Perhaps I am misunderstanding what you are looking for, but if I go here:
http://support.livecloud.com/
and I see "Last: Re: Removing bands by vanaheim Yesterday at 11:51am", I get taken to the last post. Is that not what you are looking for?


Yes but that is a link that takes you directly to that particular last post that is not a last post button.

Thumbs Up


OK - you talked me into it. I won't be posting much until I have the op 'cos I'm a bit busy at the mo. I'll drop in every couple of days but after the op you won't be able to get rid of me!


Look forward to it - and good luck with the Op Thumbs Up

Now that's just plain daft! How can wanting to go directly to see the last post on a thread, as we do on here, be obsolete?

I have Lori, and I see that we don't yet have one and there is a possibility that we will get one but in my post above this Dave seems to think that such a thing is obsolete Eeker How can it possibly be obsolete to want to go direct to the last post in a thread?

Can I ask why it is not possible to reproduce this format for the forums on livecloud.
I'm not very techy minded so there may be a simple explanation but this format is so much better than what I've seen over there so far
Thanks


I'm not all that techy either, but it's different software, with some of the same features. This software is strictly forums. The other makes the forums a part of a social network.

The other software is new, and will be evolving. I can understand why you might not be comfortable over there, but I hope you'll give it a chance. Smiler

thanks for replying, I am regged over there and will use it to keep in touch with the fms that I don't have on FB but I do prefer a simple forum layout like this to chat to people.
I do use other fora so I am used to different layouts but this one here is easy and user friendly so I would have hoped that it could have been taken over to LC as it was.
If not then so be it

This other one "thebighub" is a format i am not used to either, so its all a learning curve once again, so lets give Live Cloud a go and help each other to make it work


Oh...Flossie's place? Is it still shades of black?

Squiggle, I've just tried Lori's link and there is a last post button that works. I didn't know it was there so I've learnt something myself (thanks Lori!).

The part that is obsolete is the way we use the posters name to get to the last post on here. (Dave was saying a name should always take you to the person not the post).

SO now instead of clicking on the last posters name we have to click on the link next to it (just after the "Re").

Hope this helps.

You've lost me, I've just been and checked thread after thread and I can't see any Re at all let alone a link next to it Confused One point, when we came on here, we didn't need lessons Wink

Have you clicked on Lori's link? The Re is in the support forum (how this one is going to be) but NOT in the group forums.

Yes I have now clicked Lori's link again. I must be thick because I have looked and looked and the only clicky bits are the thread title, and the poster which takes you to the poster's own page.

Try one more time Squiggle..... look at the top thread "Suspected bugs"

Under the title you will see the words "removing bands"...and then "vanaheim".... clicking on Vanaheim (the last posters name) would take you to her page. But put click on "removing bands" and it will take you to the last post.

I have got it now. Are you saying then that we will have that when the forum goes over? Especially in view of what Dave said earlier in the thread?

Yes Thumbs Up

Dave was only talking about not using people's NAMES as links that's all. He didn't mean the last post link should be scrapped altogether.

Nah I have you under your rl name - at least I did earlier Confused
FM
Oh, my. This'll teach me to go to lunch! I can't do the quotes anymore...my eyes are going buggy!! Crazy

squiggles: what ducky said about what Dave said. Wink

But also, EA has a good point: while the last post link works on this level: http://support.livecloud.com/ (the forums front page, if you will)

It does NOT work on this level:
http://support.livecloud.com/d...m/109928988063300413 (a specific forum in the forums).

That's what I've put in a suggestion for.

How are we, now? Are we all on the same page?
