Topic Title links to First Unread Post

[BN_IT_Support]

Simple plugin that changes the behaviour of a forum topic title link so that it goes to the first unread post rather than the first post in the topic. At the moment this is a global change but it could be done on a per-user basis if there is sufficient interest.

Doesn't seem to work on the latest version?

[BN_IT_Support]

Should be okay on the variants of 4.1.13.  What's not working?

[marklcfc]

Apoligies, seems to be an error in my skin somewhere as it works on default

[BN_IT_Support]

No problem.  Note (to self!) I have yet to check it with this which may affect 4.1.14

Perfect works on last version 4.1.14. Thank you!

I would love to have this option, as only some of my members would like this function and I don’t want to enable it for the entire forum.

Ignore this, I was mistaken.

It could be made with a setting in admin that enables or disables a user setting which activates the ability for a members to control it them self in their settings. Could be a nice feature!

I'll have another think about it. I'm not convinced that this plugin isn't more trouble than it's worth though.

[marklcfc]

Does this work in 4.2?

[BN_IT_Support]

Don't know, haven't tried it yet.  If it doesn't then I would think it a fairly easy fix.

[marklcfc]

Do you know if this works in 4.2 yet

[BN_IT_Support]

I'm upgrading tomorrow so I'll let you know.

[BN_IT_Support]

No is the answer - I'll have a look at it later.

Any news?

[BN_IT_Support]

Apologies, new version should be available now.

Works on unread topics (I am on 4.2.1 and the latest version of your plugin), but not on already read ones.
Only goes to first post, if topic is already read, regardless of setting in ACP.

Maybe you could have a look?

[surinp3]

Aha...

If you are on a stream-page with already read topics, the unread ones do not link to the last post.
That would be the correct description of my issue.

Maybe a bug?

[BN_IT_Support]

Are you sure?!  It's working okay for me here.

Edit: Okay this plugin isn't doing anything to steams only forum topic listings.  There is a built-in option under the activity stream filters to determine how they behave.

See my post above here.
I corrected my issue description.

It is on the stream pages the read topics don´t link to the last post.
I use a 24h stream on my community (where all topics from the last 24h are showing, read and unread) and thats where the issue is for me. On the already read topics.

[BN_IT_Support]

Yes I saw - we cross-posted.  As I said the plugin isn't making any changes to activity streams but you should be able to set that using the built-in setting.

Got it... I was so sure that behaviour was due to your plugin (even in the streams), but I now see your plugin works differently.

Thanks for clearing it up.

Works great although not on mobile view unless I'm being silly.
