@jeffreyway First, thanks for implementing going to the last reply when clicking on the time link from the thread view!

There is one problem with it though and it has to do with infinite scrolling. If you click the link and the "last post" isn't within the first batch of results that comes back, it doesn't go to the last post, it goes to the first post. On really long threads (ones that used to take up multiple pages) it takes a lot of scrolling to actually get to the last post.

One thing the old forum did that this one doesn't, which makes it a bit harder to use, is highlight updated threads that you haven't read yet on the thread view pages. In other words, there currently isn't a way to see that you've read the thread or not, and don't know if there are new replies since you last read it. The old forum highlighted the word "updated" in bluegreen text making it really stand out if there were replies you haven't seen yet.

I know you've been very busy and appreciate all of the work you've put into this!

It did show 'updated' but it seems to have been lost with the change to show the last poster

@snapey Yes, but on the old forum the word "updated" went away after you've visited the thread, leaving only "updated" text showing for the threads you haven't read yet which made it really obvious what threads you're caught up on and/or haven't read yet.

@cronix It was doing that last night - tonight, no updated to be seen anywhere
