It's not possible to be notified if there is a reply to a topic I posted on. Is that correct?

I know this has been covered many times I'm sure. This is why I find posting frustrating...

 

I was a member way before 2010 not sure why it says that either...

We can now be notified by using the" @" feature. The poster has to do this, and not simply type in a name without the @.

 

Let me know if you get this @marytoodles

Thanks for the replies.

 

@Adelina Yes, I did see your reply. But if I reply to a topic I ddi not start, and then others reply, I won't know unless the ampersand symbol is used by my name. Is that right? I haven't posted as much because I never know if there are other replies...

 Correct @marytoodles.  You will have to go back to the thread to see if there are new replies.

@marytoodles, this may also help.  When I want to see what the newest posts were on a thread I posted on, I go to the equivalent of My Activities which I have bookmarked with my browser.

 

If you don't know how to do this, here are instructions:

 

1- Type in your nic on the Search bar at the top right hand corner

 

2- Select "Users" from the drop- down menu (it is set at Community as a default)

 

3- Click on GO

 

4- Click on your post count on the information page that is brought up

 

5 - Bookmark this so as not to have to repeat this every time.

    I find the easiest way is to go back to what used to be "My Activities". When I post and I want to see what happened after my posting? I go back to that page, which is a whole different way of getting there now, and see who posted after me.

 

If you don't know how to do this, read my reply to "MindyD" about here not being able to find posts. I went step by step in that reply.

When you receive those unexpected-but-very-nice heartHeartmessages, there's sometimes a reply as well.

 

Not as useful as the previous posts on this thread; just an FYI.

I wish we got notifications when posts were added to threads of interest too.
