Lotustalk Navigation Question - LotusTalk

Gary B · 06-05-2008, 01:16 PM

Ok, it's not like I'm a complete newbie to the forum. However, I'm now using my iPhone to keep up. I sign on and choose "new posts" to view all new posts since my last sign on. When I read a thread that has more than one page to it, is there any way to go directly back to the new post page that I was on? Right now I either have to 1: "previous page" multiple times until I get to the specific new post page I was on or 2: hit "new posts" again and try to get back to the page I was looking at (such as 5 out of 12) - which has changed anyway due to the new posts added just since I logged on?

Thanks in advance

there should be a list of numbers in the bottom right that you can click to go directly to a page, but it only shows a small range, but the < and > should take you to the end and start pages.

Not familiar with the iphone at all, but in many web browsers, next the the "back" button there is an arrow that can be clicked to show a list of the pages gone through. When I want to go back several pages, I click that and pick the correct page from the drop down (the little black down arrow next to the green back button):

Does your iphone have that feature in its browser?

and leave the new/active posts when i get to my laptop or desktop

I have that problem too.
Not only are the reply to thread links not working for me, it's getting much much worse.
Had a link take me 18!!!!!! pages off from the right place!
Plus the jinking, jerking and jiving that the SLOW pages always do.
Most times I just get bored and end up on another forum while I'm waiting and don't come back.
Nice forum while it lasted.
Is it good to market on a forum that really pisses people off?
That's not how I would set it up.
