Obviously missing something incredibly simple. I see a thread with New and want to open it in a new tab positioned at the first unread post. On TCM, rt click icon in front of thread title/select new tab to do this; some other forums, rt click title/select new tab. Neither works here... If a thread has the New button in front of it, that means new posts have been added since you last read it. Hover over the New button for a second or two, then click on it, and it will take you to the first unread post in the thread. If you do not hover then click, if you just quickly click on the New button, it won't work.

Thanks, TB. Will have to wait now to try that when somebody posts something new on a thread I'm interested in.
Is there a way to go to the last post in a thread even if it's not new?
I tend to make cracks that at least I think are funny, so want to use the emojis at times. Many of the ones available here are not ones I've seen before, so would it be possible to have a pop-up description when hovering on one? If not, a sticky thread listing the emojis and their meanings? Also wish they were bigger, easier to see, in the selection drop-down. And wish there were ones for roll-eyes and bang-head-on-wall.

So many thanks to TopBilled for setting this up. I can't even imagine the work. It's taken me three days to find an avatar that wasn't too big (or some other problem I didn't understand.)

Just wanted to tell everyone that I'm still learning what actions are allowed on the admin account...someone asked about merging two threads, or moving a thread, and I haven't learned how to do that yet. Hopefully I will figure out those actions this weekend when I have more time.
Also, I don't want to make a Technical Issues section unless you all feel it's necessary. I think if people have questions about navigating the site and about using the various posting features, this thread is a good place to ask...
Thanks.

I'm amazed at what you have gotten accomplished in such a short period of time. Thank you, Topbilled, for all you've done.
The site looks really good and, even more importantly, the exchanges have been wonderfully civil, interesting and enjoyable. I'm hoping the site expands but keeps the same tone.
I agree with you, I think we can use this thread for Tech issues and, as you note, create a separate one later if need be.

Just read that this is a good place to ask about the posting features--any idea if you can create a poll?

I just registered yesterday, and just came here now to say hello. But I'll probably not spend much time here until TCM finally shuts down for good. But nice to find so many familiar "faces" here.
I'm familiar with proboards as a member of their "TALK MUSIC forum.

Looks like you figured it out...and you reminded me, I needed to add mine.
Welcome Nip! Well, Nip looks a little out of focus. Perhaps intentional <grin>
