I don't see these 2 things tho I may not be seeing the forest for the trees.

(1) Is there a direct way to get to say page 81? It's really tedious to go to the last page and go back 4 pages at a time. I did this on Friday going back to page 100 but part way back it refused to let me keep going. I got around it but now I need to get back to the 80's.

(2) Is there a way to click on a link that shows just threads that have had posts added to them since my last visit? I use another php designed forum and they have that feature. Rather than roam thru forums I get a list of threads to click on… very nice!

Thanks,

Tom

okay i just stumbled across the view new posts! this is great, glad to see it here.


so how about getting back to page 40 or page 80?

I just edit the URL.
https://www.hearth.com/econtent/index.php/forums/viewforum/2/P2500/

The number in "P2500" at the end, change the number and you change how far back you go.

Edit.
You change it in increments of 25 for a full page.

Edit. Edit.
Looks like the P number is the page number you want times 25 minus 25.
Pnum = (80 * 25) - 25

Edit. Edit. Edit.
The threads on page 80 will change as new threads are started.
