Change it to page 20 and hit "Enter" and go to messages from a few days ago.

Change it to page 500 and hit "Enter" and go to messages from April of last year.
Hey, it works! I, too, am new and have been trying to "catch up" with past posts. I was trying to keep track of where I was on a particular forum and clicking through one page at a time until I reached the spot at whcih I had stopped - according to the date, not the page number, since the page numbers change just about every day.

Thanks so much for sharing this nformation :lol:
