Grateful Dead Music Forum

Any chance that you can set it up so when you click on a post of multiple pages it goes to the latest page of postings instead of the very first? A minor annoyance but still annoying. Thanks

I will look into that

Are you talking about from the main page?

He means like for example the DSO post that has alot of posts it should go to the 5th page of that topic not the first page. But I think its nicer to start from the beginning.

You can do this, but you need to be viewing the posts from within the forum, rather than the "homepage" if that makes sense. I use this link to view most recent posts:

http://community.rukind.org/search.php? ... d=newposts

If you look there, you'll see posts that look like this:



See where the red arrow is pointing? If you click that little icon thingie, it will take you to the first unread post in that thread. Is that what you wanted? Does that make sense?

Ya, I usually go to the home page listed posts first so It would be nice if those did it too but it's really not that big of a deal...just me being my lazy self. Thanks for checking on that.

I would post to that DSO thread about how preposterous and timewasting it is to accuse a tribute band of unoriginality on a site that is a discussion site for tribute musicians, but I'd rather not contribute towards that thread staying on the front page.

But re: this topic, I would much rather go to the most recent page of posts first, than always have to go back to the beginning. Other EZ boards I use mostly seem to have that option.

So, on the front page of rukind, where I list out the last 20 topics, you will see that the bullets (on the left) are replaced with the arrow and a page thingy that jck_strw described (sans the yellow page). If you click on that, you will go to the most recent post (regardless of pages), if you click on the title, you will see the thread from the beginning (first page).

How does that work for everyone?

Awesome, thanks G

cool... it had bugged me a tad too, never so much that i would ask about it, but i had noticed... i like it this way, you guys rule

Pretty, pretty, pret-ty....pretty good! Mucho Garcias to our esteemed proctor. And thanks Bo, for asking.

Thanks a bunch, now I can save that extra click energy for something really important, like surfin' for internet porn...lol. Seriously though, thanks a bunch.
