    "New Posts"-->click on firstnew.gif in thread/thread starter column is bad

    Since installing vBSEO, my members have complained that when they click on "New Posts" in the navbar, then click on the little down arrow icon (firstnew.gif) next to the thread name in the "Thread / Thread Starter" column to read the message, sometimes they are transported to a random place within the thread.

    Oleg,

    Thanks for the fast reply, where can I find the vbseo_config file? is this accessible within my vbseo admin or is it a .php file located in my forum root?

    Done. But members are still reporting the same problem. They say that when the firstnew.gif icon is clicked, it doesn't go to the newest post, but to the middle of the last page.

    Are you using database marking for tracking new posts?

    If you prefer using cookie based option, you can also try setting newpost URL format as described in Thread Marking and Vbseo
