Thread- Post Reply question:

[xmdandsubmit1]

Hopefully you can answer this. I am a new member (1 year paid on 9/30/25). By now I understand New Threads vs. Post Reply (Replies). About 10 times or so, throughout my short tenure here, I have used Post Reply to add a pic relative to the original/New Thread’s topic. However, when I later try to find my Repy its in that original/New Thread it’s NOT THERE. Instead it’s in something like a sub thread (what I’m referring to it, not an OCC definition). I can find my Reply with the pic(s) I added via my Statistcs and viewing all my posts. Not only do I see my Reply but usually other Members’ replies are seen with mine. But, and again, those are NOT connected directly on or to the New Thread. So unless this is some error on my part (if so please enlighten me) what must I do to have my Post Reply appear on the New Thread? In that regard, does the creator of a NewThread somehow regulate who or what Reply is visible on his/her New Thread OR is there something pre-programmed to regulate that? Thanks very much for your time and attention to this question! X.
