It’s still a half-backed solution, unfortunately, because it doesn’t work for threads with no new posts. For example, to make this post I had to find this thread, and the only way to take you to the last post is to click that tiny arrow on the right. It’s an awfully small target. Pretty frustrating that while people behind pdpBB are, I’m sure, good programmers, they are abysmal at GUI design and have never heard of Fitts’ law.
Oh, well.
