Autorefresh/last poster named

Satanta · August 25, 2000, 05:19 PM

I've noticed on this board that if I or someone else posts, then I leave and come back-even tho two or three others might have posted, it always shows the last post I made or read...I have to refresh the page to see the next ones. Also, it's kind of annoying to post something then be taken back to the same page-how about taking back to the forum in which we are in after the post?

Another thought-under the space where it shows the last time/date the thread was posted on...how about the name of the last person posting to that topic as well? Helps save some hassles if you know who posted and it's still the same person, instead of having to open and then reload the thread to check it out.

Nice board BTW.

I had the same problem with the new post not showing. I discovered it was the way my internet preference were set and not the site. If you change your preferences to up date with each visit to the page it will then show the new post without having to refresh.
As far as being taken back to the forum and showing the last person posting I suspect that is part of the server. If so let's just be thankful that Rich has now provided us with a server that is working. (I probably should not have said that and risked jinxing us.
