But as I know next to b…. all regarding websites & forums internal workings, I am as much use as a hair brush for a bald man.

Are the posts you get under 'My Topics' your posts Pete, but in the wrong order ?

I'll look into it but it's not going to be am easy fix I'm afraid. I ditched the caching to stop it but that had the knock on effect of slowly killing the forum speed.
I'll see what I can do.

While Jay is trying to fix the 'My Topics' button you could use this form that

Start entering your user id in the Author/Submitter field and it will provide a drop down list where you can select your id.
Then select 'search content'.
Search content - Your Model Railway
It may be worth bookmarking the page once you open it in your browser (which is what I've done) so you can always find this form to search for your topics.

Thought the 'my topics' problem had been fixed back in April.

No Ed, it's not there at all. Sorry for the late reply.

Looks like reenabling the caching has brought back the old phantom results issue.

I know I'm not the brightest with things, computers but I can't see any way of book marking. Could it be missing?
Cheers Pete.

Depends on your browser Pete, but it's normally a star you click on at the end of the address bar.

Sorry, I've only just looked at the computer for the first time today. I've been run ragged by my grand daughter (cyclone).
Anyway, your post made the penny drop. I thought there must be a bookmark facility on the site, but I'm still kicking myself since I realised what was meant by bookmarking… doh.
It's done now. thanks.
Cheers Pete.
