Hi - I have a quick question!  I logging in earlier this afternoon and had 40+ "unread posts"  and got through about 10 or so and when I logged back-in tonight to go through the rest -     all the ones I did not get to were GONE - I only had 3-which were from the ones I went through earlier.  Is there a way to "keep" the other ones for the "next log-in?"  I am assuming this is why I miss SOOOOOOO many "new posts!!!!!!!" Just checking    

   I think Elizabeth's idea is a good one.   

I sometimes miss posts this way as well.

Thanks - Mikla

If you click twice on the "Unread Posts" button, you should get all unread posts (since you clicked "Mark Read") regardless of latest login time.

Don't try it with babies. My son did not like it at all. 

I never click anything "Mark Read" so this isn't really clear to me.  I read messages and the system knows whether I have read them or not.  What am I missing?

Well, there's recent posts and unread posts at the top. If you read them logged out and logged back in, you'd see the new ones.

If you want to see all the new ones for the day, just click

Recent posts

I never click 'unread posts' or 'recent posts' to keep up with threads - Ihave found that I will take a post out of context or miss the gist/humor in the rest of the thread.  I tend to just go to each board and click on the 'new' link in the title of each of the threads that I am interested in.  It takes me right to all the posts I haven't read and I can read through the whole conversation and comprehend and enjoy the whole dialogue.  It doesn't take much to keep on top of it.  I know when I have read everything as I see the orange hearts next to each board.  When something is new there, it's says 'new' instead.  That might be a better way for you to keep up Elizabeth.
