Navigating a topic: jumping to the beginning/end, clicking the title, etc

  • Founder TripleA Admin

    I’ve seen questions about clicking topics and how to get to the end of a discussion. There are a few things to know about topics and navigating to posts.

    Pick up Where you Left Off

    First, the forum keeps track of where you left off reading for every topic. If you’ve never read a topic then clicking the topic title will take you to the first post. If you scroll and make it to post number 26, then the next time you click that topic, you’ll start on topic 27 (if there are 41 posts then you’ll still be sent to #27 so that you can read 27 thru 41)

    I don’t know why the gif isn’t animating but if you click the title, scroll a few posts into the topic, go back, click the title again, you’re exactly where you left off.

    You need to be logged in for this to work.

    Jump to End from Topic List

    Next, just like the old forums, you can jump to the last post of any topic by clicking on the date in the last (far right) column of each topic. The links are highlighted in yellow below

    Quick Navigation in a Topic

    While you are reading a topic you can also jump to the end or the beginning very easily. A the the top of a post in the title bar there are some navigation controls.

    Double arrow up: first post (circled in yellow below)
    Double arrow down: last post (circled in orange below)

    The single arrows are basically page-up and page-down.
