OK, to all my sidebar loving people out there...
I played around and tried to get something together that may work for you. As we've discussed, we are moving to 1 sidebar only for mobile friendliness. And, we need to keep sponsors and ads at the top to pay the bills. So Recent Threads can't move up from where they are. Since the threads are being ordered by "Threads with recent posts in them", they link to the newest post within that thread. If you have your settings set to "Linear - Newest First", we suggest you change it to "Linear - Oldest First" in your options. That issue is unrelated to the recent update, it happened in an update back in December, and there is no fix on the horizon. Sorry about that. I know people used to park on the home page and watch those sidebars though, you've made that clear after the relaunch. So here is something I hope will help with that. http://www.hisstank.com/forum/page.php?page=home Check that page out. Shows recent threads - General, Customs, BST, Off Topic. 2 columns. Main link goes to first page. Two little icons next to title - first goes to the "first new post" based on last time you visited, and the second just goes straight to the "last post". If you guys like this, I can add it into the top navigation, as a drop down of "Forum". That way, you can easily go there from anywhere on the site. I can also tweak that some more, show more, less, different breakdowns of posts, etc. LMK what you think, if you like it we can make it permanent.

How come the recent threads with new/unread posts on the home page aren't in bold like they are when you look at the list within the forum?
The "go to first new post" doesn't work in linear-newest first mode. It just takes me to the highest numbered page in the thread, which in that mode is the oldest page, not the newest. I don't want to switch out of that mode because in that mode I immediately see the newest post in a thread on the top of my screen when I refresh. It was always easier than being in the other mode, refreshing the last page in a thread and either having to scroll to the bottom to see the new post, or click to the next page.

Where are you clicking that you're starting at the end? If you click certain icons, it will bring you to the last post (most recent post) as opposed to the first page (oldest/first post). Can you advise where you're clicking so that we can make sure there isn't an issue? I know others have been instructed in this thread to change their thread layout settings, but I can't seem to duplicate the issues some of you Gents are having. For example:
Let's say I'm looking at this thread in the most recent or whatever, if I click on the main title link, it brings me to the first page: However, if I click on "last page" (obviously) or the icon near the person who last posted, it brings me to the last page: If you guys are doing this (clicking on the title link and nothing else) and it's still bringing you to the last page, you can edit that setting under the path laid out above. |

I'm clicking on the thread titles on the front page under recent threads. What you are showing is what I would see if I click on forum at the top of the front page and enter a section like general discussion. When I do that and click on a title it takes me to the first post as my settings are linear - oldest first. Clicking on a thread title on the front page takes me to the last post of the thread. It didn't do this before.
If you have your settings so that newest posts show up on the first page, what is called "Linear - Newest First" in your settings, that will be broken. It was broken in an update that happened a while ago, and we don't have a fix yet. |

Just a quick update, I've added in the "Watchers" page to the navigation.
Now, anywhere on the site, you can hover over "Forum" in the top navigation strip, and see a link to this page: http://www.hisstank.com/forum/page.php That acts more like old school sidebars. The primary link goes to first page. The little arrow icons go to new post/last post. It's broken down to different sections. Hope that helps some folks out with the transition. |

Thanks Tony. I like that page a lot. Now you don't have to scroll down to the bottom on the home page.
