difficulty using this forum

[neuronetv]

sorry to ask a silly question but I can't work out whether I'm logged in to this forum or not, and I don't know whether I'm asking a question as a guest or as a logged in user. how does one tell? (I don't have this problem in other forums)

Well you are logged in for this post because I can see your name and not guest. I feel your pain with the log-in, someone will come along and tell us the one thing we're missing, that's probably right in front of our faces. Anyway, I'm lucky cause I'm able to stay logged in whenever I open the page, but you'll know if you're logged in if you try to reply to a thread. The site will prompt you if you're not. Another issue I have is it used to be easy to get to your profile but these days it always takes me some sideways deal to find mine. Again someone will come along and tell me what I'm missing on that too.

If you click the menu icon in the top left corner (it's green with 3 lines in it), it will say "hi neuronetv" on top of the right column if you're logged in, or give you a link to log in if you're not.

I also like having the "Your Menu" expanded, if I'm logged out this is either not expanded or it has a different look because it won't have some links that would only be valid if you're logged in.

Excellent. I figured I had to be looking around something. I had forgot about showing your name in the menu box, but I kept clicking on it trying to get to my profile. SMH. Thanks

I kept clicking on it trying to get to my profile. SMH.

The meatball at the right end of the line that starts "YOUR MENU" (then scroll down a little - it's at the left). Or, if Your Menu is expanded, the bottom of the right column, "My Profile".
