Is there a personal Home Page?

I think that went away with the last upgrade. It is not as user friendly as most forums.

I am still trying to figure out where the search bar went.

Wow.  So how do you tell if someone replied to one your posts?

I have it set up to email me.

If you want that feature, you have to go to your NOTIFICATIONS page. Place your mouse on your user name after you login. It will show you the drop down menu (PROFILE PAGE, PENDING POSTS, etc...). Select NOTIFICATIONS. 

In the NOTIFICATIONS section you can configure the system to email you when a thread that you have started or are following (LIKED) has been updated . 

You can see the posts that you have created and that you have commented into under your PROFILE. There is a link under POST  on the PROFILE page to  "Display All Posts".  This will give you a link back to the topic if you made a comment.  You can read the thread later if you do not want to receive emails.

It takes a few days to adjusts to the new site. The colors and fonts that show up in my browser made the site harder to read.

The search bar is now  the magnifying glass next to the "+" near the username.  

Hope that helps.

Calvin
