When I load a thread, I am not getting the “\< Last Thread” and “Next Thread \>” links at the top and bottom of the page. Is this happening to anyone else?

It’s happening both in IMHO and ATMB (Haven’t tried any of the other forums yet). I’ve tried refreshing several times and also going back and re-entering the thread.

The techs may have done some work on the board. When they do, it takes a while for “last thread” and “next thread” to show up, there’s a lag of sometimes as much as hour or before the system catches up to itself.

Sorry for your inconvenience.
