Is there anyway to mark a thread within the site to save, other than the typical bookmarking of a page. Thx

Not sure about how to mark a thread, but you can Star a post in a thread, and I guess if you selected the first post in the thread that would serve the purpose. Just click on the star over by the acorn, they are logged in alphabetically by topic so it is important to choose your topic title to represent what the thread or post is about.

Thanks, forgot I can designate a thread to watch...

Rj, the "watch" thing is at the top (on the left) and bottom (on the right) of each thread.

Another option is to use the "custom menubar"

Go to your profile and click on "site preferences"
Scroll down to "custom menubar" and click on "manage custom menubar"
enter the link name (whatever you want to name it) and the URL

Then you can find it by clicking on the "links" icon at the top right of the screen (between the system messages "bell" and the profile "person")
