When you're in the forum index or in a specific forum, look at the column all the way to the right titled "Last Post" and, of course, you can see who posted most recently and at what time. We all probably knew that, right?

Well, I always that it was just informational and not functional. But if you click on the little icon that looks like a word document (piece of paper) and/or the arrow beside it, it takes you straight to that post. No need to open the thread and scroll down and no need to click on "3" of "Page 1, 2, 3" to get there.

Don't know why I never noticed those before and never tried to click them, but I think it's cool and thought I'd share. :)

Kinda feels like the first time I learned just how much you can do when you right-click. Now I do it all the time. :)

I've used that feature before a few times, but enjoy using the "View posts since last visit" feature just about constantly; which I believe I brought up a poll question some months back.

Even there, you can use it, because you still get a list of all the thread and then you can click that icon to get to the last post within the thread. :)

Didn't know that before Duck. Reminds me of the time I discovered the 'quick reply' option, although that's a little too obvious, don't know why I didn't see it from the beginning. But I had no idea about the last post option - that does save lots of time! Thanks.
