Is there an option to be taken to the most recent unread message? All I seem to be able to do is load either the first or last post in a given thread, and that is annoying.

You can go to the last message by clicking the arrow+page on the right side.

Agreed, it's pretty annoying, specially in threads that get over 5 pages of replies while I sleep.

iv started leaving "bookmark" comment in larger threads that get heated.

That's actually not a terrible workaround, but should lots start doing it the problem just gets multiplied.

Is there a "forums QoL request" forum or thread anywhere? This function is default for most forums software packages, should be relatively easy to implement

Should be but it might break the pos code.

Guess you could post the idea in the sub forum - Features & Ideas Discussion

Or you could post the issue in the sub forum - Issues, Workarounds & Localization

I think you actually mean the earliest un-read posted reply within a specific thread instead of the most recent un-read posted reply. The most recent un-read posted reply would be the last reply in the thread.

For now if you want to keep track and browse an entire discussion within a specific thread you can always note down the page you're on and the next time you visit that thread just use the page selector located in the bottom left corner.

Hope that helps and good luck to you.

Yes I meant the first unread message.

Thanks for the links.
