HOW DO I use this forum?

[templescroll]

I am sorry to be a pain...but I can't figure out how to use this forum: find my posts, retrieve replies, locate replies...can anyone help me.

To find your posts go to Profile (To the right of home and search)
then you can go to show last posts of this person or click show posts in the left hand navigation.

You can also click on your name in your post to get to your profile.

Then to locate that post / thread you can click the breadcrumb trail (For example click "Re: HOW DO I use this forum?"  in the breadcrumb trail for "Discussion Boards / Support / Re: HOW DO I use this forum?" )  and it will take you directly to your post in that thread.

You can use the search bar and button to find posts and replies.


I hope that answered your question.

Sapper, Okay...I went to the PROFILE...clicked on SHOW POSTS...but only thing that comes up is MY POSTS...how do I find the REPLIES to my POSTS? I type TEMPLESCROLL in SEARCH and nothing comes up.

• I Just want to SEE  replies to MY POSTS because I am trying to figure out how to POST for $3 per month...can you help?
• ....once I click 'post' I honestly don't know what happens next    I am just surfing like an indiot through the FORUM....trying to figure this stuff out. It would be nice to easily see REPLIES to my questions.

Well when you create a post you can go into the Additional Options, (just under the text box you use to type your message) and check the box that says "Notify me of replies."


And to get the $3 per month, you must have at least 30 posts within that month, once you have the 30 for that month go to this link and submit the required information --> http://www.fusioncash.net/forumbonus.php ... You select the month for which you have the 30 or more posts for and enter in 3 message IDs from the 30 for that month then click submit.

More terms and conditions on the forum bonus are here --> http://www.fusioncash.net/forum.php?topic=3464.0

okay
Sapper I am getting the $3 post thing. However, still confused about the forum search/post/messages and REPLIES THING. Here is my confusion: First I am newbie. If make a post I click on that button that says "POST". This cool box comes up and icons and a typing field for my message. THAT IS THE EXTENT OF MY UNDERSTANDING...seriously...I don't know where the message goes and how to get it back or look at replies once I click the POST button on my message...it just goes to the FORUM? But what category & where? who reads it? how do I find it again?  And where are the replies?  I am afraid to LOG OFF FC because I wont be able to find the LINKs to these messages I am sending you! How do I READ replies I guess is my main concern. If I post a question how do I find it days later and visit the replies? Sorry for my stupidity. ***thanks for telling me about the PROFILE but only MY PERSONAL posts are there and no replies/access to the replies.

well, you're going to have to remember what board it was on, say "off-topic" you would then go back to the off topic board and click the topic you posted in.

How do I READ replies I guess is my main concern.

Well I can't help you there.... maybe books on tape or something?  ..... lol ...  Well anyways like I said go to your profile and click show last posts and you should be at this page now --> http://www.fusioncash.net/forum.php?action=profile;u=1722046;sa=showPosts      Now I don't feel like taking the time to upload and post a picture but click "Re: HOW DO I use this forum?" and it takes you to your post in that thread and all the the posts/replies in that thread.

Another thing you can do is put the link in your favorites.

Also when you go to make a post under the text box where you type there is a plus sign with text that says additional opitions..... click that and a drop down menu appears here you can click notify me of replies and return to this topic.... where it will return you back to the thread with your new post and all of the posts/replies in that thread.

Instead of continuing to re ask the same questions over and over again reread my replies and do a bit of exploring and you will see exactly what I am talking about.

I may have more annoying questions...later...sorry.
