I Have An Idea For A/b

[trt]

Hi Ed,

When you have answered and Subscribed to a thread, I think that in the list of Subscribed on the right side of that post when you see another person has answered, it should go straight to your answer, instead of having to click next, or have to scroll down to find it.

Especially if there are lots of answers.

So you mean when you click on a subscribed thread link, you shuld jump to your last answer?

What if you haven't answered?

Or do you mean the last answer on the thread, whoever it might be?

[trt]

## What if you haven't answered? ##

Ed,
You wouldn't have it in your Subscribed Thread if you haven't answered, but if you have, go to your last answer.

But if you subscribe to a question that you may not have answered, it should go to the start.

Please don't distract them from working on the switching off of the e-mails !

I often have a subscribed thread that I haven't answered trt.

OG, whats that about?

Meaning what Ladybird, in a nice way?

[AB Editor]

TRT, you "autosubscribe" to questions you answer - but not everyone wants this. You can edit it in the settings.

Ladybirder sometimes clicks the "subscribe" button on the question to add themselves.

I like the idea by the way, I'm just working out what cases it might not apply to.

trt. If you subscribe in order to get the block on the left hand side with the link in it, then you also get an e-mail telling you whenever a further post has been made. It blocks up the e-mail inbox and unfortunately isn't configurable to only have the screen link and no e-mail.

O_G, my AB emails go straight to the bin.
*sorry, ABed*

Easy to set up so your inbox isn't clogged up and you can subscribe to threads willy nilly.

I would LOVE threads to open at the last post I read.

i might subscribe to a thread if i was interested in knowing the answers as well as the OP

[Old_Geezer]

:-)

I seem to recall we being asked not to set AB as spam; at some time in the past.

[hc4361]

It's not set as spam, it is filtered to go to the bin, not the spam folder

[trt]

I didn't know there was an option to receive e-mails of answers, not that I would want one.

[hc4361]

If you subscribe to a thread you automatically get emails telling you about updates to that thread, trt.

Maybe you don't use your AB registered email address

I have subscribed to 100s of post hc, had a look at my profile and cant see any e-mail address.

[sir.prize]

trt - click on 'My Profile' then click on 'Edit My Profile' = your email address is there

What cases Ed, most are just question, or advice, sorry just asking?
