Direct Link from Email?
I was just wondering if I was doing something wrong.

When ever I get notified that there has been a response to one of the threads on the forum and I click on the link. Instead of going directly to the specific message that the link was attached to, I am taken to the first message in the group. I then have to plough through all the messages until I arrive at the message that sent the link in the first place. This is not such a chore if there aren't many messages in that particular thread, but if for example it is the Friday Challenge, I have to keep going through each page until I arrive at the message I clicked on. Is there not a way whereby, when I click on the message link in the email, I can be taken directly to that message?

Many thanks

Hmm. Not sure there is. The developer of this forum software hasn't released any updates for two years now, and I think he's lost interest. I'm afraid you may be stuck with this method.

Still, it gives you the chance to admire all those wonderful Friday Challenge entries again, right?

Mark, if you think about it, it does say 'subscribe to this topic', not message.
cheers

Yes thanks guys. Not having a moan... as such .. just making sure I wasn't missing a trick and being a plonker! And yes, it does give me the opportunity to view the FC's time after time, after time, so it can be really rubbed in how much I don't know!!

Only joking of course, the work is absolutely inspirational, and I feel privileged to be able to share in the wealth of knowledge and expertise that is on this forum.

Thanks again
