In many forums there is a way to reach a specific post, as each post has a number. Some threads become very long, very fast, and its hard to always remember where one posted in a certain thread.

Is there any way to implement an option where I can return to my last post in a thread, so I can see who, if anyone, has responded to me, without having to spend tons of time searching each page to look for where I last posted in a thread?

If there's no option, have you ever considered making one to make using ATS more user friendly?

Flagged... will be watching for a good answer to a question I have also wondered about.

When you're in your profile click on the Posts link at the top to bring up all your posts. In the far right column you'll notice a link that takes you to your posts "in thread." When you click that, it will bring up all your posts in that thread.

Likewise in the same Posts page, you can click on a link under the "Single" column, and that will bring up the individual post in a thread.

The problem is that it doesn't take you to the post in the thread with all the other posts. It either takes you to the single post, which is good for referencing yourself in previous threads. Or it takes you to a list of all posts you have made.

This is different than being taken to page 7 of 21 where you last posted, and being able to read the thread from where you last partook of it and see what everyone else has posted, which is what I'm wondering about.

Although I am not familiar with the forum code, it looks like the problem is that when we are reading a thread the forum code "needs" to know in which page that post is (probably to make it faster).

Using something like the "this post" link on our posts list could solve the problem, but I don't know if there are any technical problems with implementing that system.
