Greetings, SAS! When we create/open a new Category, weāll announce it here in this thread, so be sure to set this to ātrackingā so you arenāt the last to know.

The Reviews & Recommendations category is a private space to offer reviews and seek recommendations for third-party apps, services, software, and tools for your online retail business.
This category is not visible to the public or new/limited users.
- Any SAS member can create a topic in this category.
- Please search by the name of the app/service before posting. If a topic already exists, please post your review/recommendation/question as a reply in that topic, instead of starting a new topic.
- If your new topic is about a specific app/service, then your topic title should be only the name of that service, and your OP (original post) should include a (non-affiliate) link to its official website.
UPDATE: Moved to 
SAS Confidential (members only) > Reviews & Recommendations

Heck, lets go with it, I wouldnāt mind turning the clock back 20 years on occasion!!! A time machine category (or at least a thread for it) might be a good Idea!!!

SAS IS PUBLICLY VIEWABLE, except for the Amazon Handmade Booksellers and SAS Confidential (members only) categories, which are PRIVATE categories. Topics and replies are not viewable by the public or anonymous users.
- Any SAS member (who is not brand new) can see SAS Confidential (members only).
- SAS members must be manually added to the @Handmade group, after vetting, to see the Amazon Handmade category.
- SAS members must be manually added to the @Booksellers group, after vetting, to see the Booksellers category.
There are some other subcategories that are also PRIVATE, as indicated by the lock icon, as below:
SAS members may delete their own posts in all categories at any time by selecting the 
trash can icon at the bottom of a post, or by flagging a post for mods to delete. NOTE: SAS staff can always see all versions of edited or deleted posts.

We looked and we looked but we failed to see how this is done ā¦
Can you please explain how one might achieve this ātrackingā of the thread?
Consider it as helping an old and challenged relic of the past.

Very happy to! Scroll down to the bottom of any topic to a drop down menu beneath the āTopic Controlsā that probably currently says āNormalā (See yellow arrow; mine is automatically set to āWatchingā because Iām the OP) and change it to āTrackingā (See all the red arrows).
You can also see a āMuteā option (See green arrow), in case there are topics that you never want to see again.
Clear as mud?

@Gandalf can you see it now? It was previously āeveryone,ā but now Iāve added all user categories individually, too. 
And can others please let me know whether they can/not see Selling on other Platforms > MakerPlace by Michaels ???

We can see it now ā¦
{{{ now that kind of reminds us of āCan you hear me now?ā }}}
Yes, I can - but I didnāt face the same problem as did our friend @Gandalf, as I could see it from the get-goā¦
It was set so that literally anyone could, so Iām thinking @Gandalf experienced a glitch.
Iām hoping they donāt mind that I announce that their SAS account is and was under zero restrictions or mutes that might possibly have contributed, if extant.
