Third box from the right-hand end, next to the undo/redo buttons, the one that looks like a 3.5" diskette, gives the option to Save/Delete Draft.

It looks similar to me - if you don't already have a string of messages with a member, then click on their avatar and "Start a Conversation".

Many thanks for that Gram, I was being inordinately dumb.
No, the method is the same (although I have removed the button to start a new Conversation with someone from underneath the avatar). As @Gramaisc says, the usual methods are still there - e.g. click on someone's name or avatar (anywhere, on any screen) and click "Start a Conversation".
The option is still there on a member's profile, under the Information tab, as it was before.

Not wasting at all, that's what I'm here for!
Have a quick read through this thread from the start, as a few new features are mentioned (such as drag & drop file uploading, etc.) which should make The Forum much easier to use.

Hmm. What about other websites? Do they have their own fancy icons, or does it seem like they all do the same (i.e. a screenshot)?
If anyone out there has an iPhone, iPod, and/or iPad and has never tried to add The Forum to their home screen before, I'd really appreciate you testing it out and letting me know the results!
Thanks.

It gives me a screenshot for all sites. I've got the HTC One M8 on Android 4.4.2.
Phew - sounds like that's the default behaviour. If it does it for all sites then I guess it can't be helped!
So it's the iOS ones I'm interested in:

What on earth is 'tagging' on this forum, as per this:
What does it do, how do you do it and how does a person being tagged know they have been tagged?

It was mentioned a few pages ago, @proactive. Although by tagging you just now, I have probably answered all of your questions.

It is essentially an electronic form of burning a person's ears, m'lud.

The only notification I got was that you had quoted my post not that I have been tagged though...
Are you sure? I have just tested it, and I definitely got a little red notification in the Alerts tab, and when I hovered it said "Admin has tagged you in a post in thread...".OK I get it

Is it not working for anyone else? I'll just tag you again, @proactive to test.
Not sure what to suggest, I'm afraid. It definitely works, as I have just tested it again, and everyone I have tagged so far it seems to have worked for.
Perhaps disable all your Alert Preferences, save them, come back to the main page, then go back into your Alert Preferences and tick the ones that you want. Make sure you tick both of the "Tag..." options.
