I've been visiting Neurotalk for some months now - thank you for this excellent site and to all who've posted very useful info and to all those who've kindly replied to my own postings.
One question: When I log on I usually check my User CP first for any current postings to threads I'm subscribed to then I go to 'New Posts' to see if there's any new posts/threads that might be of interest. However I've noticed that not all postings from my subscribed threads seem to make it on to the 'New Posts' list. I'm wondering what other interesting posts I might be missing. Is there some obvious reason for this that I've misunderstood - such as some forums are not linked to 'New Posts'. I did read thru the FAQ's but couldn't find anything about it. Thanks in advance for any help with this.

If you have viewed your posts in subscribed first, they will drop off the "new posts" list.

Once you view a post it drops off. If you however go back, using the back arrow to "new posts" you may see the post you just viewed and unbolded.

In new posts, there will be the newest, then a separation, showing all the posts you have not viewed yet, below them since your last log out.

I have found that you cannot see your last posts made, in new posts. The exception to that is if you replied to a post, but there was someone before you that you did not view yet, your post with your name may appear in new posts. But that doesn't happen too often.

If your cache is too full, the logging of new posts may not be accurate. So you should clear your cache fairly often for accuracy there. Sometimes people see old cached pages instead of new ones.

I use "new posts" for everything,

Being computer illiterate I thought only to work down the General Forum Front Page, visiting the Forums which relate to my many problems. Thank you for explaining simply another way of making sure I don't miss relevant Posts.
With my eyes I cannot read pages of instructions AND participate.
