    thanks, Charlie,
    the last one was on the forum, but it may have been trying to link with the Archive.
    I do know that it did happen on the Archive a couple times.

    Sherrel,

    Honestly, I don't know what to tell you. I don't have an iPad so I can't try it. Hopefully someone else with an iPad will comment. I have an Android tablet and don't have any problems with that so it may be something specific to your iPad.

    Thanks, Charlie.
    maybe it is my iPad .. Had a problem that Keith looked at - was not able to resolve that neither.
    Guess that I am going to have to get serious on the Win8 machine.

    I wanted to leave a comment on a pic on the archives but it said I had to log in. I punched in my info but access was denied. Is my userid and password the same on frisco.org and the archive or are they different?

    Sherrel,

    Sorry I cannot be of more help on this one. I use Android devices and just don't have a lot of experience with the iPad. I am guessing that a plugin may need to be updated or something. That link is to a picture on the Frisco Archive and it's nothing more than just an image so I am not sure what could be going wrong for you.

    Are you looking at that with Tapatalk or a web browser? If it is a browser, try another if you have one. I use Firefox on my Android devices for a web browser.

    Thanks for trying, Charlie.
    Browser on the iPad is Safari, I don't think I have a choice of another?

    BTW, I think it is very neat the way the large Frisco coonskin herald in the upper left-hand corner of the screen changes between the many versions every few seconds. Nicely done!

    Sorry if I've missed this. Looks like the links posted in this thread are now dead on the topic.

    How can I generate a list of threads I've posted in and the threads with the most recent activivity at the top in ascending order?

    Derrick,

    I'm not following the question exactly but if you are looking for posts that you've made, go to the right hand top part of the page, mouseover your username and select "Your Content."

    I'm not sure if that answered the question or not.

    Thanks for the quick reply but I've got that figured out. I'm not looking to see a list of all my posts but a list threads that have been updated since my last visit that I've posted in.

    Hope that makes more sense. I've attached some screenshots from the trainz forum for a visual. Notice my search results generate a list of threads I've posted in. Most recent at the top and bold subject type if I haven't read it yet. I'm guessing the Trainz forum is using older similar software like Frisco.org had in the past.

    Unread threads would be in bold type (but since I've read them all that will not show in the example).

    Charlie,

    See how you pulled each of my posts, not the threads. In the past I could generate a list of threads. Then one click to read the latest post in that thread. I'm sure there's a way to do it with the new software just need to figure out how.

    When I see a list of every post I've made it seems a bit cluttered. For example there's three links for " Missouri Baseball". Two for "Ask Questions Here". Notice in the screenshot I've posted from the Trainz forum we produced a list of threads not individual posts.

    Probably uncheck that box "Search this forum only" though.

    Looks like you could be onto something but I can't seem to generate the check boxes under the date as you have.

    Do you have a computer to check?

    My Android phone also shows a simplified version of the search box. It is automatically giving you the mobile style, which is simplified.
