How do I see what threads I've posted on?

I feel like I must be missing something. I commented on a thread yesterday, but I can't remember what it was titled and I can't figure out how to get back to it. Halp!

@KatieAwesome627 MFP removed that %feature. You can look for the yellow tags that indicate new content in a thread you've viewed (if that works) or search for yourself.

Also clicking on a star beside a discussion will subscribe you to that so you get a notification if a new posts is made in there.

Thanks, that is super helpful. Why would MFP remove a feature that makes the page layout easier?

You must be new here. The easy answer to that question is that it is complicated. MFP "lost" that feature when they moved the Community Message Boards to Vanilla Forums. In short, it seems to be easier to pass a camel through the eye of a needle than to make changes to Vanilla Forums.

There are three methods to find posts, and it is easier to do it on the Web version.

On the Web version...

Method 1: Click the bell icon on the upper right of the page; then click All Notifications; then scroll down and click on either Replies or Discussions. The two paths are...

* COMMUNITY > Message Boards > Profile > Notifications > Replies

* COMMUNITY > Message Boards > Profile > Notifications > Discussions

Method 2: Create and bookmark your own search URL by replacing your username in the below URL

* http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/search?author=username

Example: http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/search?author=CyberTone

Method 3: Click on Search at the center near the top of the page; then click the down arrow to display the Advanced Search options. In the author field, start typing your username and select it from the list of predictive text options; then click Search.

It's annoying!

Oh, and make sure you don't get notifications on all discussion you've replied to. Well, don't do that if you've congratulated someone in a Success Stories thread. Seventeen pages of "way to go!" while well deserved for the OP, make it hard to see any other ongoing discussions.

Thank you, THANK YOU for these totally awesome suggestions to a very annoying problem!
