| I don't know if it's in anyway relevant, but I'm currently using IE (8, on XP) to browse the forums, and every so often it's doing the "go to the top of the last page instead of the first unread post" thing. |

Thoughts: I like it. I like having the avatars back on the mobile view.
Am I imagining it, or is clicking 'next unread' now swapped with clicking the topic title?
And echoing Praisebot, page numbers at the bottom of the page, and next and previous as well, natch. |

Just to confuse matters, Tapatalk has had an update this morning and scroll-to-first-unread seems to work now. PMs and searching work too, unlike Forum Runner.
PMs even have a reply all button! |

Speaking of Tapatalk, I love how the response to Kalmar's question about jumping to the latest unread post on their forum was (paraphrased) “This is a VB-only feature. Get PHPBB to implement it, and we'll look at adding it in.”
