I recently joined a music forum and it's cool that if I click on a thread it will take me directly to my last viewed post which saves the time of finding where I was up to. So on here if I left off on page 485 of the pic whore thread, when I opened the main link I'd be directed to exactly where I viewed last, even if it's the middle of a page.

Not sure if this was one of Shaggy's proposed enhancements (not changes lol), but I like this feature.

There is something already like this on here. VB will take you to the latest post that you haven't read when you usually just click the link. There is another option to. If you look at the thread titles, there is an image just to the left of the Title. It looks like this:

By clicking on that, it will take you directly to the newest post in that thread that you have not read yet.

No, I think you read it right and responded accordingly.

Nothing to see here.

I'm always amazed at how many people don't know about these links. They have been on every vBulletin based forum since vBulletin was first developed. It works on every single forum everywhere unless they use some other crappy forum software.

Yep. When I reread the post, I thought he was happy with how it works here too. Guess I was right the first time.

 

[stkjock]

i read it as him asking if the site had such a feature, which it does, as you informed him

 

[Shaggy]

That's what I thought the first time too.

No worries man. Chill out.

 

[Kenaizer]

Yeah. No reason to get all sad about it.

i actually read this as a link to take you to the last post you read. like if i hadnt been on for a while and there were a few new pages of posts, the link would take me to the last place i opened the thread, not the last post.

Correct.
