Topics with multiple pages
I want to raise an issue that has been discussed before and one that probably has...
Firstly, using UBB software, is there a way that links to subpages can be placed on the main page in each forum? I.e., where a 'Buzz' topic has 3 pages, can there be individual links to page 1, 2 and 3 from the Buzz menu?
Secondly, when you post a new reply to a multiple page thread (or edit an existing post), you are automatically returned to page 1 of that thread. This is annoying and illogical - can anything be done?

I may be able to help with one of your questions, james.
To set a link to a particular page of a milti-page posting, copy the URL from that page. It should have a number for the particular page at the ending of the posting number. For example, the below link sends you to the Buzz (Forum 1), posting (topic) 367, page 3:
http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/Forum.../001367-3.html
As to the other question, that involves a software adjustment we can't do ourselves - would have to be done (if it can be done) at WebFlyer.
