Forgive me if I'm the only one struggling with this. On our old sight, I could look at the discussions that I had commented on, and read other posts about that same topic. Often times I found that there were members that referenced my comment, so it was nice to go back and see. How can I see what comments I have made so that I can see if there has been follow up????

    Personally I like the old system better. There are a few changes that work well, but for the overall picture I'll take the old system.

    I'm still learning things about the new system, so don't give up. Following is a screenshot of my profile. Look under my profile picture, and you'll see "Comments". If I click on that, I can see my comments. If you hadn't posted, I wouldn't have found it myself. 😊 If you need more help, ask. We'll work through it together.

    I'm in the minority who finds the new site an improvement over the clunky old one.

    In addition to the tips the others have given, you might also be tagged in threads in which you are participating. I tagged you here, and you should have gotten a notification-- the round circle on the bell icon at the top right of the purple banner at the top of the page. Click on that, and you'll find your individual notifications which act as hyperlinks to the thread in which you were tagged.

    If you want to tag someone, key in the "@"symbol and start entering the member-name. A drop-down menu of options will appear, just click on the one you want and voila! they be notified that you tagged them.
