So is there any chance of getting the Last Post button to work again?

I haven't seen any other complaints about it, so it might just be my computer (wouldn't surprise me - I can't get Goblins to load at all), but ever since the new code got implemented the Last Post button simply led to the first post in the thread.

Any chance of getting this fixed? It's minor, but still kinda convenient.

I said the same thing when it updated (and it has persisted this whole time), but everyone else either wasn't experiencing it, or just didn't see my thread, so nothing happened. Pretty certain its not just my computer, because it happens at school, home, friend's house, etc.

It seems that the last post button on the index of the forums works, but the ones on the indexes for the individual forums doesn't. The buttons on the "New Posts" search thingy do not work either.

Is there a difference between "Last Post" and "Last Page?" 'Cause all I see is "Last Page," and it works fine.

Yes.

See that little Nuclear symbol there (bottom right)? If you click that, its supposed to take you to the latest unread post.

Ah, I see. Thank you.

Er... after seeing that, I think your problem may be that you're clicking the wrong nuklear symbol. It's this one, on the left of the title.

The other one looks like it's intended to serve the same purpose, but has a failure somewhere. This one works fine, though.

The first image, from MoM, shows the link for "last post," which is meant to go to the last post in the thread (as summarized with the date and author information next to that link).

The second, from Argent, is for the "First unread post" link, which does as discussed in this thread and takes you to the first post in that thread you haven't read (assuming you haven't clicked "mark forum read").

I can also confirm that the "last post" links are not working as intended.

Erp. I knew when I was posting it I had to be being stupid. I was right.

MasterOfMagic · 01-27-2009, 12:59 PM

Eh, you were right though, I said the wrong thing. "take you to the latest unread post." should have been "take you to the last post."

But! I'm glad to hear I've not been crazy all this time.

Good to hear it's not my computer just being a phantom crazy thing. I reiterate the request for a fix.
