Admins, currently when I open a thread, it jumps straight to the last post, and shows the quick reply box. I'm sure when I first started on the forum, it would open at the first post, with the option for a quick reply. Can this be changed by the user, and if so how?

And the quick reply box doesnt have the option of smilies!

[EricaVFR]

Ok so here I am being brave and trying it - wondered what this was for! Has it worked?!?!

[alansh]

I just opened this thread and it stopped at the top - since I hadn't seen it before. So, it works for me.

Quick reply is just that - a quick reply. If you want smilies, click on "post reply".

If you all really don't like it, I can remove it - but I can't change how it works.

It jumps to the bottom when I open a thread too.

Didn't use to. Is there something I can click to stop it as it's very annoying.

Dave, if you use the "View latest Posts" feature the new postings all come up with a little pink(?) square with an arrow on the left. That's the "Go to latest post" button. It's a feature of phpBB that I really like (the SMF s/w that we use on sohc4 doesn't have that functionality... [imagine "sad" smiley here - I'm using "Quick Reply" - another feature that I quite like!]

I alway use view new posts, but I don't get any of the pink square and arrow

[SteveD CB500F]

Like this?

Looks more like a page rather than a "little pink square..."

[Dave M]

I do that but when I go to the actual post and open it, it opens at the top of the page then after a few seconds jumps to the bottom of the page and the Quick Reply box.

Further to my problem of opening a thread, and it jumping to the last post:
I changed my theme from Arrow to Silver, and threads now open correctly, so I can only assume that the problem is embedded in the theme!

[Dave M]

It still happens on all my computers so I'll try changing my colour scheme and see if that works for me.

[Dave M]

Just changed my colour scheme to Sub Silver and the problem has disappeared.

Thanks Jimmy. : )
