OK Thanks ethanz.

OK Thanks ethanz.

Yes, that appears to work since you just replied and I got an alert.

Please like my post so I get some trophies

 

[ethanz]

At least this way all those silly mirrorless threads we posted on last week are not followed for alerts right now.

 

[Loswr]

Where did the top right 'show replies to threads you have participated in' (forgive me, I don't recall the exact verbiage) link go? How do I stay on top of threads I'm currently part of?

Click/tap the menu icon at the top left. The ‘new posts’ option has the same behavior as the prior ‘show unread posts’ option at the top right of the old format.

That would be lovely, but no dice.

I can't drill down on the up/down '^' symbol next to Forums or Blog. It's frozen for me:



No idea if this is a bug (I'm on MacOS High Sierra + Firefox) or perhaps our new Administrator has more access privileges than we do?

Same here.

I may have figured it out. I don't know if you can see the new ones since yesterday until now, but you can setup it up so you can see new replies starting now.
Go to alerts on top right of screen -> preferences -> content options -> check Automatically watch content you create… and Automatically watch content you interact with…
Then I think it will give you an alert each time someone replies to a thread you have replied to.

Will use this for now, but I am afraid that hitting like on something coupled with 'automatically watch content you interact with...' might blow out my queue. I'll skip that one for now.

But I just turned on the 'watch what I create'. Good looking out, thanks.

I suspect a desktop vs. mobile issue. When logged out, I can still drill down into the Forum submenu, on my iPad (which is the source of the screenshot above) and iPhone. But on my Mac (High Sierra + Safari), I cannot open that submenu. I guess for now the ‘better optimized for mobile’ is a little too well optimized.

I know the admins are all busting their butts today to make this as seamless a move as possible.

I appreciate everything everyone is doing! (I cross my fingers a major piece of news doesn't drop today.)

Same for me Adam. Mac 10.10 + Firefox and I get no drop down under "Forums"

And with Safari and Chrome on High Sierra. Just checked.

Neuro's hypothesis is likely correct. Hey, your 'automatically watch content I create' appears to be working as a bypass for now.

Thanks Ethanz, I guess since it's only from this point forward I had to write this post to test it, let's see!

I've turned that on yet see no change.

 

[ethanz]

Does your preferences page look like this?

 

[ahsanford]

Hmmm... I'm getting alerts on being quoted, but not on general replies to threads I am participating in.

Let me turn on 'interact with' and see if that sorts it.

[ethanz]

And I will post here so you can test it.

 

[ahsanford]

And FYI to admins -- I'm guessing you already know -- that clicking on the forum link under each blog post just dumps you into the main forum home page (and not the thread for the post in question).

No dice again. I think we just need to get the desktop version working like it does on mobile platforms.

No worries, our best people are on it.
