As you may have noticed, we we're offline this morning. This was caused by the "Thanks" plug-in going rogue and using up way too many server resources. This triggered an automatic suspension by our hosting provider as they thought it was a malicious attack. The "Thanks" plug-in has been disabled, hopefully temporarily so I can determine if that was indeed the cause, and take steps to prevent it from happening in the future.

I apologize for the disruption and for any confusion that may have caused.

Hyperlink to bottom of page

Post by watchpalooza »

Hi MoT,

When I click into a page of a thread, the page loads scrolled up to the top of the page. This means I must every time scroll down to the bottom to the current post. Is there a way around this that perhaps I am missing? On a PC it is no problem, but on mobile devices it can be cumbersome. I typically use Tapatalk on my phone so no issue, but prefer to view the full site on my ipad. I did notice that there is a link (up arrow) in the footer of every post that takes the user to the top of the page. Perhaps it would be possible to add another next to it (down arrow) to take the user to the bottom of the page or latest post?

If you click on the circled image on a thread with unread posts, it will take you directly to the first unread.
