XF 2.3 Possible to jump to last read message once clicked to a thread in the thread list?

Currently it's either the first message or the last message depending what you click on the thread list.

But can I make clicking the thread title to view the last viewed (that I viewed) message in a thread?

This is default behaviour (not last viewed but first unread after last viewed) unless your read marking lifetime data has expired at which point it defaults to the first post.

I liked your message and then returned to the thread list. Then I refreshed the thread list page. Clicked on the thread title and I saw the following screen. It's not jumped to the last viewed message. There's no last unread message in this situation.

Ahhhh.

When you click on the timestamp under the thread this takes you to the last post.

Note the /latest appendage to the URL.

If you're familiar with template edits you can modify the thread_list template to always point to /latest. I would be more specific but I'm on mobile and don't have access.

Yes it's the way to go to the last post of the thread. But it's not necessarily my last unread post.

It's useful to jump to the last unread post in a busy thread.

If there are unread posts, the last post of the thread is also the last unread post (=newest unread post).

If there are unread posts (that are not older than the cutoff) and you want to go to the first unread post (=oldest unread post) just click the thread title.
