What does BUMP mean in a post?

( I yam SO embarrassed - can't believe I'm asking this. LOL! )

Thanks in advance, nice people!

Hope it means the same thing here, it means you type a response to move the post up to the top of the list of subjects in a forum.

Hope I am right

Yes, you explained it right. Any time a response is made on a thread, that thread is "bumped" back up to the top of the forum list. And, please, don't be embarrassed to ask questions like this -- we were all new once. Sometimes I still see something I don't understand.

Thanks so much to both of you! Not just for the answer, but for not making me feel like a knucklehead - LOL!

You guys are great!
