Click on "My Home" then "General Settings" (or click on this link: https://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/profile.php?do=editoptions ) then scroll down to "Miscellaneous Settings" change the setting from "Tractor" to "TractorByte2015"
The current skin is set to take you to the first unread post, as I understand it, it is a holdover from the original forum software.

I knew it had to be something in the settings.
Thanks a bunch man, appreciate it. :thumbsup:

Glad to help. As I recall, there are couple sub forums where that skin does not work correctly, but it should work for most of them.

If you think about it, you joined on November 14th, 2018.

Any thread you clicked on would probably take you to any posts that you haven't read since the first time you were here, not since the beginning of TBN since it was created, something like what, 18-19 years ago?

It makes perfect sense not to send new people back almost 20 years in time.

So welcome to TBN in real time. :rolleyes:

I had my phone browser set to full site and did this "TractorByte2015" thing. It screwed up the phone view something fierce. On top of that I couldn't get back to settings on the phone to change it back. About to change my setting back to "tractor" using my PC. Guess I have learned to live with the way it works so I may as well stick with that.

I agree with the OP it isn't typical operation compared to most other forums.

I am on the "tractor" skin as well. Don't have any problems. I'm primarily on an iPad and PC. Don't use the phone for TBN.

As I understand it, there is a new forum software in the works and as such, they haven't updated the TractorByte2015 skin since they added HTTPS to this site.

I am really aggravated with myself for trying the TractorByte2015 skin on my phone. Now I can't get it back the way it was for anything. I changed my forum preference back to the tractor skin on my PC and cleared my cookies on my phone and logged back in. It allowed me to select full site but still doesn't display as it did which was virtually the same as seen on my PC before I changed it.

Yeah well, I respectfully disagree. I don’t think a thread with 40 pages about Tier IV emissions goes back 20 yrs.
when I click on it, I shouldn’t start reading page 36. :rolleyes:

And if I open a book for the first time I don’t turn to page 199. I start at the front.

No matter, I can work around it but would like to make it right in my simple punkinhead, be it a setting or whatever.

And whatever page I致e landed on since visiting your site I’ve thoroughly enjoyed all the info and members input.
Hopefully I’ll be able to contribute some in the future rather that ***** about the format. :D
