"Interesting" .... Looking at "Who's online now shows not only the names of users, but also what they are doing at the time.

If you go to the top right of the page, where you see your username and a small dropdown arrow, click on the dropdown and choose My Profile. There you should see a row of tabs ACTIVITIES SUBSCRIBED ABOUT MEDIA. If it's on Activities it's giving me a list of every post I've made recently in the order I made them (currently showing the two I made in the Hidden Women and my reply to Bryn about CCleaner as the last three).

Was going to say see update to post# but there isn't a number when logged in - although there is on the "general public" viewing version, how odd.
Anyway in theory I'm now set up to see actual recent posts

Afraid I can't see anything labelled "Activities". The closest is "Latest Activity" which I do have ticked.

I find it rather frustrating that, all too frequently, if I temporarily leave the Forum tab to look at something else (leaving the Forum tab active) when I return, maybe just a few minutes later, I have been logged out. It even happens if I just don't go to another tab but simply refrain from interacting with the Forum for a few minutes, then try to reply (with the logged-in icon being active). As soon as I try to reply, I get logged out. Is there a way of staying logged in that I have missed?

I get logged out for taking too long to create a reply to a post, which is really tiresome, although at least now I know how to deal with it without losing the post - or the plot. I don't know if I get logged out otherwise for non-activity as I don't tend to leave such things open even if I leave the PC on to come back to later.

Go to your Profile and make sure it's set to Activities. My Recent Posts just lists the threads in the order in which the last post was made - regardless of whether it was made by me or someone else.

Aagh.Is this gaslighting, am I going doolalley(answers not required whether on a postcard or not) I've just gone back and clocked on Profile and its come up with Activities - but it hasn't done that on any previous occasion, hence my puzzlement. Oh well, just make the most of being able to find my posts I suppose.
