The "topics from past" links on the top right now work properly. I have added a 1 week option and the "new" icons behave as expected now.

Don't know if I'm missing something but have we lost the 'first unread post' option?

If you click on the "new" icon it takes you to the first unread post

Click the notify option at the bottom of the thread. If you want this on by default for all threads you are in you can select that option in your profile.

Hi Admin

All looking good and I like the new site  ;)

Quick question that I'm sure has been discussed but I can't find an answer - why does Mozilla keep asking me to log on regardless of the fact I log on forever each time I visit?

Seems to work OK on my Mac, my iPhone and iPad - albeit on my iPad I use tapatalk HD and when I read a new post it doesn't automatically then remove it from my screen much as it does on my iPhone (probably a setting in tapaptalk?)

Cheers  :thumbsup:

Not sure about the tapatalk issue but in terms of Mozilla, are you per chance using a bookmark? If so delete it, delete all xdrivers cookies, restart the browser and see if that helps. I am having trouble replicating some of the issues but those steps seem to have resolved it for most

Cane someone PM ITBarbie with the Tapatalk instructions? She PM-ed me that she can not use it, but I don't use it and could only provide the standard advice as discussed in this thread.

Is it me, but in my messages I can't seem to find ones that are sent but haven't been read yet, ( outbox ).

What sort of instructions? Did she use it before and it is not working now? If she is having trouble since the move the best advice is to delete tapatalk and re-install it fresh. If it is that she has not used it before then once installed she just needs to search for "xdrivers" and then enter her login details.

It's not just you. SMF does not work in the same way so there is no "outbox" as such. There is a mod that will enable you to tell when messages have been read or not but at this point in time I would prefer not to go to "mod crazy" and let things settle down.

Using it before but no longer working was the question she raised.

I will suggest the delete / reinstall route.
