As new posts are entered, my posts move down in the list. Okay. However, I'd like to find if others have replied to my posts. How do I search for these posts? Also, is there a way to search for projects that have been shared by a specific scratcher?

Related to this, is there a profile setting that would notify me by email when someone replies to my posts? Most forums have this feature. I made a post earlier and someone did reply to it, but I had to go the the discussion forum and search for it by scrolling. Can this be simplified in any way?

Question #1: Scroll to the bottom of the “Discuss” page and click on “My topics”. Question #2: Click on “Follow Discussion” on a topic to receive a message in your Scratch inbox when there are replies.

The easiest way to see if others have replied to your posts is to click “Follow Discussion” on a discussion after you've posted something. You can also view your posts by scrolling to the bottom of the discussion home and clicking on “show your posts” (above the edit signature link) and then finding all the discussions you've posted on and manually checking them. The easiest way is to follow a discussion after you've posted. I don't follow discussions unless I know for sure that I want to be notified when somebody replies. After following a discussion, if somebody replies you will receive a message. To check your messages, go to the top right corner of the screen and click the mail icon. There is no way to notify you by email when somebody replies unfortunately.

EDIT: Goshdangit! Somebody posted before me and I didn't find out until the page refreshed when I posted the reply

I'm sure it counts anyways.

Yeah, they got the answer they needed, so they're probably fine.

Thanks guys for helping me out. However, no one answered the other question that I had. I'd like to be able to easily find projects posted by a specific scratcher. My grandson is obsessed with scratch and does “share” his projects. I've tried to find his projects but have not been able to. How can I do that without having to scroll through a zillion projects posted by other members?

Sorry about that. To find your grandson's projects, you should go to his profile, which shows all of his shared projects. To go to his profile, type this into your url bar -

scratch.mit.edu/users/Your_Grandsons_Username

Then, you will see all of his shared projects.

Hmmm

Hi there! Please don't necropost. (Post unconstructively on an old topic, usually over 6 weeks since the last post)
Thanks!

Search up his username, and you should find some of his projects. If you find his username, go to his profile by clicking on his username under the project, look at shared projects, and well, those are his shared projects.

Additionally, you can check your posts and replies here.

Lol…out of topic, but this is the best necroposting I've ever seen on scratch
