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.

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.

I'd like it to take you back to the thread you actually replied to, so you can see if any other posts have appeared since you began your reply. I am sure I miss some posts because of that.

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.

You made me check my options, and it says:

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 does seem a bit hit and miss. Have you tried the 'Hybrid' view option? It shows a tree at the top of the page that you can scroll through to find where you want to get back to.

I've now changed mine to [Take me back to list of threads].

I wonder where I will end up after I hit submit this time

Sorry it took so long to get back.............. ( I did consider saying i've just got back from Perth )

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.
