Some of you may have noticed the little "Bell" icon up at the top left of the screen.
If you are logged into the website, that will show you any Reactions from other users to forum posts you have made. It will turn RED if there are new reactions you haven't seen before.
Clicking on it will pop up a window that shows both the new and the last 25 old ones you have (the newest on top).
The emoticons will show in color for the new ones, and grey for the older ones.
You can click on any of the ones listed to be taken directly to that post. It will then mark that item as seen.
This works from this point forward. So, it won't show you any reactions to posts before today, as the prior ones don't have all the needed data in the database to make this work.
I added this so you can know if anyone is reacting to your post. Some folks use this instead of actually posting a response. Sometimes it's good to know your posts are just not screaming into the void.
