Go to first unread post

iamgeo · 04-01-12, 05:22 PM

Every time I go to a topic that has a new posting I am taken to the the first posting in the topic. I then have to scroll down to get to the new unread post or even worse I have to click on the various pages in the topic in order to find the newest unread post.
I have been fooling around with the options and I can not find an option that gets me to the newest unread post in the topic in chronological order from top, the oldest, to bottom, the newest.

At the top of the coloum click the 'Last Post' heading to change the order.

When you click on the topic, to the left of the topic title is a little square with an arrow(I think) in it. When you bring up the thread for that it will bring you to the newest unread thread in the topic. Works for me every time and all vBulletin forums work this way.

Either that or if you look in the last post section to the right where it shows the time, date, and username of the person who posted there is a little arrow you can click there too, it brings you to the newest thread.

<- This takes you to the first new post since you last logged on.

Good append, Piwoslaw illustrated what I was describing well.

Ohhhhhhh. I never even noticed those. Thank you.
Other forums I go to just automatically take me to the first unread post. Well, after I set it up that way in the options menu.
