Hi,
I have the following personal settings:
Well, now I not logged in, and long threads are splitted to pages:
Now I will press Sign In link, and all messages disappeared (because now less amount of pages required):
Please fix it if possible.
Andrey.

Hi Andrey,
Thank you for your report. I do agree you should go to page 1 when you log in. I will report this issue to our forum vendor.

I do see where your problem is, but I don't agree that it should automatically go to page 1.
When you sign in, you want it to log you in, but otherwise keep you at the same page you are now. I don't want to lose my page just because I logged in.
Well the issue is that when you are not logged in, page 3 exists. When you log in, page 3 no longer exists because your personal settings regroup the number of posts per page.
So the real fix is that when you log in, it should basically take you to the page that shows the same posts you are looking at now. That could be a little tricky because a post may no longer be the top message on a page, or the 10 you are seeing not logged in on page 3 may wind up split between pages 1 and 2. So in that case, should page 1 be shown or page 2? It all depends on what page you are on and how your threads/page number defers from the default.
