How do I accomplish this?

Not sure what you mean "watch your first forum". WHAT is it you're trying to accomplish? We'll try to help.

Gerry at the right top of home page it says watch your first forum. To complete profile

Gerry at the right top of home page it says watch your first forum.

@cwil58 I don’t see this, but I suspect that it is a way of instructing a newer member to “follow” a thread (your first thread) so that you can be alerted each time someone posts. Perhaps it’s a way to help familiarize a new member with one of the more oft used features of AGN. Just a hunch, but I’m unsure of what “watch your first forum” means.

@cwil58 That golden eye turns blue when you follow a forum. My hunch may be correct. Try and follow a thread and see what happens. You should see a blue eye next to the forum you follow in the list of forums and sub-forums.

I have done that

@cwil58 If you’ve done that then I can’t say why the prompt is still on your screen. That was my best guess.

I have been a memeber for a long time and followed many threads and mine says the same thing.

What happens when you guys click “dismiss?” Does the prompt go away?

@cwil58 ,
I got that message also after the site software changed. You have to select forum list from the drop down menu to show a list of all the forums. Then you click on one to open the homepage of that forum and then click the follow button in the upper right hand corner which lets you follow/watch an entire forum.

You can then unfollow the form to clear that message if you don't want notifications for anything new from the entire forum category.
