To LOGIN on the RootsWeb side--if you are not auto-logged in -- there should be a LOGIN link up in the upper right corner of the page. <<The last question, is there some way to know which posts have been read without going into the specific post? The only way that I can see that a post has been read is when I actually click on the post and view the entries....then the orange dot appears to indicate that a particular post has not been read. I was hoping that we would have more admin tools that would make things easier, but thus far it is a struggle. Hopefully they will be able to fine tune things as we go along.>> --- I think this may get easier with time. How I'm doing it is viewing the board and checking the last post date for the top threads and only clicking through to any threads with new posts since I last checked. However, SOME boards have a bug and are not displaying this date correctly--so I think that might be what is causing confusion. That bug is being worked on. Joan
