Gosh the things you learn thanks ana and to think I have been on here since the beginning makes it all the more embarrassing.hmm

Yep. It works if you use "last hour". Not on Active or Last Day, which behave as described above (or below, depending which way up you have the threads).

Bags Thu 13-Dec-12 10:50:39

Oh, thanks, ana. I didnt know that. Dont use them much. Goes to check....

Bags Thu 13-Dec-12 10:49:53

Oh good. So glad it's not just me.

Isn't it clicking on a thread title that takes you to the thread? And if you have your 'customise' preferences set to have the newest posts at the top, you'll see the last post first. If it's a long thread, the OP is there at the top in blue and then the latest post.

Oh, yes I've just twigged - it's if you're looking in 'last hour' or 'last day' etc., not active.

Normally, if you click on the name of the last poster on a thread, you're take straight to that post. For about a week now you've been taken to the beginning of the thread and have to go to the end and scroll up. Please would you fix this, Techie?

<confused> Do you mean on the Active/topic list? When I click on the name of the last poster, it takes me to their profile, not the thread?

Glad someone does, Jodi. You and I seem to be on the same wavelength this morning. grin

Thanks for fixing the Bookmark problem - mine is working today. smile

I think she means clicking on the name in the list before you enter the selected thread. !!!!!!!! That makes it sound even more confusing confused

I know what you mean anno

Black names don't have a profile, Bags.

Bags Thu 13-Dec-12 09:09:00

Clicking on blue names takes me to profiles. Clicking on black names does nothing. I don't think I've understood the problem yet confused

Bags Thu 13-Dec-12 09:03:15

Or flip the whole thread.

Bags Thu 13-Dec-12 09:02:52

Can't you just fix your preferences to have the posts with newest first? That's what I do. It works for me.
