    I find that when I log on and select "New Posts" that if I get called away I loose the remaining new posts. :mad:

    I have found that by logging out there is a "Todays Posts" which stays regardless of how long you take.

    I now log out and stay that way until I need to make a reply to some thing then I log on. A real pain in the A....

    Is there any way we can have the "Todays Posts" option whilst logged on? :confused:

    ps Don't take the logon option when you try to make a post from the logged off state. You logon but loose your reply when you post it. Go out and then log on from the front page. Find the post and reply.

    G'day Dave,

    Same thing happens to me except I hadn't worked out your solution.

    Why when I'm reviewing New Posts do I suddenly find that I've logged out and logged in without me knowing? :mad:

    It seems like if I follow a URL it sometimes happens, but I spent 20 years in systems analysis and I'm not about to take on the job that Neil probably pays for.

    Love to hear any explanations.

    Jamie

    I think that this has been discussed before but try SimonC's answer here.

    I would love to have a "Today's posts" option rather than "New Posts".

    Oh No! I don't think he's simple I think he's very complex...or is that "has a complex" mmm...if you have a complex does that mean a) you own a shopping centre or b) you are complexicated??:confused: ..uh I dunno??? you'll have to ask Al's therapist.
