Any Hope for This New GS Truck Camper Group?
It's been a few weeks since the old forum was shut down and this new forum opened up, but I only see a few old members have joined and not really much for posts (20 total members as of the last few d...

Actually making the (forum) change during the off season is strategic genius. It reduces the grumping and grousing about how they don't like change to a dull roar so it doesn't drive off everyone. They get used to it and help the rest when they come back in the spring. New members won't know any different.

I hope you're correct! I still think it's a hard to read and navigate the site compared to every other forum I've been a part of or moderator of. As I am getting a little more used to this weird layout, I still miss being able to right to the unread posts on a thread. I have to scroll through pages and watch the date and time stamps and figure out where I left off. Maybe if the unread were bold type like the main threads are until read?

Agreed MORSNOW, I'm still trying to figure out why some times I go straight to the first unread post and sometimes it goes to the first post, even if I've read it before. But you might try your settings for jump to unread posts. I'm guessing it's already set to display unread first. Then again maybe it isn't.

Then again maybe it isn't.I have the same box checked, but like you've experienced it doesn't actually take you to the first unread post. Maybe it just puts the unread threads on top which I see as bold type until read, I wish the posts in the thread worked the same.
If you choose newest post first, it puts it right under the starting post for the thread. The problem you are seeing is when there are multiple pages in a thread, it displays on page one but takes you to the last page.
This is a forum formatting issue I hope will get resolved.

I tried that, but I still needed to scroll down to find where I left off reading the thread last visit so I can read posts progressively in order. That's where highlighted or boldened text would really help me. Thank you, Bedlam, I know change is hard on the moderators too!
