This extension controls the position (scroll/"page") at which a discussion is opened when selected in the discussion list.

This is done through a new preference that controls when a discussion should be "opened at last read post":

- Always (Flarum built-in default)

- Only when there are unread posts

- Never = Always open discussion at the top

You can configure a global default in the admin panel and users can change it via their preferences.

The optional "Prompt" setting is experimental.

It shows a message in the discussion allowing the user to change their preference on the first visit.

Unfortunately the message is very long, so it's not very user-friendly.

## Installation

    composer require clarkwinkelmann/flarum-ext-discussion-open-position

## Support

This extension is under **minimal maintenance**.

It was developed for a client and released as open-source for the benefit of the community.

I might publish simple bugfixes or compatibility updates for free.

You can [contact me](https://clarkwinkelmann.com/flarum) to sponsor additional features or updates.

Support is offered on a "best effort" basis through the Flarum community thread.
