Hi Celia,

There are a few things you can do to help you find posts that have gone walkabout:

Use the Search Button.  all you need to do is enter a few words you are sure were in the message,  preferably rarer ones,  and you can also limit your search to certain boards to narrow it down.

View User Postings.  If you know it is a thread  that a certain person contributed to,  access their profile and select,  View Last Posts.

View 100 last posts.   If it was a recently replied to post,  click on the RootsChat logo,  and you will see the last 100 posts listed.

View your own posts.  If you contributed,  access your own profile and select View Last Posts.

I hope this helps.  ;D

If anyone else has a favourite way of finding things,  let us all know.  8)

Once you've posted on thread the 1st little icon on the left turns yellow, so you know which thread you've made a post in.

Thank You Fitty ;D

I was viewing a page last night and noticed that I was the only one with a yellow folder thingamy at the side.
                                  ???   

I thought I was doing something wrong - or neglecting to do something right.

Now I know I am just stoopid!! :-[
