Title: Forum always moving to new post
Post by: rhysb on September 13, 2011, 12:41:39 PM
Guys, just a problem I am having when browsing the site on my iPad, when I click on a post to read it, it will load fine and at the bottom of the post (where the newest post is on that subject) but if I them scroll back up to the rest of the older messages it will immediately go straight back to the bottom post again??

Seems strange but very annoying and I can't browse the site properly

im no expert here but ever since u re installed the forum software it appears to run live, basically u dont have to refresh to view any updates, happens every couple of seconds, when it auto refreshes it causes the page to jump back to the top, it can happen sometimes with firefox also.

Maybe the issue is there somewhere?

Try TapaTalk, makes browsing forums so much easier when not using a mouse and  keyboard. It supports both IOS and Droid.

Interesting.  Maybe it has to do with the mod I have installed that refreshes the who's online page..  I will try to disable that and maybe that will help.  Give me a few minutes.

Seems to be intermittent. At least I know I'm not the only one suffering from it now.

Well it's still doing it Trevor. Something is still causing it to rubber band to the last post on my iPad.

This is a setting in your user control panel.  What happens is it takes you to the most resent post in a thread.  If you edit your options in your profile, and make the "Newest posts appear on the top of the page" you shouldn't see this happen anymore.

Trev, this got cleared up by clearing my cache and history again... since I did that it hasn't happened again at all.
