Is there any way of returning TO THE PAGE OF POSTINGS when you post a reply?
I have my options set to go back to the listings but it always takes me back to P1, not the page I strted from! Then, if I can't remember the correct page, I have to trawl.

Hit back on your browser a couple of times then refresh to update where you posted reply

Try clicking on the little down arrow to the right of the back browse arrow (top left of the screen), and click on British Expat Forum - Australia. Saves having to go back, then back, then back etc. If your connection is a little slower it's a bit of a time saver.

Yes, that's the way I have to do it - but it didn't used to be like that! Until a few months ago, after posting a reply, I was returned directly to the page of listings from which I started. Something has changed, and I don't know what! There is nothing apparent in the options which allows either reversion.

Yep, as I thought - it does do that
I've just replied to your post and it took me back to the post, with my reply added.

Redirect After Posting
After posting you can choose to be redirected to the main thread listing or to the actual post you just made.
[Show me the post I just made] or [Take me back to list of threads]
mine is ticked as [Show me the post I just made], but it doesn't, it takes me back to page 1 of the list of threads !!
I am sure it used to take me back to the post, but not sure how long ago that was....

Odd. Just checked mine and it is also ticked for 'show me post I just made', and it does.
Wonder how long it'll be till this post gets moved to site feedback

It did the same thing, doesn't matter which option I have ticked !!
Maybe it's because I use Mozilla instead of IE as my browser.
