Finding a specific page in a thread

Finding a specific page in a thread

Hi,

A few times I've wanted to go back to a specific page in a thread and I am wondering if there is an easier way to do this than to click the "previous" button a bazillion times. If this isn't currently possible, I wonder if the super clever IT people at SANE might be able to do some secret magic IT stuff to make it possible???

I second that @Phoenix_Rising. It gets hard to keep going back one page at a time sometimes for 30 or more pages.

Hi @Phoenix_Rising,

If you know the number of the page, you can edit the page number in the address bar of a desktop/laptop browser. You will need to hit the 'previous page' button once to get a page number to show up in the address. Once you can see the page number at the end of the address, you can just change that to whatever you want. This is the roundabout way I do it on the odd occasions I know what page I want to go back to. May or may not be helpful, especially if you are not on a desktop or laptop.

It worked! Methinks you are a super clever IT person @Mazarita.
