I understand about the quotes bit now. That makes sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted November 20, 2020 Author Share Posted November 20, 2020 3 minutes ago, Mr Fro said: The problem I'm finding with that is it takes you to the latest post in the thread rather than where you left off as in the previous version. It should be acting the same I have just checked you settings and you have this When opening content...................Take me to comments I haven't read So it should be taking you to where you left off What are you actually clicking? as different links take you to different places you need to click on the actual thread and not the last post info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not going to the first unread, just sometimes it goes to a random page, or when I click go vat to the previous page it goes right back to the beginning. I think I may have figured this out! When going forward or back a page hit the "PREV" or "NEXT" arrowed red but to go to start of the thread hit the 2 arrows right at the end which are arrowed black I suspect you may have been hitting the outer arrows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geofferz Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Don't know if already posted but can 'unread' just display unread threads once as opposed to all of the posts in said thread? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will have a look but you can change these yourself save it as a stream then set it as default 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes - just use the first of the filters and set it to "content items only". You can then save the changes 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can then save the changes Just be warned! at some point I am going to be messing about with all these "Streams" to make them work "better" so it may mess about with your settings! Currently in mobile view the unread button at the bottom is not "unread" and I think to simplify it for newbies I think it should do what the name says and show unread posts! I will then be putting other streams within the menu so its only one extra click But you will still have the option to make a default stream which will override the unread button on the top and bottom bar 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James in Brum Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 I’ve effectively been taking a break for the last few days because the interface is doing my head in. I though I had it right but now when I get the ‘unread recent posts’ up having created my own screen it shows all the posts for all of the threads that have not been read by me in order they are posted (a list of posts in chronological order regardless of which thread they are on). what I really want is a button and then all the threads that have posts on I have not read. Those have one link per thread, I follow that link and it takes me to the first in read post. I’m only dipping in an out because it’s getting on my nerves, not read a post for a few days now. Not a flounce and I think you did the right thing in updating the software to make it future proof but for me it’s rather gotten in the way of using the forum. I only access on a phone these days. May try on a computer. When we getting the app? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problems you are having are all down to settings and thats all @learningtofly hit the nail on the head above with changing the settings to content items only and saving it When I get chance I will be looking at all the settings and it will all change then I will do a guide on how to make it personal to you The more you shy away the longer it will take to get used to it I also recommend hitting the condensed button too to keep it all neat 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JRH Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 I must be doing something wrong. I click on “Home”, this shows all the topics and threads. Any that have new content have “new” against them. I go to these and read the new content. Even on the old forum never bothered customising how the threads were shown. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peatear Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Not sure if it has been mentioned again or anything looked at... Locations under name as before? Or at least on the hover over-popup Is that going to be possible? I'm weird, I like to know that sort of thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
