Go directly to the last post

A question: is there a possibility to change a setting somewhere that immediately shows you the first unseen post when you open a thread.?

 

[efsk]

I don’t think that is an option, it works automatically like that for me. Opening a thread takes me either to the first unread post, or, if there are no unread posts, to the thread starter.

If I open a wire like for example at the moment "Shave of the day" you can see that there are 5 pages at the moment but I get to see the first page.

So then I see 1 2 3 4 5 > and nowhere an entry goes to the last unseen post.

Do I have to press 5 and then end up at the top of this page after which I have to scroll to get to that post that I haven't read yet.

I find this a rather cumbersome way to get to the first unread post.

Strange, works for me, Maybe your donation was too small?

For me, it functions, when i click on a link to a thread that i have read before, it takes me to the first unread post there is. The one time it failed was when somehow auto-login had not worked, and i was directed to page 1, post 1.

As far as I can remember, it is dependant on whether you are already logged in or not.

Hmm i do not know if i describe this best:
When i go to the Forum list, and select a post thread coloured blue (new posts?) it takes me to the last read post +1, when the line is grey (no new posts?) it takes me to the first post on page one, is this correct?

This is the way I meant it, but because of your remark, I now realize that this is the difference.

For me it would work better if you are always (whether the wire is blue or gray colored) led to the last read / first unread post.

I agree, it was confusing until i realised what was happening. Maybe it can be adjusted?

So it took you all nine posts to discover what I already wrote in the very first answer to the question. Tsk.

But the next question is now topical, so can this be changed?

 

[dirk]

so can this be changed?

no, unfortunately not. This is the only way how the software works.

Thanks for clearing this up!
