Sorry if this is a dumb question but I figured it was worth putting here.

I thought the little arrow button next to a post title in the Forum Index was supposed to be the equiavalent to the "skip to first unread" link that is next to post titles in the individual subforums.

However, that arrow is now taking me to the latest post in the thread.

Maybe I just misunderstood it up to this time! Seems like it would be more useful for it to "skip to first unread" instead of the latest post, though.

Pretty sure those always take you to latest post as they are the same as the ones on the normal list inside the sub-forums.

That would be wicked cool if they went to skip to first unread though.

The arrows skip to last post in the thread, not last unread.

I left them as skip to that post to be consistent with other forums people may have used. If there was a different yet obvious icon I could use for skip to first unread, then I'd add it, but I dont have one so have not

I will have to think about icon possibilities then . Might posit a few in this thread when I come up with them!
