Greetings,,,

You can mark a post as UNREAD, if that will help you.  Then look at all UNREAD posts and it will show up.

Don't get confused by the mark as read.  That only means mark as read what is already there.  If one minute after you mark as read someone posts another reply in the same thread then you have something else to read and the thread will show up in unread posts again.  Once I got started here almost a year ago, i went thru and read almost every post that was here and then clicked on mark as read for each thread so I would know going forward what was new.  Now I try to keep up with everything that comes in on a daily basis.  Also if you do not logout then things get confused and the show unread since last visit may not be reliable so I recommend that you logout at the end of each visit.  Since I started doing that I do not have problems keeping track of what is new versus already read.
