I notice that when you are in the forums, just below the menu bar (News Reviews How-to Forums), on certain forum index pages there are links to all the other forums, whereas on others, just your current location (e.g You are here>Homepage>Forums>Helproom)

The forums with ALL the links are Business, Speakers Corner, Mobile World and Windows8.

I find that having all the links available is more convenient.

Anyone else any preference?

I too sometimes get the same problem going to the last reply in the thread, I generally use chrome, however the fault doesn't occur consistently. It may happen once with one thread and a refresh clears it or not as the case may be.

Sometimes it will occur with a reply of less than a few minutes old, other times the thread can be an hour or more old, no consistency to it.

I to get the same problem with the last response link, I'm using chrome as well. Like the others say it is an inconsistent problem sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't.

Just gone through a few threads using Firefox using an iMac. Came to the PCA Mobile Site thread and got this Click Here

What is interesting is what it says at the top of the page.

"Page 2 PCA Mobile Site"

This thread had only one page (9 postings). It seems the link is opening to a page that has not yet been populated with postings.

Left it a moment and tried again and it went into the thread correctly on page 1.

I use Chrome as my default browser, and have never once had the problem - weird.

We'll look into it.

Not sure if this is related to the issues raised. But I find on occasions that I can post a reply on say page 2/3 or whatever, and after posting I am directed straight back to say page 1, yet the response was published as a new start to the next numbered page (if that makes sense?). Then I have to check the last posting page, to see if my response as been posted.

Usually via Google Chrome, which I find is perhaps one of the best browsers for this website.

D@ve

Thanx for pointing me in the right direction. I never noticed them there. Before, they were in the dark grey area, at the very foot of the page. In a verticle line, under the heading 'FORUMS'.
