The last 2 or 3 threads I have started I have checked the box 'put this thread in your library' and it has not done so... the very first thread Idid this for worked fine (torment) but I have not been able to get it to work since...any ideas?

Y' should probably repost this in a discussion forum -- y' might get some answers then.

Good luck!

It might be because the library is updated when Ron can get around to it but that don't make sense seeing how you were able to add one when you are a newer member than his last update.

I've noticed something, if I post a new topic and hit 'add to library' it doesn't do it..but if I then reply to that topic (say after someone has left a reply) and hit add to library again it will work that time.

I believe you do have to be making a comment upon a thread in order to include it in your library..

Well that is very confusing..why is the 'add thread to library' box there when you create a thread? I was hoping this would be an easy way for me to keep track of all my posts (instead of searching through piles of pages looking for my last post to see the reply on it)
I've also used the 'Add poet to library' option and it didnt' work at first, and then all of a sudden it put up about 1/2 of my threads..but the last 5 or 6 threads have not shown up on the list in my library either.

Make a comment upon one of your own posts (this one for instance) - As you're typing in your comment, check "Add Poet To Library" beneath the dialog box.  When you submit your comment, you will have automatically added yourself to your personal library.  Then you can go into the library and choose to display all or some of your posts.  

It works..

I've done that, and I've set it to show the last 20 active threads, but it is only showing about 5 or 6 and there are another 5 or 6 I have created since the newest one on that list. I've tried hitting update poet but that doesn't seem to be doing an ything.

I'm not sure why the program isn't adding an individual thread when you originally post, but I'll check into it. Probably a bug.

As to adding a poet and seeing their latest posts, the answer is the very first thing displayed in your Library. Right now, it says:

Member Index last updated: 5/23/2002 9:34. Posts initiated after that time may not be listed

Which, I guess, is a gentle reminder to me to get my butt in gear. I usually try to update the Member Index at least weekly, and I'm obviously a tad late. Again. Until it is updated, any post made by a Poet after that date and time will NOT be included in your Library.
