Last Read post on a thread
 

I like the new format, but have one question. Is it possible to change a setting so that you are taken automatically to the last read posting, as used to be in the old forum? I see that there is a button( ? ) which you can click on to to that, but it would be easier if we were directed to the last read post autiomatically. Thanks.

Hi John,

Actually - it's the same as on the old forum where the "time-out" on the Cookie will redirect you to the newest post.? I can shorten that on this server (as the server resides a whopping 3 feet from where I am typing this ;) ).. But, before I do - what are you using for a browser and do you have a proxy server holding your cookies?

Best to you!

John

I'm using MSN which I believe is powered by IE. Not sure about cookies. Sorry to be such a computer dufus (doophus?)

BTW, you might be interested in a video of my son-in-law's 996T which has finally gotten running after about 2 years of build delays.

Hey John!

No problem! Yep - I can fix that time-out using no-cache headers, which I'll set up in a minute... BTW..???

How the heck did you know I was a Porsche geek??!! ;)

For the rest - yep - in this forum - you can EMBED videos in line, as I hacked the forum code to allow it.. Sort of like this (just press the play button - and the video will play in-line) ;)



Best to you

And I just watched the embedded video again....

OHH MYYY!!!

I love Porsches..!!!!!!

Also - your son-in-law is absolutely invited to come to my house.. I have 3 porsches and drive many of the tracks in NE...

Damn great vid John! Thanks for sharing!

John

As well....

The cookie on your end will expire in 300 seconds, so any thread you don't re-visit in that time frame - all the new "posts" will appear as "new" and your browser should go directly to those, OK?

Best to you..!

John

John - Still not working as described. Anything I should be doing on my end? Thanks

John - Still not being directed to the first new post. Will tell my son-in-law about your offer. He owns a premium car shipping company, and often is in the Northeast. He grew up on Mass.
