AHA!!! Thanks to y'all I found the replies. Thanks, kelly
 
If you think there is more to this and post are not showing up for you that will have to be addressed,
May 4 and 5 is when you made the truck transmission posts. I would suggest selecting Classic View because it shows the
post dates of the threads in topic sections. Then go back and look for them. If you dont see them then there is an issue
somewhere. As far as your post being off topic I personally dont see a problem with post that involves ANY kind of a
repair, tractor or equipment use, or tool use or even building or property repair and maintenance. If it is about what you had for dinner that is off topic.
If I had my way there would be very few off topic post outside of Tractor Tales, but it has developed into ..it is what it is..
 


Kelly, it is apparent that you are on classic view. One of the biggest of the many advantages to modern view is that when you first open up you can click on "view your posts" and every thread that you have started or posted to pops up. In addition, more people see your initial post because every additional post to it bumps it up as in every other forum on the 'net.

Doesnt matter which view. At the time I typed this, his post was on page 3 in modern. In fact, theres a post on page
1 in classic thats on page 2 now in modern.

Missed the point entirely.

Times 200. Modern view shows 25 posts per page and classic may only have a few. Guess it depends on how much you like to click on pages. If you need to know who's post is responding to whom, then switch to classic.

In modern view when clicking on reply, it will show what you are responding too otherwise I can guess. Years ago I used classic view to scan topics. When I saw the names of some of the very sharp and knowledgeable people then I'd look.

With modern view, you can also hover the mouse pointer over each topic and it will show the first sentence which helps on the topics with a name that don't match what they are asking. Then I decide if it something I can help with or need to know and click on it or pass it over.
 
No, I didnt. You and others dont like classic, thats the point, right! What I was saying was, in this case, it
wouldnt matter. When I typed that response, Kellys post was on another page, in both classic and modern.

Yep.

On modern as soon as you posted that response the whole thread went right to the top of page one in modern while at the same time it stayed where it was on classic and will continue to fall regardless of how many posts are made in the thread but on modern every time a post is made it will go to the top again.

Then there is that feature in modern that someone else mentioned called "View your posts". Click that and you will be shown your posts in various threads. Very, very easy to find what the OP was looking for.

Now as soon as I hit submit this will be right at the top of page one in modern view while slowly sinking out of sight in classic probably never to be seen by most classic users.

John M, you are WRONG. It has nothing to do with not liking classic. I used classic for years, then I checked out modern and found out the advantages and started using it. I never liked classic any less. I just find that modern does for me things that classic can't.
