9 replies

any chance of a refresh button at the bottom of everything..?? Back to top is good but refresh at the bOttom would be better.
(unless there is a quick way like F5 on my iphone that I don't know yet..if there is can you tell me please?)

Hi poshme , thank you for the suggestion.
Would anyone else like to see this option?

Me please! Am usually on mobile version and get v frustrated if I'm trying to keep up with a fast moving thread and have to go back to top, refresh on address bar, scroll down, find place etc.
Refresh button would be wonderful. Smile -can't find a [grovel] emoticon.

And well done archfiend- you explain it much better than me!
Anyone else???

Second this, plus I would really like a 'down to the beginning of the thread' button please :)

Hi everyone,

Thanks for your feedback. A refresh button is certainly do-able. We would most likely add it just before the add message form, along with the usual watch/flip/hide buttons (to stop it getting lonely). If people are happy with this idea (or at least amiably apathetic), we can put it in place sometime soon-ish.

Feel free to get on your soapboxes, as always. Grin

Oh yes please! I get thumb ache from the constant scrolling up (too foolish to have thought of using 'back to top' though will do so now).

A handy little tip for iPhone BTW: If you tap the status bar (the bit at the top with the clock on it), you'll instantly scroll to the top of any page you're on. Can be handy when browsing, although you need reasonably fine fingertips to press it accurately! :)

Oh wow, Damian, thanks!

Damian thank you for the iPhone tip- that's really helpful... And please please please can we have refresh at the bottom... With watch flip hide would be great.
Please please...
