this would be my number 1 request, go to the first unread post without browsing through the whole tread to find out where I stoped last time. This is quite common within other forums wgich frequently visit (e.g. avsforum)
This would be a much better user expirience! I hope this can be implemented with the current software.

What I am missing on Beoworld:
You can not mark what you have read on the forum....... not handy..
There is no name of a person who start a topic, only the last one that reply..... not handy..
The are no old B&O movie's (and I do not mean links) on the site, the old beoworld had it, was nice to see though...
To make the photosection open/free for everyone, not only payed members. Members will not pay to add only a picture on the photosection.... and if you only can add..... lets say....100 ore 200kB for one picture.... there never can be a problem for space and...money. So I am missing free adding on the photo section.
5 ore 3 prices a month on the price redraw, so there can be money saved for better things, lets say...... sale/wanted section for free.
There are more things on my list, but I start with these
Posts you have not read in the upper right corner?
The problem with the photo section and this particular forum software is the access. At present, to post pictures requires you to have access to the control panel and this allows access to the workings of the site. Thus a few mistaken button pushes, and the site can crash. We are working on this - there is a meeting at the end of the week! There is also of course, the matter of spam posting and undesirable images being put on. This site is slightly more at risk than before due to its popularity and is now a target for spammers. this is also the reason that some will have noticed that their posts need moderating - the automatic spam filters have to be set quite high.
I am sure a solution will be found!
My B&O Icons:
As you know I had this job (adding photo's, working on the photo section) from start, and I have been pushing all the buttons I have found, starting from day one...... and look, the site is not crashed...so there can not be a crash if you press the wrong button.

On that note - and sorry for hijacking the thread slightly- has anyone else had the site address hijacked from time to time to ***.Webfile.***.
Is this happening at the server end or is it just me/my browser? I'm very careful with pop-up blockers, adware filters etc but it does happen on occasions. Has anyone else had it??
No - I use Firefox on a Mac though.
