elbongo Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 Hi Neil, Is it possible to have a button which goes directly to the newest post or page of posts for the mobile skin? For example, when clicking thread it directs to unread posts or first page. The only way to get to newest page/post is to either post a reply or come out of mobile skin to do so. Don't think I'm missing something. Although it's possible. ta mate bongos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It certainly does for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It certainly does for me. Indeed Neil, that is the issue. However, if I just want to see the newest posts I have to either tap 'next' 100 times or come out of the mobile skin. Say there is a thread on announcement. As I have not been in that thread for I while I'm reading posts from February, when what I want is to see the latest developments.

There's a major new version of the forums software that will be available soon*, that I'm hoping will address issues such as this one, and because I know there's this major upgrade coming soon, I'm loathe to make changes to this version in case I screw it up.

eFestivals Posted May 11, 2015 Report Share Posted May 11, 2015 I've just looked to see if the new version has been released, and it seems that it has (they didn't tell me, the gits ). So I've just sent them a support request to check it's a release version and not a development version - I don't want to install shoddy code - and if it is then I'll start working towards getting it installed, which might take a while depending what changes there might be between the versions.

davefrompompey Posted April 24, 2016 Report Share Posted April 24, 2016 Hi This is probably a stupid question - was the thing where clicking a topic took you to the first unread post removed? I'm on Android chrome and logged in, with cookies enabled, but selecting a topic always takes me to page 1. Is there a way for me to turn it back on? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers you need to click on the circle or star to the left of the topic title to go to the first unread post. Clicking on the topic title will take you to the first post of that topic.
