how can I look at old posts?
I want to survey old posts but can't find them. I used to find this forum so helpful but i cant seem to find anything anymore.

Try using an outside search engine such as Google.

If you use the search button on the top blue menu bar, you will find two search boxes on the drop down menu. My experience is that the lower one, labeled Google Search returns more accurate and pertinent results.
Beyond that, careful thought into what words you want to use in the search box, and patience are the only things I can think of that will help.

I also use the basic Google search bar on your internet browser without entering the Airforums. If I am selective about my wording and always add Airstream it almost always returns the finds to a forum thread. (For example: " best flooring for an Airstream", "how to rebuild a dinette in an Airstream", "best hitch for an Airstream" etc. Except that last example may overload your browser.

Lexxy, log into the forum and click on your own username as it displays next to a post (above your avatar). There is a link to see more posts.

My problem
I was trying really hard to use the app but have completely given up. I appreciate the info on this forum too much to miss out by using it.
Thanks for taking time to help.

Lexy, just click on the search dropdown at the top of this page and at the bottom of the list is "view all your own posts", if you are looking for one of your own or a thread that you commented on but can't remember which it was, but it was useful.

Click on one of the pictures on the portal. When it enlarges you can go backwards and forwards using the next and previous links above the picture, There may be another better way, but that's one way I know. There are some other tools there also including a search box, but I haven't messed with them.

Edit: I found another way.
This link will take you to the photo gallery. You can then choose categories, etc.
Photo Gallery

I see.
The next and previous buttons are not visible when using a Mac, but are there on a PC.
When you click on a picture to enlarge it on Mac you only see that particular poster's pictures.
I only have access to a PC at work. My home is all Apple.
