| Add ability to go to last added post in a message thread I would like to request to see if The ability to add the "e" to the end of each topic is available.
I have my forum preferences set to show "Topics/Posts" to 100 per page (picture above).
If the post count goes to 101,with my preferences set you get the "e" at the end and that would take you to the last post of the entire thread. If you only have 99 posts, I would have to scroll the entire topic to get to the last post. I think it would be convenient for folks that read many topic/posts that are short to have the ability to go automatically to the last post if it is under their selected threshold per page.
Thank you, and hopefully this request won't be too difficult to make if folks sign.

Trying not to be a smart ass, but I don't have an end key on either my tablet or phone. Some keyboards also do not have the full insert/page up/page down/home/end arrangement.
Like I said in my original post, I'm not looking for a huge development effort. This ability is already apart of posts that go over your personal preference threshold. I'm just looking to see if that can be extended to all posts, or even a feature you can enable.

I'm in the same boat when browsing on the phone or iPad, and with my prefs set for 100 posts per page, it does make for a bit of swiping to get down to the bottom. Maybe even just a 'page bottom' link in the top of the topic somewhere wouldn't be bad either. |

| Lots of forum s/w have 'go to top' links, so having a 'go to bottom' button at the top of a page and 'go to top' button at the bottom (near the paging controls?) seems logical. (Of course, you'll see a lot more 'e' links with the default per page # and the bottom will always be "closer" top... why have it at 100?)

Thank you for the replies so far. I think there are a few good ideas here. I still think the easiest thing to code should be the one implemented. I don't know squat for coding because I'm a hardware guy. I think I would need help from Justin or Cabana. They would be able to tell us the easiest thing to add without causing hours of work.
So at this point - we need a few folks to reply with **Sign** to get this rolling.

You can already go to the first unread post, that will stop scrolling through what you have already seen. |

You know exactly what I'm talking about.

Using a tablet even the small e is hard tap with a finger. I think once a Topic is opened there should be a "last post button" or a large E .
