out the Natural Health one, and joined. I was not too impressed at that time, but I think it was because it was a different forum, and not the format.
With OUR forum, after a few days now, I have become more comfortable with it, and have handled the transiting well. For me, I am wondering if it is because it is a familiar forum, with familiar threads and people. I do not handle completely new well.
Sorry, Matrix, I probably will not go back to the Natural Health one. Mainly because it is to specific in its topics and threads. I like that SF is more general and less specific, except that is geared to us seniors.
Back years ago I maintained several different forum memberships with ease. Now that I have other places to go on the web, and spend lesd time online, I just prefer spending my time between a few sites, and not going all over.
