I have not been able to find an effecient way to view latest posts on our forums. Most forum software has a latest posts link that will display chronologically the latest posts and provide links to take you directly to that post. I have found a couple of tools on this ProBoards forum that sort of do that but are not working the way I am used to. The Participated link in the top right works well, but only shows threads that I have participated in. There is a link at the bottom right for posts and threads and it does show the latest posts but seems to take me to the firat post in a thread no matter what I select.
Example:
Click Threads
Shows thread with new post but no matter what I click here even page 2 if available
takes me to the first post in that thread. This is not effecient when there are many posts in that thread.
I have looked in the settings in my profile for an option that may change this behaviour but have not found anything. Anyone know of a solution? |

So I take it no one else has this issue?
How do you view new posts?

I look for the red lines on the right hand side on either side of the a section's description. I have yet to see see how to access "new" posts in threads I have not taken part in though.
Guess I will have to start "marking" them.

I see the red lines, but when I click them it takes me to the first post in the thread. Does it take you to the new post?

I don't click the red lines. I just use them to figure out what is new. I just click on that section to see what post is new.

As I said the last time it was brought up I have a support thread in at proboards to interrogate this issue. It is supposed to always be bringing you to the first "unread" post when you click on a thread title just as it does at GTAF.
I'm working on it.

I didn't know you said it before. Thanks. I will quit looking through settings as I thought I had something set wrong.

The "participated" button will take you to last read post. Not all that useful if you haven't actually posted in a thread you're following, but that's something.
