email alerts inconsistency

Post by SteveShaw »

Since the weekend, when I click on the link in an email notification of reply, I sometimes get directed to the very beginning of the thread instead of the message that triggered the alert. But only sometimes. It could, of course, be Dale saying to me "Read the bloody thing from the beginning, Shaw, and read it properly this time!" but I doubt it somehow. Is it just me?
"Last night, among his fellow roughs,
He jested, quaff'd and swore."

They cut me down and I leapt up high
I am the life that'll never, never die.
I'll live in you if you'll live in me -
I am the lord of the dance, said he!

I'm not sure. I never use email notifications. I'll look at the board options and see if that's addressed somewhere.

Mebbe. Notifications are working properly for me, taking me to the right post.

Once in the topic, you could always click on the
"First Unread Post" link (which I think is a new
feature).
