    I am not sure if everyone checks their Private Messages on this forum, but under the hamburger menu on the left, you can select “private messages” to view and respond.

    Does everyone check these?

    My screen must look different than yours.  I don't have any menu on the left, but I do have a button for the "Inbox" in the menu that shows above my user name which displays the inbox of the Private Messages feature for me.  And it will indicate whenever there is a message there that I have not seen.  I only need to go there whenever there is a new message.

    The menu on the left shows up when you are viewing the forum on a phone. You are correct that on a desktop there is an "inbox" button.

    I see a number by the "inbox" icon on the menu bar at the top if I have a PM.
