Is there a way to make tables in the software? On the AO the best you could do was the ā€œcodeā€ tag which made it a bit easier to control the spacing. It would be nice to actually be able to make a table though. ---

| Query/Responce Code | User | Text of query/response | | --- | --- | --- | | Q | @soyleche | Is there a way to make tables in the software? | | A | @thetermguy | Sure. Just add a pipe character at the end of each cell as well as the beginning of each row. And, the second row should be dashes, seperated by pipe signs. The number of dashes defines the width of each column. | Source: [Adding a table to your post using markdown - Using Discourse - Discourse Meta](https://meta.discourse.org/t/create-a-table-using-markdown-on-your-discourse-forum/66544) ---

I think you need to go from careers to one of the two subfora within careers. You picked ā€œgeneralā€. ---

If Iā€™m reading a post and want to see what post they were responding to (if it wasnā€™t quoted), I can click the little icon thing and go to the post - which is great and helpful. Is there a way to easily jump back to where I was in the thread? Iā€™ve just been scrolling down and finding it, but if there is a link or something I donā€™t know about that would be nice. The ā€œbackā€ button on the browser takes me out of the thread entirely and back to the list of threads. ---

Back on the AO when I clicked a link it would open in a new tab/window. Here, when I click a link it does not open in a _new_ tab. Rather, it opens over the existing tab. Is there a personal setting somewhere that affects this or am I relegated to trying to remember to right click on links? ---

There are some settings in preferences/interface that will help with that. ---

Finally, on the LLHS of his post is ā€œ1 Reply [upside down caret]ā€. Clicking on that, as before, immediately displays my post underneath hisā€¦then, I can click on the down arrow to get back from whence I came. Maybe I have some special setting set up especially set for me. ---

That seems to be working okay on the computer. The arrow doesnā€™t show up (at least, not that Iā€™ve noticed) on the phone - just the icon and it takes you to the post instead of recreating it above the post Iā€™m looking at. The ā€œreplyā€ thing might help there though. Thanks ---

I have a dumb question and donā€™t want to make a new thread just to ask it. If youā€™re in a long-ass thread that you havenā€™t read before, is there a way to skip to the bottom? Thus far, Iā€™ve only been able to scroll and scroll and scroll. ---

Yes. If you click on the box with the post number youā€™re on, it brings up a little screen and thereā€™s a ā€œjump toā€ button. You can put in the post number you want to go to. ---
