I just started a thread about not being able to log on, but it doesn't show up in the recents. So basically no one will see it.

Al,
When you make a post, you won't see it in the "recent" page, unless you log out.
Log out & you can see it.
Then Log in & it will go away again.
Kinda like a Cat & Mouse Game.

It seems to me that the menu item "Recent" has been changed to show only the new posts you have not seen yet. This appears to be a recent change. If you go to the home page, all the recent posts are showing.
 
Post I have started do not show up in new or recent when I am logged in.

It looks like something has changed. "Recent" now seems to show only new posts, so if you posted a new topic, it is not new to you so you do not see it, but others do. You will see it appear in the Recent posts when someone else posts a reply, because that reply will be a new post to you.

I like it better the other way; when you click the Recent menu, it will show the recent active topics regardless if you have seen it or not.
 
I liked the other wa too. Now it appears that once you read it, it disappears from the list until someone else posts. Perhaps I want to go back and re-read something in the thread or copy a recipe or comment from my laptop, which is far easier than my phone, when I get home. Now I can't find it unless someone else comments.
