Forum jump defaults to "empty" / blank? (Fixed for all but IOS8)

Forum jump selection at the bottom of the page used to default to the forum you were currently reading, and that was useful to return back to the forum's first page updating the threads that you had already visited.

Today I'm noticing that it's now defaulting to an empty selection, so you have to first scroll through the list to the current forum to continue to use that feature as I've been using it.

Any chance they can fix this?

Thanks,
David

And if you didn't notice the empty forum jump & still clicked go, you get this message:

"Invalid Forum specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the administrator

If you received this message immediately after posting a new thread, there's a good chance your message was flagged as spam and will be looked at by our moderator team."


I noticed it last night on my Kindle Fire HD, but it's also happening today with my laptop. As oliver2002 notes, very annoying indeed!

Cheers.

I noticed it yesterday. Very frustrating. Hopefully it is fixed soon.

Tech is on it. This new issue is due to a fix implemented for those who couldn't use the jump at all. I'm sure they will sort it out.

There is still an iOS 8 issue for those using Apple.

-Until IOS8 releases an update, this won't be 100% fixed
-IF you have an IOS8 device, now the forumjump works, but it will not default to the value of the forum you are in
-All other devices and desktop are back to 100% normal behavior with default saving the location
