How to find threads I posted on but didn't start?
I had posted on a thread that someone else had started and I promised to update with progress on my ISA transfer but I can't find the thread now. I can bring up a list of my 'posts' but these are only those threads that I started - and anyway, there doesn't seem to be a way to order them eg latest first. How do I find…

Quoting posts changed
Has the way we can quote posts changed intentionally? Now it gives a preview instead of the whole quoted post, but there's no way to highlight specific parts of a post by emboldening etc. This was useful to respond to specific parts of a post. Can this be brought back?

Clearing Drafts
I've got two draft posts which I'm trying to clear. I've tried to clear them by setting the dates (both in the past month), selecting posts and then choosing 'clear all' but it just seems to clear my selections not the drafts. Where am I going wrong? 🤔

Poll: Draft auto-save: keep it on or turn it off?

(Also being discussed in this thread) Some members have told us the current auto-save behaviour is annoying, and a few think it may be contributing to posting issues in certain situations. We’re investigating those…

Clicking on a thread title should result in #latest i.e. opening on the last read or first new unread post, whether implemented by time of last visit or post last viewed, - but this seems inconsistent with the browser often opening on a post a few posts previous.

Threads CLOSED when moved from Comps Time to Game Over

Links no longer show the URL without hovering
It is not ideal when you apply for lots of competitions each day. It is nice to quickly know where the link will take you. This started occurring a few days ago. Forum software update, I assume.
