I am very new to this site and have been loving all of the information provided.  The content and work that has been done is amazing.  However, due to my fumble fingers I accidently clicked on the feature of the S.A.S web site that restricts my views to "unread topics since last visit".  My work around to get content is to just log out and I get the content.  I have spent a good amount of time trying to figure out how to reverse the process but have been unsuccessful.  I apologize  if this is the wrong place to ask the question, but I  would like to get my view of the site back to where it was.  I am also trying to figure out how to make a donation.  I did it once before by my attempts to find the proper procedure seem to be restricted because I have read them before.

Thank You in advance for your help.

Bomberkiller,

Thank you for you reply.  The only problem is that I do not know what a TAT is that is to be opened.  I searched TAT with no luck.  When I clicked the link it just sends me to the home page with the same results.  As I said I am very new to this site and a more detailed description would probably be better.  Thanks for reaching out to me.

SORRY,

it should be: New TAB.

BomberKiller,

Thanks.  I started playing around and I believe I have identified ways to get where I want to go under my account as it stands now.  I also found the donation info again.  So I think I am good.  Thanks again.

Just click "HOME" in the upper left corner.
Depending on whether you have changed the forum theme (default is core, but we support "curve" as well), it looks like either of these:

Mike,

Thanks for reaching out to help.  You are right, however there is one other step that I find necessary to freely go where I want.  I am including this in case someone else gets stuck like I did.  When you click "Home" the SAS Hanger screen comes up.  If you go to the Hanger Screen and click the button, say "New Member Safety Area"  if there are no new posts you get nothing.  However, if you look just below the "Home" button you will see a line (in very small print for us old guys but very readable) that says: Special Aircraft Service> the SAS Hanger> New Member Safety Area> Recent Unread Topics.
If I click on the item just before "Recent Unread Topics" (in this case "New Member Safety Area" I get everything I am looking for.  So this issue is resolved for me.  Thanks again.

Maybe you have accidentally collapsed the Hangar.
Look to the far left of the blue line holding the Board Caption (i.e. "the SAS Hangar"). If there's a plus ("+") sign, click it.
If not, please show a screenshot of what you're seeing because what you describe is absolutely new to me and definitely should not happen.

Mike,

I did not collapse the Hanger.  However, your email did show me how to.  Again, I find that this is no longer a problem for me now that I know what is going on.  I do get the full hanger but when I click on a topic like Announcements if there are no unread (it says unread topics but really means any new posts) topics since last visit the attached screenshot is what I see.   This also happens with Bat Lounge and the rest of the items in the hanger.  So somehow I have activated a filter that just shows me new posts since my last visit to the hanger.  But to get where I want I just click on Announcements which is right before "Recent Unread Topics" in the line above the windowed statement and right below the home button and I have access to all of the posts in that category.  This also works with all of the other topics. So it is no problem only requires a second click to get what I want.  I hope this is a better way to explain it.  I hope this answers your question.  Thank you again for your help.  If you need me to I can give you a screen shot of the hanger and the screen I get after I click the item that appears just before "there are no new topics since last visit", let me know.

Yep that's the "unread topics" view.
However, if you click on the "HOME" button right below your avatar image now, you will get back to the forum's index page with all boards (read and unread) showing.
