Remembering what you've read

[Bozothenutter]

Is there a setting I've missed somewhere?

I'd like the browser/forum to remember what the last post was in a thread.

Now it starts at first post every time.

I find it works 3/4 of the time. No idea where the setting is though.

Like most of the features on this dilapidated site they come and go on a whim.

If you click on the icon next to the Thread title it should take you to the first unread post, this icon is dot for a thread you're yet to participate in or if you're an active participant it changes to a star, see below:

To set this as your default;

 

Go to Account settings on the pull down menu underneath your own name at the top of any page

Select Content view behaviour

Select Take me to comments I haven't read.

Hmm, interesting.  Just for grins I changed that, and it does indeed work as the default (when you click on the thread title), but clicking on the dot or star will do the same thing regardless.  There are times I WANT to start at the beginning, but I suppose I can find my way there anyway...

If it’s so bad why are you still here?
