Q: 'View More' bug

If I select 'View More' at the foot of a community page I get another page starting with the next oldest post - as expected. 

 

If I go to a post then hit the (Safari) back button, only the first page shows again.  However, when I click again on 'View More' I do not get the next oldest page but an older one.   

 

This makes viewing older posts very cumbersome.

    Hi Geoff,

     

    Thanks for your original question. It stimulated some positive discussion.

     

    Hi CCC, I have added your solution to a draft User Tip on how to get the best out of this new-look forum.

     

    Draft (not published):

     

    When I use the 'View More' button, then the browser 'Back' button, then 'View More' again, I do not get the next oldest page but an older one. This makes viewing older posts very cumbersome.

    Click the 'View More' as many times as you want, yielding a really long list.

    Use that page as kind of a Base Camp.

    Instead of a plain Click on a link and BrowserBack to navigate, try command Click to open a new tab with the target link.

    When done, close the Tab - and you are back where you started.

    The link you command Clicked will likely be Underlined to remind which you clicked.

    You may even find that you like this better.

     

    Your comments to improve that draft are most welcome. I like the idea of a base camp. We can go 'home'.

     

    Regards,

    Ian.

    Hi Yellowbox,

     

    Draft is fine by me.  Good idea to make a User Tip.  There are several answers in other threads that i'd like to make user tips of but I have to wait until I've reached the dizzy heights of 4000 points.

     

    Geoff.

    Your suggestion is irrelevant.  

     

     

    Your "looking for positive......"  thread, in fact IS A POLL.

     

     

    you violated your own advice.
