Question on New Forum

I read the 'Forum First Steps' section and it states: "To participate or read the thread, simply click on the thread title or the latest post."  How do I click on "the latest post"?  When I click on the authors name, it just brings up his bio.  I would like to be able to access the latest post directly without scrolling through all of the older posts.

If you click on the red Forums tab, it gives you a choice of forums Toy train operating and collecting (on the left) and the latest forum posted to on the right.

Are you referring to the feature the old forum had where you could click the little arrow next to the most recent poster's name and jump to their post at the end of the thread?

If so, that's not here right now, but I've asked our tech guys if that feature can be restored.

Erik, Thank you for the reply.  I never found that feature on the old forum.  I like the feature on the OGR forum where you click on the last posters name and it takes you direct to the last post.  It would be nice to have that feature here.

BTW, The views statistics are not working correctly.  Several threads, including this one, show a number of replies but 0 views.
