I would like to see a short link somewhere (similar to New Posts), where I can see a list of all the topics I've posted in, but that have new/unread replies (to me).

On phpBB-forums, there's a 'Your posts'-link that shows all topics one posted in. Topics with new/unread replies are shown in [b[Bold[/b]. Simple.

These vBulletin-forums have a similar feature, (Your content under username) but it doensn't work as nicely as on a phpBB-forum.
vBulletin forums don't show if there are new posts in a topic.
Which is cumbersome and somewhat annoying because you would have to revisit all the recent topics I posted in to check for new replies.

All too often I noticed there are new replies in a topic I posted in once, but I only got to see the reply because I happen to stumble upon the topic again much later on.

I know about Watching topics/threads. That's not quite what I want.
I get enough emails and notifications already on a daily basis from everywhere.

I tried to fabricate a search-link in the url-field with my own user_id to come up with what I want but it didn't work.
 
Everything you respond to shows up in "your content" on your profile page. I don't know of a unread list is available. @Joeychgo can help.
 
In the upper right corner there is an ALERTS tab, if you hover your cursor over it, it will tell you if someone has replied to a thread that your are following, likes you post, quoted your post, etc.

Good morning BrianT, yes that is how it works IF someone quotes or likes a post, but they must Quote or like a post for it to show up, but going to your profile page will show everything you responded to so we can look back on pages and see if anyone has responded, a big list to look at for some but it does bring us back to a thread we are wondering about :thumbsup:

Sorry Mike, don't want to argue so early in the morning, but that's not how my ALERTS tab works. If someone posts after I do, I get an alert even if they don't quote me or like my post. It says "XXXXX replied to the thread XYZ. There may be more posts after this."

I don't know how to screen shot and post so I took a pic with my phone. Here is what I see when I click on ALERTS.

Argue :rofl: me !! I don't argue :thumbsup: and you are correct if you start a thread sir :popcorn:
 
ARGUMENT ON!!!! lol :lol:These are threads started by others that I've replied to and then another member has replied after me or added a picture. The only thread that I've started in the picture above is the 408 Build
 
Wow, I did not get an update on this thread at all ,, ok.. I am ready to learn about this more :thumbsup: What say you @toolmanmike ??
 
If you click on your name you can go into your account and change your ALERT PREFERENCES. Pretty easy. I must have done that a long time ago and never realized it?!?! Have a great weekend.
