Hello Sue ryder team & thank you. Im struggling with this website,because i was trying to reply to someone who lost her parents also when she was very young ( ireland possibly), but finding it impossible to locate individual posts, cant get back to post i was following despite finding ’ loss of sibling’ part.
Thanks, Judy

Hi Judy - the way ive found it easiest to keep track of conversations i want to follow is find the conversation, then at the bottom of the conversation you can click on “topic controls” and select “bookmark”. Then at any point you can access all your bookmarks by clicking on your profile icon top right of screen then select the bookmark icon :blush: hope this helps!

Hi, thanks foryour advice - im still struggling with this site & wil have2back out. Im extremely computer literate, but the strange layout & lack of continuity are making it difficult for me to navigatr- i cant see if ive actually sent a message either,. And
Theres no " send" button…

Ah thats a shame if you find the actual discussions helpful! If you change your mind at all, when replying to a public conversation, your “send” button is the blue “reply” button at the bottom of your message. For private messages, if youve clicked on someones name to send them a private message, then the blue “reply” button just changes to a blue “private message” button. And to see all your private conversations and check what you have sent, click your profile icon (top right of screen) and then the envelope sign - all your private mails are listed there. :blush:

@Seaneen i know youve been doing some work to improve usability of this site - it looks like Jude is not finding things easy to navigate so might be an ideal candidate to tell you what could be improved?

On personal profile give further options e.g. to follow or continue a conversation, (2) a list of personal favourites and (3) save current conversations.

Generally throughout the site, give the option to (1) ’ save message’
Also, (2) ’ save sender’
And (3) ‘message sent’

Clearer instructions - not everyone can follow your symbols
