stehos Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 There should be a link to go to the first unread post in the topic wil. Top of the topic box, right hand side. That is possible to get to the last unread post, thank you Andy, works perfectly Still, for me anyway, I would prefer when opening a thread the latest post comes first (just as on the old forum, when you had the possibility to select how to open a thread).

Andy Posted January 15, 2012 Author Share Posted January 15, 2012 You have the option jack. You just click the time the post was posted, e.g. Clicking '5 minutes ago' will take you to the last post in a topic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Or the little round button to the left of the post Jack... if you've posted in that topic yourself then the button is a hexagonal shape.. takes you to the first unread.... I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uremoder Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Hi there, great looking new forum, only problem i have is if i click on a link to a photo in a thread it says i do not have permission to see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted January 18, 2012 Author Share Posted January 18, 2012 Sounds strange. Is anyone else having this issue? Unless the image your are clicking is a photobucket link and its a private gallery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 andy, not sure if its just me but i am having a few issues today, seems very slow opening topics and messages, and i have had this message several times today as well www.farmtoysforum.com Driver Error There appears to be an error with the database.

Andy Posted January 30, 2012 Author Share Posted January 30, 2012 Thanks for letting me know mate. I know of a few issues with these sorts of problems. They usually go away after a click or two but do seem to crop up from time to time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMurF Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 For us dislexic lot where oh where is the spell checker or am i just not seeing it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I'm also a member of the National Dyslexic Association, or DNA for short ... Sadly the forum software doesn't have such a luxury now Scott.. I think you can enable your browser to spellcheck for you though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 I'll post a topic with how to do it for each browser available. Unfortunately, some of the older versions, particularly, of IE do not have it as part of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leakeyvale Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Firefox has a spell checker which works extremely well now and works in the same way Word does by underlining the error with right mouse-click givinh options! I am pleased about this because it stopped working on the old forum! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leakeyvale Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Sue how do you activate the spell checker on the latest Firefox because it isn't working on mine > Right mouse-click on a word in a reply and you will get a short menu which has "check Spelling" Select that if not checked already and then click on Language and select English UK.

CMB Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I think there's still a ban on txt-spk though, is that right moderators? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbo Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Yes that's right Chris, the problem is that we have quite a few members from Europe and beyond and they don't understand text talk and abbreviations Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
