    There are a number of ways to see new post both across the site and within forums

    From a mobile phone there is a menu icon in the upper left corner.. affectionately known as the "hamburger." This is the quickest way to see new post and items you are watching without scrolling down.

    Option 1: From the top for Mobile and Small screens

    Step 1:

    Click on the "Hamburger"

    Step 2: Click on the little Down Arrow next to Forums or any other section. If you do forums it will pull "new" information from across the site.

    Click down arrow.JPG

    Step 3:
    You will now see a menu that will take you to new post in your watched threads, watched forums or all new post.

    Step 4:
    If you do this from the "Forums" section it will show you new items across Articles, Showcase (Garage), Forums etc:

    Important Note - it will show "new" content that is based on what you have viewed. If you have viewed everything, it will then give you option for all "recent threads"

    Option 2 on Mobile:

    Step 1:

    Go to the home page or click on the MA Logo in upper right hand corner.

    Step 2:
    Scroll down past the recent articles. At the bottom, you will see Recent threads and Latest Replies. It defaults to Recent Threads. If you want to see latest replies, click on that. If you press see more it will take you to the overall "new post" page described in Option 1.

    Option 3: "Your News Feed"
    This is a little different, this content is specific to Members you follow. I.e. what and where they are posting. More like "Friends Activity" in social media.

    Step 1:
    Click on the Hamburger:

    Step 2 & 3:
    Click on the little "Head & Shoulders" icon, then click on "Your News Feed"

    Now you will see what your "friends".. (Members you Follow) are posting, liking etc.
