"Go to latest post" button error?

Post by Magrus »

I have noticed for a while that the little double arrow button that you can click to go to the latest post on threads hasn't worked. It hasn't been a big deal, but still, it doesn't work so I thought I would mention it. Now, it does work when I enter into the actual forums section of the site. It does not work when I am on the homepage and click on the button in the little listing of the most recent posts. This makes me think that it may just be me who is having this problem.

If not, I was wondering if that is supposed to work that way?

Btw, I get this message when I click on those buttons on the homepage:

For me, it works fine...
I tried with lates version of Opera and IE, with several threads, and it works both from the forum 's main page and from the subforum itself...

What browser are oyu using and what version??
And since when has this problem bothered you??

Firefox, the latest edition, and for the past few months I would say. I shrugged it off becuase it works when I actually enter into the forums, just not from the links on the homepage.

I don't use IE at all to be honest. I blocked its access with my firewall and I believe I deleted the program when I set everything up in april when I got this computer.

Have no problem using Firefox either.

However, the error you list usually is one given when you try to go to a post/thread which have been "pruned" (a short of deletion open to super mods. and administrators) and thus does not exists any more.

Indeed. The error does not make sense however, as that is happening for threads that are still there. As I said, not a big deal, it is only when I click on the buttons from the home page. I didn't know if others were having it or not so I figured I would mention it and see. If it is just me having the error, I can deal with that easily enough.

Well, that would be obvious...
But how I understood the Mag's problem is that it's with the all threads, not matter if they exist anymore or not...

I just did yeah. Still happening. *shrugs* If it's just me having the problem I wouldn't fret over it. I was more curious to see if it was happening with others or not as the buttons do work when I enter into the actual forum area.
