Did you know . . .

That if you click on this little icon http://guitaristsprais.forumsplace.com/templates/Aeolus/images/icon_newest_reply.gif, that it will take you to the very last post on the assciated thread? I just discovered that today :oops: .

This icon will disappear on thread that you have already read. It is located next to the thread header in the topic list.

yup....love that button! \:D/

Oh now you guys tell me that!

Actually, it takes you to the first post in that thread which you have NOT yet read. There may be other posts after that. Handy little button. I can just click that to pick up the thread where I left off instead of having to scroll through everything I've already seen.

Don't worry Mr Reverbbb, I can't even find it! :crazy

Is it the one under the 'last post' column? That's not brown though, and only takes me to the end. But one under the topic list? Sorry, me blind :dunno

Yep, the one on the left does that...

Ah - but if you click the one on the far right, next to the latest poster's handle then it will jump you to their post... the last one in the thread.

[Kitty]

True, but that one is white. ;)

[kewlpack]

It's orange if it is a new post. Otherwise it is normal.

[Strat-tastic]

:-s

Still can't find it. Maybe my browser needs restringing.

Here's what it looks like on the LEFT side when there are new posts... click the circled icon to jump to the first unread post...

...here's the right side...
The little icon for the last post is normal color (gray in this case - Kitty was right... I must've been thinking of another forum)... you click on the circled icon to jump to that last post.

Hope that makes it clearer.

The one on the left only works occasionally for me. Most of the time it just takes me to the top of the thread.

It does that to me if I don't click right on the icon. If you just click in the thread title box area it just goes to the top of the thread. It can be picky.

Might be some of the limitations or quirks of this particular forum theme/skin.

Thanks kewlpack. I actually found it straight after I asked. I hadn't seen it as there weren't any unread posts :jao:

I'm quite bright occasionally, honest :-)
