Title: Finding your posts
Post by: Amgo_gnome on September 18, 2019, 12:58:09 AM
Sorry if this is a dumb question, but how do you find the thread(s) that you've posted. I posted a thread a couple of weeks ago but I couldn't remember exactly which section I'd posted in. I eventually found it but only after tediously searching for ages. I'm thinking there must be an easier way to find your original posts, but I can't see one. Is there one?

With all due respect, harizen, I think the instructions you show are a way to use in cases when we want to see posts from other people's profiles. correct me if it's wrong.

It does not matter, it's the same , whether you are viewing your own posts or another member's , you will still go through the same process , and please refrain from posting twice in a row, you should edit your first post, ask your question there and then delete the second post, in fact if I am not mistaken , what you just did is against the forum rules.

Hey @Amgo_gnome. Don't think of this as a dumb question. It's completely understandable especially that you are a newbie. And that is a good attitude—asking with something you do not know.

I'm thinking there must be an easier way to find your original posts, but I can't see one. Is there one?
Yes, there is. And it was already covered by @harizen on his reply. I suggest you follow the said steps and once you got it, then maybe this thread can be locked. :)

Thank you for reminding me mikeywith, I tried to avoid breaking the rules of this forum,, but apparently there was a thread that I missed about the forum rules.  ::)
