Where to Find Your Activity

ciao_bella — Wed, 17 Jun 2015 23:36:24 GMT

Where can you find your previous posts? Your Activity used to be at the top of the page and it was very easy find your previous posts and check to see if others answered your posts.

I'm not liking this new platform at all.

@ciao_bella,

Here's the info from my thread entitled:

Thanks to @debc!

She posted instructions in "Q Talk."

Similar to "My Activity" this method allows you to find not just your "original threads" (threads you started), it also allows you to see the ones to which you responded.

The thread is titled "Search your own posts" and you'll see instructions, an illustration, and questions/answers.

Here's a copy of her original post:

"The search button has a drop down menu and users is one of them. Just type in your user name and go. It will take you to your name with information. One of that is a thought bubble with the number of posts you have. That is clickable."

First, choose a forum.

Then, look just above all the threads, below the words "View All Forum Topics | View All Blogs" and above the word "Subject."

You'll see a red box with "NEW MESSAGE" in it.

Click that, type in a topic and the body of the message and choose any of the options in the tool bar across the top of your message, and click POST.

I can't find my "thought bubble"?

In the "Welcome Get Started " category, they said the "my activity" is being improved so we will see everything we've posted.

@MyShadowLove, type your nickname in the search box.

Then, where you see the default "Community" click the tiny down-arrow to the right of it.

Select "Users."

Then click the word "GO."

I noticed that, @Penellope! I hope they get around to it soon.

Yes, dooBdoo...When I search my nic, click on "users" and then "go", there are three other posters that also show up who have "wildflowers" as part of their nics...So, I have to click on my profile, and I think that is why I am not able to see my "thought bubble"?...I read where it is not located in our profile and there is no way I can avoid my profile, due to the other three posters who are making it impossible for me!...lol

Yes, there are 3 nics which contain the string "wildflowers." But if you click on your name, it will take you to your profile and you're right -- there's no "thought bubble" there.

You need to click on the bubble or the number of posts to the right of it. That will take you to all of your previous activity.

(in your case, clicking there will take you to this page: http://community.qvc.com/t5/forums/recentpostspage/post-type/message/user-id/57632)

hth!

By the way:

For the time being, it might be helpful for us to add a bookmark (add to "favorites") to our browser (Firefox, IE, Chrome, Safari, etc.) for our "activity" page after we find it.

Eventually, I hope the PTB will correct things and place that info on our profile.

dooBdoo...Aha!!!!...I tried it again, per your instructions, and clicked on my post counts to the right and Voila'!

Thank you so much for your help and patience tonight!

Testing to see if it works. I have tried, to no avail.

Re: ...

I am on Firefox, and I did double click on my name, and found activity.. But there are none of my recent posts. I posted in this thread, then went to my activity. There are old original posts, and "heart" posts.. But none of the recent posts I made are there. Or, I can't find them. I tell, you this is an awful experience. This whole format is not consumer friendly, nor is it logical. It seems the people who designed it have never even used the old board, and must be 20 years old. JMHO, and I am stickin' to it!

You have to go through the search to find your posts.

shoekitty...At top of page, in "search box", type your nic...then click the arrow in "Community box" and hit "users"...then click on "Go"...Your nic and avatar will show...over to right, you will see your "post numbers"...click on that and all of your activity will show.

I goofed up when I hit on my nic and it took me to my profile...It won't work if you do that...Just stay on the page that appears after you hit "Go".

I hope this is clear!

Has anyone else noticed that, when you use the "search" and "users" features to find your activity, your IP address also shows up?...I'm not sure if this is just visible to us or to others also?

I haven't been logged on for a couple of days and just noticed this tonight...Could someone check for me and let me know if my IP address is visible?...Never know what surprises we may find each day when logging on.

Wild flowers, I cannot see your IP address. I do see mine though.

@MyShadowLove, We only can see our own IP address.

But it's always good to ask about these things. Never know when a website will have "holes" in the security.
