Can't see the "Last reply" bit under the main title

It's very faint .... bit like me at the moment with all the changes

 

And where the 'last read' thingy ... that was really useful

 

Yours, disgruntled .... Jesmond (rather posh) 

I'm really sorry, but it appears that the Last Read thingy has fled the scene. 

Yayyyyy that’s better Lori ....thank you

Noted. 

@Lori @Saint A quick tip ....you know the 5 FM pictures next to each thread , if you click on one of them it takes you to that persons post ...so, if you click on the first pic you get taken to the last post in the thread ....eh voila

Much clearer now, thanks Lori 

@Lori another bug to report. The page listing all forums: https://www.gagajoyjoy.com/ the last replies shown are showing the originator's name of the topic with the last reply on that forum rather than the name of the poster.
The forum pages themselves do show the right name.

That's a good tip, @Baz, but he's looking for the first post that he hasn't read. That link is specific to each user.

Wow, good find! I'll report it.

I may have found an unofficial work around for the loss of the first unread post. It seems that the coding behind the forum pages has retained some of the coding for that.

On the forum pages which list the topics for that forum look at any topic which you have read before but has since had new posts.
DO NOT CLICK ON LAST REPLY. Instead right click on the last reply and select Copy Link Location.
Paste that into the browser address bar.
From the right delete the text referring to last reply back to the = but not the = itself.
Then add after the = unread (so =unread)
Then press return for the browser to go ahead.
And it seems that you go to the first unread post.
No guarantee that this will always work and of course I hope that the first unread post link returns in the future.

Of course if there's only one post since you last read the topic it would just go to the last post anyway so there needs to be more than one new posting to see this.

I've heard that there will be a hotfix (today, presumably) to fix the bugs that we've reported. I've also been told that if you want the First Unread feature to return, you may want to put in a suggestion. What you might want to do is have one person put in the suggestion (e.g. @El Loro) and then anyone else that would like to do so could just go vote for that suggestion. 

Note that there is no guarantee that the feature will return, but it's worth a shot!

Thanks Lori ....if El puts in the suggestion I will definitely vote yes

Yes , I realised that after i had posted ...but thought it might help simplify the last post....and at least Renton could go back 5 posts 

I've now made a suggestion for you to vote on.

Click on the heart icon to vote and make a comment if you want to.

It looks as if you need to make a reply rather than a vote.

Done El
