Bug in message display.

[OldShooter]

When I click on a thread where I have already seen the latest message, I am transported to the original post #1. Very annoying, as then I have to click on the most recent block and scroll/drag to the end. This has to be a bug; I can see no purpose to it.

I’ve noticed that and haven’t found a workaround

IMO workarounds are for behavior that the vendor won't or can't fix. This is a flat-out bug and there should be a trouble ticket submitted and followed up tenaciously.

What happens if you click on the time stamp? (Instead of the thread title?) Example: Click on the time indicator "45 minutes ago" or "yesterday" or "Saturday at 4:30 pm".

This is what I do and it works.

Good workaround. Thx. I hate workarounds, though, even more than I hate incompetent release testing. I think the vendor should be squeezed.

Thanks, I never thought of doing that, and it’s helpful.

I think I've seen this. When I do, it seems usually when I have something else open in my browser (I'm using Safari). If I close my browser and start from the mail notification, the problem goes away (unless I get distracted and search for something else with the open browser - then I rinse, repeat.)

I haven't noticed the problem myself yet. Above post #1, there is a "Jump to New" button that probably is another workaround.

Yes, that "Jump to New" button works once you are inside the thread. If you are on the home screen looking at a listing of thread titles that button is unavailable (I think.)

I experience this problem from my phone but not my laptop.

So disappointing how many bugs in this iteration of the forum. The bold, italic and edit/delete draft controls not eorking for me now. Maybe I forgot how to use them. Guess I’ll try the new app but not optimistic.
