Is there a tutorial on using these forums? I know, I am from the Stone Age. I mean, I know computers pretty well and use the everyday, but I have never really been a part of a forum. I don’t know how to copy and reply to a specific message like some do. I think I figured out how to find replies to my messages….. Sometimes I am looking at messages and then realize they were from months ago🤪

Welcome. I don’t think there is a tutorial or help materials (Alex will probably let us know if there is) but you seem to be doing pretty well so far. You’ve started a thread. Responded to other posts. Set up your stats in your profile. This was my first forum too but it didn’t take long to work it out.

People here are always happy to share hints & tips on how to get the best out of the forum. So never be afraid to ask. We’re always happy to help, share experiences, offer support, etc. on any question or topic you raise. 😁

As to your specific questions: You can quote a post by selecting the quote button at the bottom of the specific post you want to respond to & this will appear in a box in your response text box. The date a thread began can be found under the thread title & with who started the conversation. Each post also has the date it was posted in response too.

You can follow conversations in threads you responded to by selecting the three horizontal lines in the top right hand corner & then clicking the world icon. If you want to follow a thread without responding, click the pink follow button under the name of the person who began the thread. Most recent threads are listed near the bottom of the home page. Also you can edit your post for a short period of time by clicking the edit button under your post. And you can add pxts to a post by choosing click to choose files.
