Hi Mr Keefy

a thought for you - I tend to use the new posts option which shows the subject and the link to the latest post

as I regularly look at the same post subject what is the possibility of a facility for a link to the last post viewed so that I/We can pick up from the last time rather than the last post and then going backwards to see what is new

know you like programming so a challenge for you

Also if possible can we have a favourites box, trying to find interesting pieces of information I read later is a nightmare. While we are on it :) tried playing 80's - 90's hits on the radio link but nothing happened. Is it me? (highly possibly I know)
It is what it is.

And Keefy...while your doing all these other modifications could you add a button I can press that will start my coffee machine so that I don't have to get up and do it myself and can stay here reading. Thank you. :)

@ Chiddy

You can alter the way you see your posts in decending/ascending order in your user control panel once you have viewed a post it will be taken from the posts viewed list till a new post is made in that topic, what you have not viewed though should still show in the list.

@ dsaxelby

At the top right of a topic there is a pull down menu Topic view post options click this and choose bookmark topic, you can then find all your bookmarked topics in your user control panel.

Maybe the 80's, 90's is off air at the moment, I will keep checking it (it was working a few days ago though).

@ Hepzi

I had to remove the button due to abuse :lol:

descending wouldn't help as would have to scroll through possibly lots of posts - what I was asking for is a "flag" marking the last post read and then to scroll through in ascending sequence from that point

there is clearly something set whereby the system knows what is new since last login - just another level to pick up the last post viewed

You could always do what I do. I view new topics, click on them, and press the End key - then I scroll up the screen - normally only through a few posts.
I might agree with you, but then we'd both be wrong!

There is a quicker way Stan by just clicking on the last post icon :)

I do that but if it is a popular topic and has been a few days it is a lot of scrolling

I think that it would be good for an audio app then you could just lie back and have them read out to you with stop, repeat, next post and reply options. But not Keefys voice.

Preparing my audition tape - who do I send it to? I know I've got the perfect body for radio and am told I have the right voice too! Contract dependant on T & C's offered.
