Links don’t go to latest post
#1
I’m not sure if it’s just me but when I click the link to view a post with new posts I’ve viewed previously, it doesn’t take me to the most recent unread post as is the case with every other forum I’ve used. For example, there’s a 4 page thread where I’ve read all the posts. Then someone else posts something new. I see that the thread title is bold or I see it in New Post list. I click the thread title to load the post and am taken to page 1 post 1 instead of page 4, new post. Is it that way for everyone else as well? It makes it difficult to continue participating in a thread when I have to keep remembering where I left off.

Hey, Eric!

Instead of clicking on the "Thread" on the left, click on the "Last Post" on the right...just to the left of the Username. That is assuming you are on the "View Today's Posts" view. Does that do it?

If you are in the screen pictured below try clicking on the little green arrow that the big red arrow I drew is pointing to in front of the link you want to view. If you are referring a different screen if you can do a screen shot and post it it would help.

Well, lookie there...I've never even noticed that green arrow. Also, you must do most of your screen time on a phone, while I use a computer. Looking at your screenshot, it makes sense that you would gravitate towards the green arrow on the left. While with me using a computer I focused on the last post on the right side.

Good stuff, Greg!

Always glad to help in any way I'm able. Yes almost exclusively on a cell phone. LOTS AND LOTS of zooming in and out to navigate the site as there is no mobile version.

Yep, that's it. So odd to have to click the arrow. I wouldn't have figured that out. Anyway, I'll be clicking the green arrow from now on.  Shy
