I set up a Discourse new forum and both me and my co-admins love it. There’s a thing, anyway: some of them aren’t really convinced by the fact that when a user clicks on a thread, the view automatically scrolls to the last unread message. I’m honestly cool with that (who wants to read the first message over and over again? just take me to the new ones!), but yeah… let’s say we still don’t have an agreement
So, back to the topic: can the feature be disabled, or it’s just the way it works?
Note that, as a user, this is one of many quality of life things that makes interacting on a discourse powered forum smooth.
Also: on longer topics with infini-scroll, it’s pretty much essential. I don’t have the crutch of manually binary-searching through the pages until I roughly find where I left off.
If I ended up needing to interact on a forum where someone had managed to turn this off, I’d have (Public!) Words for the site admin.
Well… they still don’t manage to build a strong objection. It’s just “I liked the old ways”. That’s why I think the easiest way is to convince them that the Discourse way is better. Not just because it’s Discourse, of course, but because it makes sense indeed.
Per quanto ne so, non esiste ancora una soluzione. Non abbiamo in programma di crearne una perché la funzionalità ha senso. Hai un motivo convincente per cui vorresti disabilitarla?
Non riesco a immaginare perché qualcuno vorrebbe disabilitarlo a meno che non abbia argomenti molto brevi. Inoltre, lo scroller di avanzamento/timeline alla destra di un argomento è fantastico. Per risalire in cima, un clic sull’intestazione dell’argomento (titolo) porta l’utente all’OP.
