Is it possible for the newest messages in a particular topic to be at the top and the oldest messages at the bottom? this makes it much easier to read - especially where topics are getting two or three pages long.

Anyone have any ideas?

Brilliant site by the way

Sorry to crash this thread - I really want to start a new topic but cannot find any New Topic button anywhere! Please could someone help me? I've also checked the Help file and searched for 'New Topic' but can't find any answers.
Many thanks in advance.

Hi C - you need to go to the forum first - in the case of this topic, you would click on "Off topic and general chat" that you see at the top.

Once you're at the forum page, you'll see a b it at the bottom where you can start a new thread - just give it a title and start typing in the box. Good luck!

Hi Bevy - some of us have already suggested this to Times Health Club. I think they have their hands full trying to sort out the real bugs in the system, so this little improvement is probably way down the list of priorities.

One tip if you're looking at the list of topics, you'll see little numbers after the title - these indicate how many pages of posts there are (no numbers = only one page). Instead of clicking on the topic title, click on the last number and it will take you straight to the most recent page, where you can scroll down to the latest message.

Thanks so much Fiona! I was looking for some kind of button and overlooked it. I think my eyes which were scanning the forums assumed that that section was for answering to the previous post. Usually you don't have to go into a thread into to start a new topic, but you start one from the forum overview instead.
