View first unread post in thread button gone ?

[Zigster]

What happened to the "view first unread" button at the top of each thread ?
I am convinced it was there and it's been missing for a while.. any chance of re-instating it ?
It was really handy to jump to the first unread post in a thread I either participated in or took an interest in.

I have not removed anything lately?

Where was this feature exactly mate?

Hi Mick,
It was above the top post where it now says LinkBack Thread Tools Search Thread Rate This Thread Display

What skin are you using?

On Vivid it's a small round blue button next to the link. I think .

I'm using Vivid, but can't see a small round button anywhere ??
I'm sure it used to have the words "view first unread" which was a clickable link to the first unread post in whichever thread you are in.

Could someone do a small screen Grab of where it should be so I know where to look in the templates

To be honest Mick, I didn't actually take notice, just used the button, then suddenly realised it wasn't there one day
I took a quick screenshot from another forum I use, dunno if it's using the same software but it looks very similar in layout, even though the skin is completely different.

Any news ?

I remember the "view first unread" option as well, and the location was a text banner as you said.
I also use vivid, and can't find a small blue button either.

The only problem is I can't be sure it was on this forum. I'm on *******s as well, use vivid on there,
and it's definitely on there as you described. *******s is not as sophisticated as here, but a very common layout.
Are we both getting confused ? Even if we are, it's still a very useful function to have.

Are we still paranoid about this sort of thing? :grayno:

Seems pointless and silly to me.
