Am I seeing things?????????

[slippinjimmy]

I'm being taken to the last READ post instead of the last post........

I have thought a few times over the past year(?) it had been fixed but I was mistaken. I just checked a few threads that have many new posts since I last read and it really looks like it's working again.

I need confirmation desperately because I might be lowing my mind!

I started not to comment for the fear of 'jinxing' us... but mine is working again, too! Hip, hip, hooray!!!

Can not beleive I had not noticed, just went to check, and YUP - last post read YAY

Yay! It's about time!

You're correct. We released an update on Wednesday afternoon. I haven't posted about this yet, because I need to get clarification from the development team on one thing I don't love about this new change.

Will post more early next week.

I'm dying of curiosity here... 🙂 What is the one thing you don't love about it?

I just opened a thread I had not previously visited at all. I was taken to post #19.

Conversely, I revisited a thread I had read earlier, and it took me to the OP's Message #1.

SMH.

Don't know about the first thread, but for the second thread that sounds like how it's supposed to work. When you've read an entire thread, the "jump to first unread post" feature takes you back to the OP since there are no unread posts.

If you're saying there were new posts since your last visit and it took you to the OP instead, then that's different.

I've had this happen inconsistently and there were additional posts to it that I had not read.....

just my logic....which is probably no one else's', but I would think if one had read the entire thread it should take you back to the last post...........since everything previously had been read.

There were indeed new posts that had been added to the thread since I had read it.

Good. Then it's not just me! Thee were additional post I had not read in the thread, too.

That's my logic as well, @dhbookds. The first unread post is not the original post under any stretch of the imagination. I agree it should take you to the last post--not the first post--even if you've read every single one of them.

Maybe the community software team will be hosting one of the new monthly chats. We can ask about it then.
