I understand that currently, when replying to a specific post in a thread, you can see the content of that post. I was just wondering, would it be possible to make it show the last 10 posts instead? It becomes a pain constantly paging back and forth to refer to things said in previous posts, and I figured since a lot of other forums have this feature it would be a nice thing to have.

that's a lot of resources, but if you have a url to site of an example that I can use as a reference then I can understand more what you want.

Here's a reply page on a site which uses Invision Power Board, which has this feature: http://www.bristolforum.co.uk/forum/index.php?act=Post&CODE=02&f=9&t=1901. Below the main reply section it shows the content of the previous 10 posts.

Hmm.. I think you have to be registered at the forum to view it. I'll upload a screenshot of it if that helps...

Thanks for the link to the pic.

actually it's not in the order they were posed, it's the last 10 in the opposite order so you can see the very last one at the top.

I don't need a pic, one was already supplied. Yes this is something I will be adding, but not at the moment.

Right now, I am working on our new server.
