When does last post equal first page?

[the gadfly]

Whenever I visit a forum and check the threads I've posted in, if I hover the cursor over the envelope with a black dot, I'm told I have X posts and "go to my last post." If I left-click, I inevitably wind up in page one of the thread. What's going on?

I can't explain it, but that's happened to me too.

That happens to me alot too, I usually have to browse before I find my post in a big topic.

I've also noticed, sometime when I post it will be at the bottom of a page, but then a few minutes later it starts a new page!

Almost certainly an error with a template that hasn't yet been fixed for the new version. I'll get onto these errors shortly.

I think that is easily explainable: Using Quick Reply adds the post to the page without reloading it. The only change in this case is if any posts are made while you were writing yours. (Edit: Like Archaic's above post. ) However, the page limit still applies and so the standard is simply not seen until you leave that page.

If it happens differently, then I dunno...

It doesn't happen to me, which means it might be fixed.

 

[Archaic]

Yes, all the template problems should be fixed as of last night.

Not quite. Now if I hover the cursor over the envelope, I get "you have X posts in this thread, last mm/dd/yy." Click and nothing happens. I suppose it's an improvement from before in that it doesn't dump me in page one. If I can't go directly to my last post, could you at least tell me what page it's on?

Thought I'd bump this thread so the people in charge don't forget.
