It seems a long way to the New Post tab when at the end of a thread. Can we get a way to go to top of tread tab at the end of the thread?
 
Should be doable, although for the actually technicality I defer to @El_Goretto

BTW, did you see what I did there? By using the @ + username, El_G will receive an alert that his name has been mentioned in this thread....

Super cool.

Edit: Also added the above requests to the to do list.

By the way, on the right-hand side of the page, it has tabs for "Latest Posts" and "Latest Threads".
 
I'll see how to add this. Shouldn't be hard.

In the meantime, if you hit the "Top" link at the bottom of the page, it will take you back to the top:

Oh, OK. That works. Just really small to find it to begin with, especially on mobil. Must be really tiny on a phone. Thanks.

Not only is it tiny...on mobile version it is gone altogether...

We will definitely have to look at a better solution for this.
 
@fastpitch17

I've added a floating button in the bottom left corner to go all the way top or all the way down.

The button appears when you start scrolling down the page.

What do you think?
 
That's great E_G but on my screen it appears in the bottom right corner...unless I stand on my head.:loco:

Same here. I have it on the bottom right corner.

Very useful any way.
 
Thanks EG, works great!

Yes, it's on the right hand side, as intended. I think EG made a typo...:becky:
 
Yes, I made a typo haha. It's supposed to be on the right side, so it's all good!
 
Thanks E_G...I was getting a headache with all that blood rushing to the vacancy caused by my underutilised brain...:ohwell:
 
This also highlights the different ways in which we use the forum. In this case, I never use the back to top button because after refreshing the new posts page, I open each thread in a new tab. So when I'm done reading, I close the tab and read the next until I'm back at the new post tab. I never need to scroll back to the top.

But that's fine, each way is valid and it's feedback like this that lets us make a better experience for everyone.
