Re: What happenend to the "My Replies"

The way I have been finding my posts in the exact same format as hitting the "my Replies button is to hit the search button at the top,click advanced search and in the user name box type your name in it. Hit search and all your posts will come up. Its a hassle I know but it works...

Re: What happenend to the "My Replies"

I've found a simpler method if your user Control Panel's are the same as mine . . .

Click on the "User CP" Button upper left, brings up your Control Panel. The latest Subscribed Threads are there and there is also a button for "View all Subscribed Threads", click that and it lists them the same as the "My Replies" button did. Two Clicks instead of one and no typing . . . :)

Okay angry mob!!! :eek:

I spoke with iboats and they are looking into having that restored but in the version of software combined with the new options that have been put into place......... it may or may not come back.

Re: What happenend to the "My Replies"

Weird, I've been using this method all day . . .

I've got the same issue as Alpheus there...unless you've specifically subscribed to the thread(which I never do since the "my replies" was so convenient) that won't show anything.

I've always just replied to threads and checks those under my replies.

The angry mob isn't really angry, more of a slightly annoyed and impatient mob.;):D

The thing is . . . . I don't subscribe, never have. Maybe there is something in profile settings that is auto-subscribing me . . . Checking.

BTW - love the "Tag" on this thread :D

Criminey..hope whatever iBoats corporate IT guy that had the idea for this 'upgrade' can reverse this Colonic-Cranial Inversion. No better way to kill a good forum than to keep messing with it. (Although ANYTHING that makes vBulletin's search engine work better should get a nobel prize...)

To funny...

I don't even know about the "My Replies" ?? Don't even know what it is.

I have always use the Subscription option. Super convenient! Let's me know instantly when someone has posted on a thread I am interested in. Really easy and keeps me informed with all the rebuilds I am watching. You guys should try it, eh!

At the same time I am always up for a gathering of angry Iboats mobsters!

Bring back "MY REPLIES" OR BAD STUFF WILL HAPPEN!:mad:
:D

Re: What happenend to the "My Replies"

You can get the same result as my replies by doing an Advance search, type your name in the search by user name and the search will pull all your replies up. :D a little more typing, it pays to have a short name.:)

When I first started here I used that because I didn't see the my replies link.

Good luck;)

Re: What happenend to the "My Replies"

I believe this is the trick to getting the auto thread subscriptions, and then my two click method ^^^^ works. It is in the User Control Panel area under "Edit Options". I have never used email notifications, but I think when you choose "no email notifications" it assumes that you do want subscriptions as one of the other choices is "Do not subscribe".

Re: What happenend to the "My Replies"

Once you do the advanced search with your name, save that resulting link as a favorite on you link bar on your browser.

For example, mine looks like this:
http://forums.iboats.com/search.php?searchid=9413303

Edit: Guess that doesn't work after time. Back to the drawing board. Looks like the search ID goes stale after awhile

I have email notifications set to on and has been that way since the day I joined this forum and I have never received an email from iboats forum.

I have checked and double checked the settings and have subscribed to threads and never an email...
