Something New Has Been Added: "View First Unread"

Xfaxman · Mar 19, 2017

View First Unread When did this Happen?

Any other changes?

The one most needed change is uploaded pictures automatically resized smaller to fit the screen and not use so much of my metered Hughes Net time.

WHAT! There's been a change... I don't like 'change'... I just got used to the last change and now they've changed it again.

Unless it's one of those good changes. In which case I'll embrace it wholeheartedly.

I'm boggled. :confused3:

I've been using that feature for a LONG time. Especially handy in threads like Good Morning.

I was going to say, that's been here a long time. You won't notice it if you use the old skin or generally use subforums that don't use the new skin as they take you to the first unread post by default. That only shows up if you click on the link that takes to the first posts in the thread.

I use the old skin, because, last I checked, the new skin never got all of the complaints about it taken care of.

The first post about the new design: http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/...-update-test-out-post4162453.html#post4162453

One way to switch designs, ckick "My Home" at the top center of the page, then click "General Settings" on the left side of the page and select the one that you want to use:

It has been part of the 2015 view. If I remember correctly when I first joined you could set your default view to "View First Unread". That would be nice to have that back.

OHHHHHHhhhh... well there you go. I must be using an 'old' skin. Or something. :confused3:

Anyway, I guess that my default has always been set to automatically "view first unread" 'cause that's what it does.

Mind you, I did/do have to teach the dictionary function to spell correctly. Fair dinkum, it doesn't even know how to spell 'dinkum'!
