WHY have you got rid of All On One Page?

I"m talking about people complaining about things they don't like.

will go back and work out where I'd got to earlier, but my bookmarks aren't working any more on threads I've read but not posted on. TIO still keeps my bookmarks (tested it on the long Strictly thread), but this one I read about 120 posts in, bookmarked it, and now I've come back to it, I don't get to where i left off.
Sorry if this has already been explained, but because of ^^ I don't know .

Now to go back and see if I can remember where i'd got to...

Actually, Soupy, most other sites wouldn't stuff up a major change like this (well, not ones I use, anyway).

And I am talking major sites, not ones with minor traffic. And, having lived with a Tech for years - if one of his sites had had reports of a major screw up like this, he would have been up all night fixing it, not waiting until the next day to try to work out what is going on.

Just saying...

Right am serious now. What's it gonna take?

Hey I'll even buy a MN mug I promise just purlease put it back to normal, I really don't take change well, it makes me feel all itchy and disorientated (though that could be the tramadol )

Rowan, yes that is what mine is doing. It is still 'read down like a book' but it is taking you to the bottom of the last page. So the most recent post.

The point is that on previously unread threads, we are being taken to the last post, not the first. Which is silly. Clicking on thread titles in eg TIW is taking us to the first post, not the last. Which is also silly.

FairPhyllis, that is it! It's like Tech has swapped Active and TIO settings.

Bookmarks not working for me on my iPad, IOS7, web view, not app or mobile site, and I have used them since day one, as I love them.

I have my settings to read from OP down the page, and use bookmarks to manage the thread, but it juts get taken to most recent post on every thread I open. Also, threads already opened are not consistently highlighted as 'already viewed'.

I have the issue with Active Conversations too.

If I click on any thread in Active I am taken to the most recent post at the bottom of the page (despite no bookmarks, and having customisation set to 'messages read down like a book').

So it is doing in Active what I want it to do in TIO.

AAAARRRRGGGHH.

I am using Firefox with XP.

When I clicked on the link to the merchandise thread rowan posted earlier (that I have never read/bookmarked) it took me to the first/oldest post. (correct as per my customise settings)

If I click on a thread title in Active (that I have never read/bookmarked) it takes me to the last/newest post. (incorrect per my customise settings)

Most other sites would just say "Tough" when people complain about changes.

Just saying...

I might turn MN off. What is the point of clicking on a new thread only to be taken to the last page and the most recent post? I need to read the OP before the replies.

From TIO, if I click the most recent poster's name, it takes me to that post, ie the most recent post of the thread.

If I select a random thread from Active that I've not looked at before, it takes me to the most recent post also.

I hate the mobile site, Tee, it looks all wrong :( And you can't use bookmarks with Classic display anyway, but thank you! More knowledge is more power to my elbow :)

Update. From Active, I saw that BadBadKitten's Christmas weather forecast thread, which I am on, and had bookmarked the last post I read, was not highlighted. When I clicked on it, I was thrown straight to the end, not to my bookmark. At least I had my own post highlighted to help me navigate.

Okay, thanks, rusty. I might have to move off Classic if we are stuck with 500 post maximum, then.

Evilgiraffe if you're on the mobile site and have bookmarks on, it's a link, not a hoverer.

My threads clicked/not clicked colour change is variable atm (not helpful!).

So, for eg, this thread - I click on active convos, and it is highlighted. I click somethign else, click back to Active, and it's not highlighted.

It seems completely random.

Evil giraffe - on iPad you just touch the post you want to bookmark briefly (if you touch too long it tries to copy) and the bookmark button appears- touch hat and it says saving, then saved.
