Boy_Wonder ,

Thread summary doesn't have pages.  It will show the last page in the summary.

This is what's not happening - let me throw in a screenshot to illustrate

See the difference?

Boy_Wonder ,

Issue is because you are using custom buttons / links, so ProBoards has no way to know which page summary to show, so it shows the first page as default.

When you click on the reply button in this thread, ProBoards does some stuff behind the scenes.  You would need to mimic that so the correct page summary works for you. 

In theory you should be able to add the class reply-button to your link / button and that may solve it.

Yep - that's working now! Thank you!

Peter I have a problem with the code.
I tried to design the code to work for posts in a thread on the actual post list, rather than the summary list. It works well, but I realized it kept breaking the html for either the last page or the first page in the pagination. Maybe you can tell me if something is wrong with my code?

<script>
jQuery.fn.reverse = [].reverse;
$(".container.posts table tr").reverse().each(function(){
$(this).appendTo($(this).parent());
});
</script>

bluecargo1,

Would need to see it in action, but you are using it for something it's not really designed for.  I would suggest asking for a new script to help with what you want to achieve

Sure, I'll ask in the coding help board. Peter Thanks for the reply.

Hey Peter I use this on a roleplay site I am admin of, we are using a custom theme we found on the library that has custom classes and layout for everything. I have a roleplay thread I moderate that has 2 pages. I normally quote my previous post when there are battles to save time, however, when quoting posts from page 2 I am getting posts from page 1 in the summary instead which is a little annoying when you want to know what attack the person is using in their last post, I was wondering how I would fix this?

The create thread button works fine, it shows the page 2 summary, it just the quote button isn't.

Anyone else able to help?

I just came on to say thanks for this! It's so incredibly useful. ^^

(I hope somebody will find a solution for you, Blazebrem.)
