Hi Chrissy, look forward to meeting you , Matt and everyone else tomorrow. I was hoping you could give me some idea if I'm doing something wrong, when trying to post an avatar. I down loaded a URL of the right size. But it wouldn't load is it me?
Thanks! Todd

if there is a way to click on a thread and have it take you to the newest post as opposed to the start every time.

You mean the newest post since your last visit right?

Or do you both mean sort the thread so it's in reverse? If you just want to sort the thread in reverse, Click here for the Settings option (near Notifications at the top) (http://northwestfishing.info/profile.php?do=editoptions)

Make sure "Forum Settings" is selected just past half way down on the left column. Then on the right side there should be "Thread Display Options" section.


EDIT: If you want to view the first unread post, when you first enter the thread, there is a "view first unread" option on the top near the rate this thread option.

No, when a thread has started and you read all the posts, if you come back later and someone else has posted when you click the thread, you start at the first original post. If there is a setting that will skip all the read portion of the thread and put you to the new portion.

Yup, the edit part of my previous thread. You still have to make an extra click but as soon as you enter the thread there is a "View First Unread" link on the right side in the title bar and it will jump you to where you want to go.

NOTE: This option is not there if you have already read all of the posts.

Yes there is if you look at the right side of all the info for the post were it has the persons name that last posted you will see a little arrow in a blue box click it and you will go straight to the first unread post.

And when you are at the bottum of a page you can hit a button that says top and it will take you back to the top of the page or you can use the quick naz area and go anywhere else in the forum.

that button takes you to the last post on the thread, not the last unread. I'm over it.

Gabes right, if you read the thread the button takes you to the point where you left off, if you read them all the button option won't be there. If you haven't read any of the posts in the thread it it takes you to the last post made...I'll check on the auto setting for this.

Also remember fish skeleton is no unread posts and full bodied fish mean theres unread posts

This is how I have been getting there. Works every time. Notice there is no blue dot if there are no new posts.

Sorry for the sloppy writing. Darn laptop mouse pads.
