What is 'bookmarks' and how does it work? I dont suppose it lets you bookmark threads you want to come back to at a later date? If that isnt what it does, does anyone else want that feature added?

It would also be nice to be able to search for keywords in threads that you created - it can take us long-term-PHers eons to trawl back through all the months worth of posts weve started, when looking for something by keyword.

Yes thats what it does, you book mark threads you want to go back to, or keep an eye on.

I have found the What's New / My Stuff function really handy for keeping tab on my threads

You have to add your bookmarked threads

At the top of the thread above the blue bar that says AUTHOR is a small yellow folder with BOOKMARK next to it. Click that and it will add the thread

I thought Id seen something saying bookmark before. I even looked for it to make sure I wasnt imagining things

Someone, delete this thread, quick!

Its going to be handy to be able to go back big threads like old skool dance tracks, when you dont have the time to read it all now

Before the changes:


What's new my stuff had your own posts, in order of most recent replies st thr top. That way you could keep your eye on 'em. Now they get zapped every month. So,now, it's very diificult to see whether somebody's replied to your thread.

It only seems to be me who's moaning though!

Agreed. Snot the end of the world though. Theres the bastard of a back button, to last months threads Best solution imho would be a configurable last XX posts, choose from 20, 40, 75, etc...
