I am up to page 51 in beginning woodworking, but if I close the page and go back in, I am at page 1. If I put 51 in the 'go to' box, it just sits there, and I have to scroll through every page to get to 51 again. Am I doing it wrong?

Thanks

Bob, JPG is on to something there, I just tried the "jump to page" function and it worked for me. using the subsilver2 board style :)

There are four different board styles available on the Shopsmith Forum, To change your board style preference,

Click User Control Panel - Board Preferences - open the drop down menu under My board style and choose prosilver or subsilver2, jump to page works in either of them, shopsmith and shopsmith1 not so much, then click submit at the bottom of the page,

Another trick is to set your browser to "open links in new tabs instead of new windows"

When you want to read a thread click on it with the mouse wheel instead of left clicking it, that will open it in a new tab, and leave your place in the directory on the original tab untouched. :cool:
I use shopsmith and it works.
I use shopsmith1 and it does not work.

5 pages at a time but then it goes to 2 at a time - that is what I have been doing but to go to page 60 takes a lot of clicks (time away from the shop..... :)

Are there really 300-page threads? :eek: I'm new to this forum and so far I haven't seen a thread with more than just few pages
