Yesterday I posted 4x around the same problem - casting a wide net - and I got some AWESOME advice, information and support. Now I want to be able to 'EASILY' access all this info in the future... How can I retrieve 'old' posts/Topics w/out endless 'digging'?

Yes, I'm NOT a big 'online forum-er' ...any tutoring will be appreciated!javascript:emoticon('')

i put my favorite posts in the "notes" section..Up on top grey bar..
I just copy and paste the links and add my own hint of what the post is about.

and if you click on your name in a post and then click on search all posts by author you will see everything you did..you can find old posts that way too.

It's a feature I've used on other sites and would like to get around to adding someday... sadly, though, there are a whole pile of other things that need doing ahead of it.

If there's something especially useful, you might add to the Modern Vespa wiki as a topic.

I would copy the links to the Notes section.
You might consider, though, not starting 4 separate threads in the same place at the same time asking the same basic question.
Glad you solved your problem.

Well, one question led to another, and I didn't know how to change the Topic title to reflect the new directions the questions were taking. Thanks for the advice and encouragement.

I created a Modern Vespa file under Favorites (links) and then created sub folders (i.e. variator belt). When I find an interesting post if just go to Add to Favorites and save the posting in the appropriate folder.

If there is something I commented on or posted...use the recommendation above and go to Search "by Author".
