Recent posts in the test equipment board under the products category show up for me both in the recent posts expanded list and also the recent posts list on the main page, I don't see anything missing unless I'm looking at something other than you describe, the fourth post down on the list is from the test equipment section as you can see in the capture.

I think we need a dedicated sticky thread for ongoing minor forum issues if we don't already have one, there seems to be quite a number of newly started threads for perhaps easily addressed concerns, I haven't been here long enough to know what is normal.

TheSteve is inserted in the correct place for me. All I can think of is that there's a / in that title. Try searching the page source for  Re: 1159A differential probe mod/update
.  That took much longer than I thought it would.

I don't really know, my end looks all good but you might just want to check your forum profile and check that no boxes are ticked in the Ignore Boards or Topics sections.

Did you sort it out?, I do know when the forum structure changed that I modified my profile settings to accommodate the new layout, can't remember what I altered now but I did make changes to the way it was viewed.

One funny thing I did encounter once was I added a nasty signature to my profile to dissuade zero posters who just go around reading other peoples information and not contributing, anyway I checked the do not show signatures box so it would not be openly visible and thought I was all done and good to go. The following morning I viewed the forum as a guest so not signed in and the signature rant was clearly displayed to all, I realised then that some settings are only activated when you are actually signed in otherwise what you will see is the default forum view such as displayed to guests.

A good rule of thumb that has worked for me is when in doubt just sign out.   :)
