Is there any way that the buttons at the bottom of forum threads could come back? The ones that lead you back to your watchlist and adding and dropping worked much better when available at both ends of the page and not having them there means you have to scroll back up to leave, which when contrasted with how convenient it was before is very irritating. It's no big deal I know and there's a lot of more serious problems to fix but I'd really appreciate giving it some thought!

Seconded. In fact, there's not enough secondings in the world.

Also, each forum needs a button to return to the forum home (though it's kind of mitigated by the presence of the huge toolbar).

Wow, I was thinking of making a post on this exact issue. And yeah, having certain forum nav buttons on the top and bottom gets my vote.

Supported. I do like the new layout overall though.

I'm for this. I currently get a Damn You, Muscle Memory! whenever I scroll to the bottom to return to the thread list.

The thread watchlist link will be coming back to the bottom of thread pages in the next day or few; I'm assuming that a link back to the forum will also be included.

Thanks for keeping us posted, Willbyr, on both this and other issues.

Anything else that needed to come back to the bottom of thread pages?

The Stalk-O-Matic (Find Posts By Troper bar)? Well actually, I don't mind it only being on the Watchlist page, as long as it's working, but yeah. Easier if it's also on the thread page thing; that way if I'm searching somebody who's on the page I'm on, I can just scroll up to make sure I have his name right.

On second thought, having the Find Post By Troper bar at the bottom of each thread page like before would be nice. :| Also, I'm not sure what it's doing on the Add Post page.

I, personally, would like it if the "Drop Thread from Watchlist" button and the "View Thread Watchlist" button were not right next to each other.

Any chance the Stalk-O-Matic and Thread Title searches could come back to the thread pages (y'know, like the page you're on right now, that kind of page)?
