    Disappearing posts

    I've noticed that the few posts that I've entered on the Power Tool Forum have come and gone and come again and gone again. I'm not quite sure what's happening here. Is there something I'm not doing?

    Towards the top of the page, there is a button labeled, "user cp." This stands for "user control panel." After you click on that, there is a text link for "Edit Options." On that page you can set how many days worth of posts you can see, and how many of those posts are on a page. However, once a thread gets a new post in a forum, it gets bumped back to the top of the list. (That may be user-adjustable, too, I forget.)

    Also, on a forum page, there are page numbers in the lower right corner, so if you can't see a particular post, you might try going to page 2 or 3 or so on.

    Hope this helps!
