Flagging unreadposts & dragging quotes

xs1961

(1)Just lately when I check out the forums Ive noticed hardly any (or none) of the red folder symbols in the left-hand column are highlighted so I have to keep scanning down & checking dates/times to catch up with the latest/freshest topics/answers/threads..
(2) Can someone please explain to me again (simply /Haynes style !) how to add /drag a yellow box quote from a previous post to my own ? Thanks Embarassed

1> Maybe you're not logged in? The red folders only show if you are.

2> Hit the quote button or write it yourself.
[qoute="xs1961"] quote purposely misspelled so the software wouldn't read and display it as a quote [/qoute]

Hello folks, I'm checking on the email notice thing. If it keeps up then try this:

1. unsubscribe from the thread and then log out
2. log back in and then re-subscribe to the thread agin

see if that fixes it.

About the folder think - if your browser is set to auto clear its cache or if you did it yourself then you will loose the new post history.
