Last Post on Index Should Go To Last Unread - Moonface - 05-24-2019

It may just be me because of how my board is set up to not do this, but I find clicking on the Last Post link for a thread on the index taking me to the very last post of the thread being nothing short of annoying. It negates the entire point of using that link to access an active thread, because I have to then go and find where I left off. It was better on ZB where clicking that took you to the last unread post, and is why I changed it for my board.

If you want to do this, then just open the forumdisplay.php file and change line 1187 to this:
 
PHP Code:
$thread['lastpostlink'] = get_thread_link($thread['tid'], 0"newpost");

You know, I saw this myself but I didn't think about bringing it up. Hope this gets addressed soon enough.

I second this, and wiill donate my CC if needed.

I've made that change, but it seems like it's only doing this on the index within a forum (the links on the main board index are still taking you to the very last post in the thread).

I assume there's another similar change that needs to be made in another file?

I'm glad I'm not the only one bothered by this.

My bad. It might be this line in functions_forumlist.php:
 
PHP Code:
$lastpost_link get_thread_link($lastpost_data['lastposttid'], 0"newpost"); 

Should be around the 310 mark.
