"Go to top" feature suggestion

[geoxena]

Hiya,

Oftentimes when reading a thread, I have wished there was a link or icon at the bottom of the page that I could click to be quickly brought all the way back up to the top.  It would be so much easier, especially with super long threads, than having to keep scrolling to get back there to the top of the page.  Most other forums I frequent have this feature - would it be possible here?  It could be to the right of the "Mark site read" button.

We used to have a "go to the top" of the page button, at the bottom of the forum pages, but sadly we lost it in a big forum software upgrade in September 2022, this was the news about that at the time here.

Unfortunately we can only have features that are provided by the forum software or someone makes a plug in we can use to add it. This disappeared after this update 😞 

 

Often browsers have ways of going to the top and bottom of a page. On Windows desktop devices, this is the Home key or End key for the bottom, sometimes Ctrl + those if you are in a text field. On Mac this is CMD and up and down keys. Many mobile device apps have this built in and a button appears at the bottom of pages. Also if you touch the top of the screen on some mobile browsers, it will take you to the top. Have a look online about the feature in your preferred browser, it usually has it's own function these days.
