I searched for a while. I thought the answer would be easy to find. Did not find it.

Is there any way to order the forum posts from last to first instead of first to last? When viewing on say, an iPhone, its a pain to have to blow the screen out in order to get to the # of the last page in a multi page post to read the last forum reply.

Look for the little box next to main message icon and by putting cursor on it and selecting it it will take you to the newest message in series since you were last on board...

I also find by requesting "Traditional Site" instead of compact phone/tablet mode to be more useful.... Most times smart fones ain't....

Ah. I see that icon now. Its too bad that it's not active for every post, even ones that haven't had a recent addition. It would serve the purpose.

When I am on my iPhone, and I Google "thesamba", and go to the site, how would I know if I am getting the "Traditional Site" vs. the mobile version? I see all the functionality of the site on my iPhone, so I must me on the full blown site?

I don't think I have experienced the mobile site then, if it is in fact different than the full site.

You can also change the sort using the little box at the bottom of the page:

I don't know how fast this is on a phone though?
Feedback welcome on that.

There is no "mobile" version of the site so you are seeing the full, normal web site.

Hey, thanks EB! I never noticed it before, but did look for that. Now I see..

It would be nice if there were a global setting for this via out control panel. But this will work fine.

I find that the site works great on an iPhone. No issues and it loads fast every time. Nice to be able to catch up while riding the subway home.

Thanks again for the great site and resources it provides!

What? That was always there. Smile

Just kidding, I added that yesterday but hadn't posted yet or tried it on my phone for usability.

Let me know if that works for you when doing mobile stuff or if it's hard to click or you have any other issues.
