Re: 'first new post' button isn't working for me
Fix it already, it's annoying clicking on the link in the forum index and being taken to the previous page.
And also, do something about the avatars, for some reason I cant see half of them, including mine, manker's and Karen's, most of the time.
(When using firefox.)

I'll tell you what else is fecked. Forum search facility.
When you search and you get results as posts, if you click on one of the results and it belongs to a thread where the thread title has been changed, it can't find the posts. :dabs:
Re: 'first new post' button isn't working for me
Please to be fixing the broken 'view first unread' button.
I don't care how many people say 'works fine for me' -- it isn't working properly and, in my opinion, this is making the forum administrators, and the forum as a whole, look completely unprofessional.
It worked fine for years until it was broken by an errant admin about a month ago. I mean, come on, how difficult is it to revert the link specifications to the VB default.

Missing avatars is usually an adblock issue :unsure:

Agreed. :angry:
It seems to work OK when you first log in, but after a while, if there are newer unread posts on threads that you have already looked at during that session, when you click on "view first unread", it still takes you back to the first post that you had previously not read in that thread.
I can't explain it any better than that.

Nope, that has already been tested. And they do work sometimes, without me altering any settings whatsoever.
And I think Guill had the same problem too, someone said, but I can't ask him, now can I?
Seeing as manker and/or JP drove him off, I mean.

Can you give me an example?
Re: 'first new post' button isn't working for me
If you search for "Lawrenson", and view results as posts, then click on the link to show the whole post of the first search result ("Re: Football Torrents"). :mellow:
EDIT: In fact, it doesn't seem to work at all anymore, for any of the search results :(
