    Participated Quick Link

    I have Tapatalk on my phone and one of features that I really like is that it has three tabs which represent searches; Unread, All and Participated. The Participated gives me all the threads that I have posted on. I think having a quick link called Participated that would bring up all threads that I have posted to, the latest first, would be great. Is that possible?

    I just want to correct what the "Participated" search is. It is a search of new posts from only those threads that I have participated (posted) in.

    As a recent tapatalk convertee... I'm sold in a big way.

    Bill, what you describe is pretty much how the Participated tab works right out of the box. No need for switches to be flipped on the forum end at all. It is a settings thing in Tapatalk itself. My itouch is upstairs, so I'm describing from memory, but if I recall correctly that's how it works.

    Hi,

    To see all of the posts you have made. The most recent first. All you have to do is click your name by your avitar. A box comes up showing: View profile, Personal Messages, View Forum Posts, etc. All you have to do is click on "View Forum Posts" and they magically appear.

    OR

    You can go to the search box (it is on the right end of the line that has tabs for Forum, New Posts, Calendar, etc.). Type in your name as it appears next to your avitar. You will get the list of all threads and posts that you have participated in. They will appear with most recent first.

    Enjoy,

    JimB

    Darren, I suggest we see if any others see any value in this before you do anything. Besides I realize you have a life outside this forum.

    Jim, I am familiar with everything you pointed out, but this is a different thing. It is a search that brings up all new unread posts only from threads I have participated or posted in. The benefit in this search is it bring up only those new posts that I am expecting some response on or have a demonstrated interest in because I posted in it. It would not necessary bring up all my posts which would just add a lot of clutter.

    I'm pretty certain Bill is talking about getting that particular Tapatalk functionality in the browser-based version. Good thing we have Darren (and Brent) here, because I'd have no idea how to set this up.

    "Quick Links", then "Subscribed Threads" brings up a list of threads in which you have posted in the order of the most recent posting date/time.
