In the regular forum view there’s that little arrow next to the thread title that you can click that will take you to the last post in the thread. Is there a way to have that option when I search posts by my username?

If I’ve posted on page 2 of a thread and the thread has reached page 4, I don’t want to have to go into the thread at page 1 or wherever my post was and then select the last page. I want to just go straight to the last page from the search list.

If you set your preferences to “subscribe to threads you’ve posted in” then when you click USER CP you will see all the threads you’ve posted in with new posts. Then you can click the little arrow beside the thread title and go to the most recent posts.

This is a solution of a sort.

Works for me. Thanks!
