Jim Besser Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 This is an interesting browser anomaly. I mostly use Safari. From any of the forum pages: it used to be that clicking on the date of the last reply brought me to....the last entry. Now, it always brings me to the first entry in the thread. So if it's a thread with a lot of messages - think "current makes of concertinas" - I have to scroll down each page and hit the highest page number, and when I get to the last one, scroll down to the last message. I switched to Chrome; same problem But with Firefox, it worked properly; clicking on the last entry from the forum page brought me to the last entry of the target thread. Just FYI, it's no big deal.

Steve Schulteis Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 There's a forum option that's supposed to control this behavior. Maybe the default changed? Check Account Settings -> Content View Behavior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Schulteis Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Maybe I didn't read your post carefully enough. I agree, it seems like clicking the date of last reply should get you the last post, regardless of the setting I mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveRo Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 I tried it on this Android tablet. That date contains a different link address on Firefox and Chrome: Firefox: www.concertina.net/forums/index.php?/topic/27097-wakker-anglo-concertina/&do=getLastComment Chrome: www.concertina.net/forums/index.php?/topic/27097-wakker-anglo-concertina/ That looks like a bug in the forum software, which generates the thread list page.

Paul Schwartz Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Hmmm, strange. I'll report it... hopefully it'll get fixed in a revision (they release monthly revisions). Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Schwartz Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Actually, it's working fine for me on Safari when I'm signed in. When I tried it on Chrome, NOT signed in, it brought me to the first comment. But then I signed in and tried again and it worked as expected, bringing me to the last comment.

DaveRo Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 I would have been signed in to Firefox and not to Chrome. I confirm: Firefox - not signed in - does not go to last post. [shrug] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
