sooby said:Thanks, Sandy. Yes I have it set to watch threads I start, I probably did that when I first signed on because I really don't use it so I may as well change the setting. What I want to do is select some forums to "watch" and have them at the top on my home page. On the dashboard it now says "watched forums" where I had put the forums list in my first home page incarnation, but what I'm getting is still the 100 forums and forums list doesn't seem to be an option any more. Am I still getting the 100 forums where I have "watched forums" because I don't actually have any watched forums yet?


I don't use the watch option for forums, so my home page has the list of 100 forums showing without alphabetical order. I tried the watch option today for one forum. What it did on the home page was replace the 100 forum list with the one watched forum. It displayed an option to see the other forums, but when I did that they showed up in the groupings - e.g. forums for plants, forums by region etc. That's not how I used NGA, so I un-watched the forum and went back to having the forum list with recent postings dictating the order. If my watched forum had simply floated to the top like the 'sticky' posts in some forums, I'd have like that and left it. As it is, I'll just continue scrolling and selecting forums to peruse.
