    Hello and welcome

    There is no list of online members but when a member is online, you will see a blue computer image to the right above the 'reply' button on a message. It shows grey when they are offline.

    If you add the topic where you posted your message to your Hotlist, you will see a notification when replies are added.

    You have to be logged in to add to your hotlist. Click on the relevant topic subject line and click "Add to hotlist" near the top of the page. You will find your hotlist on the right hand side once you are in a forum or thread with quick links to remove threads from your hotlist too. When someone posts in the thread/topic, you will see the number in bold with the word 'new' next to it to indicate new messages (posts) since you last looked.

    Further help is available here.

    Best wishes,

    Bev

    You cannot do this yourself but you can either email internet_editor@tes.co.uk and supply a link of the URL (copy and paste from the address bar at the top of your screen which begins http) and include the post number or click the 'report abuse' link inside the actual post you wish removed and this will provide us with the post number. Please include your reason for removal. If we delete the first post then this automatically takes the whole thread.

    You are probably referring to the one that was in the moderation queue which has just been let through. In any case, the figure won't change until you move about the site so if you stayed on one page, the 0 wouldn't update unless you refreshed the page or went to another one and there can be a slight delay while all the servers update.

    Sorry, we don't have that facility at the moment but it may be included in future upgrades.
