When viewing each topic thread, it would be nice if there was "Next Topic" and "Previous Topic" buttons to make it easier to go through a forum, topic by topic.

I have heard comments from my users that it can be a pain to have to hit "Back" and then click on the next message in the thread repeatidly to read all of the topics in a forum, especially when they are interested in scrolling through all of the new message in a forum, which many of my users do.

Should be simple and would be a great addition to WWF!

Thanks!

Is simple to add just need a place where to put it. Any ideas? and remember if it is a multiple page topic the layout will be different so all the logical places are taken up by links to the other topic pages.

Perhaps next to the "Post Reply" button. adding two buttons "Next Topic" or "Previous Topic". That way they have the buttons from the topic and bottom of each thread.

Interesting idea, I can see the complaints though coming in now from people moaning that their act first read later users are clicking the wrong button or can't find the Post Reply button.

You can't win them all :)

But I still think it would be a great asset to navigation! Hitting back each time, waiting for the page to reload, and then finding the next topic to click is extra effort that could be avoided with an easier 'forward' motion to nagivate through the threads.
