Default Link "button" to go back to the "main page" in a forum

The page I'm referring to as the "main page" is the page that lists all the thread titles within a forum or sub forum.

The reason I request this "button" is to eliminate having to click the back arrow several times after reading a long thread which may have several pages.

Is it possible to add this feature to every page so going back to the main page of a forum is easier? Thank you to TOTV Team for your consideration..

Sometimes do have to hit the back button 4 to 5 times so that would be easier

In my browser - right click on back arrow gives drop down list of previous pages to select main page.

Just tried it. I see it in the drop down but it does not work when I click on it.

The above is a screen-grab of my monitor, edited with MS Paint to show where to click to get to the previous list of threads.

OBB.....never thought of using that link. That works! Thanks.

PS.....I don't have any idea how to post a screen shot like you did. I don't know how to post a picture on this site.

I received a private message asking me for more information about my request. For some reason, I had difficulty answering your private message so I will answer here.......

I am cancelling my suggestion. There already is a link on the pages which address my suggestion. Please see post #6 by Orange Blossom Baby in this thread to see which link I am referring to.
Thank you.
