On the previous site, we had a tag below OPs profile picture showing their replies to posts. It would be really useful to have something similar on the new site, as it can be confusing if OP replies to posts.

Thanks for writing this one! I know this came up in a few other topics recently.

Used to be, when OP replied in the discussion, there was “OP” next to the name so readers knew a reply came from the OP. I never thought about it before, but happened to notice it is not here now, so it must have been an important tidbit of information to me when reading through discussions.

Is there something I’m overlooking that might indicate particular posts are from the OP in the threads?

Would be really nice to have again, yes.

Hi @bob2213 , there is not. I did migrate your post into this feature request, though, as it sounds like you’d also like to see this feature return, correct?

Yeah, it would be nice to have. Knowing a particular message is from the OP lends a bit more credence to the message, as opposed to someone else providing information in a message that they THINK is pertinent but really might not be.
Like I mentioned, it’s not something that I really thought about before, but noticed it as a glaring omission here in this new world.

I also would like to see this come back. Makes answering questions and navigation easier when you are deep into the thread (if there are a lot of replies).

Thanks for raising this, we’ll look into whether or not we can bring this back. I agree, it’s definitely a useful feature.

We released a update to show the “Author” of the topic beneath their name on all their responses within said topic.
