What if you've made a post at Geeks to Go, but are no longer able to find it?

1) Don't create a new post. That's a duplicate post, and requires more work from us as we have to view another topic, and close it.

2) Click the My Topics link in the upper right-hand corner of the screen:


It will list your topic(s) in chronological order.

Still can't find your topic? Send a PM to an admin or moderator for assistance.

Not to be making a point... but I can't find it. Is this tutorial outdated?

I believe that is only there for people who are only members of the forum. Since you're in GeekU, that may not be there - I don't have it either, but I recently had someone who was a member show me a screenshot with that on it.

Sounds fair, but it may be usefull for everyone to have it, save us going the long way round.

Hi everyone , just thinking to myself while reading this thread that aren't a lot of these features such as , "your last post" , or "replies to your posts" controlled by cookies ?

I generally delete cookies when closing my browser , but for certain sites I hang on to them so I can use such features . Am I of track with this line of thought ?

Your last post, and replies to your post are stored in the server database, not in a cookie. This allows the same access from multiple systems.

Hope this helps.
