    Hi ,just wondering if it's possible to set the page top of a forum ,to the first unstickied thread in a forum ?

    I.E. If say I go onto the photography forum ,I don't have to scroll through all the stickies to get to the first unstickied thread.
    I'm not into the tech side ,but I thought maybe an option to add a marker like this would be handy.

    Anyways ,thanks for reading.
    Slan.

    Stickied threads are there for a reason, they shouldn't be ignored.

    I know what you mean, and understand where it would be useful, but it's not really feasible.

    It might be better having a friendly conversation with the moderators about the stickies, there might be a way to reduce the number of them/consolidate them. I was always open to such discourse with users when I was moderating. There's a fine line between stickies being useful for newbies and being an inhibitor to regulars.

    Thanks cult ,it doesn't bother me at all really.It's just I thought it would be handy to have the option in user settings.
    Appreciate the response:)


    @Aidan

    I do read stickies and only suggested it for handiness sake. Once the forum is loaded ,there wouldn't be a bother scrolling up. It would only be a pageloading marker or whatever ,doesn't matter now anyways.:)

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
