A Little Trick Instead of Scrolling Down

Cakers3 — Mon, 25 Jul 2022 13:51:09 GMT

This may have been posted but instead of having to scroll all the way down go to the upper left and click on "Skip to Footer".

This will bring you down to the bottom where you can get into the forum. All it takes is a 2 or 3 scroll and you will be able to find the foum you want.

Now you will have to do this whenever you go to any forum or post but it saves having to constantly scroll through that whole page.

It just saves a little time and less frustration.

Also sometimes once I'm logged in I do not have to use the Skip to Footer but only if I am already in a thread. It's a roll of the dice when I have to use that feature.

Either way you will see all the forums listed and it's just a quicker way to get to post.

Thanks for this! But, now that you've found it, the-powers-that-be will probably remove "skip to footer," quickly.

@PINKdogWOOD Also you do not have to scroll back up to get to the Skip to Footer feature.

When you are at the bottom you should see on the bottom right "Back to Top" feature to get you back up fast.

@Cakers3 I'm sorry, I can seem to find 'skip to footer' in my upper left corner or anywhere. Can you be more specific or maybe it's just not available to me...bummer.

@sarahpanda At the top of the page you should see four "skips".

Skip to Main Navigation

Skip to Main Navigation (repeated)

Skip to Main Function

Skip to Footer

At the very top left before you start to see all the forums etc. listed in the middle of the page.

They stand alone, at least on my computer. Then you start to see the rest of the mess.

I'd do a screen shot but I do not know how!! Maybe somebody else can help with that.

I tried to do this but I just don't see any of the "skips". At the top of my page I see...."Menu" at the very top left and nothing drops down, then "watch" and nothing happens if I try to click it, next there is "recently on air", "watch Live", "Q", "Shop" with all of the crazy titles under that, next "watch", "my account" "search" "cart " all the way on the right.

So for now I am scrolling.........

It could be the various devices everyone uses.

I am on my laptop.

@haddon9 My 'view' is like yours, no options that say anything about 'skip'..bummer.

My " skip to footer" is on lower left corner, not in the upper corner.

@mspemberley Interesting.

I posted upthread that it must be the various devices posters use-some do not see the "skips" at all.

It works for me so I thought I would share.

I'm sorry not everyone has it.

I have had no problems with my laptop, Windows 10, Chrome Browser, but even using the trick with "The Footer" I cant log into the Forums using my Android phone at all.. Glad my laptop still works.....The Edge Browser also works with my laptop to get into the Forums...

Re: A Little Trick Instead of Scrolling Down

I agree that access to the "trick" depends on the device and browser being used. I don't see that on my screen

@Spurt I only use my laptop but just for kicks and giggles tried my Android and couldn't find the "Footer" either. I didn't sign in on it-just looked.

I also use Windows 10 and Chrome on my laptop and that is the only device I use.

For me only the Forums are screwed up and I will NOT adjust to this abnormal way to function...this is such an amateur website with poor-quality IT support. There is ALWAYS some kind of technology problem on this site and it is due to poor IT support.

@kelsey17 Indeed control...I have never used Facebook and have no intention of ever using Facebook...QVC needs to get some QUALITY into this website. But then, quality is sorely lacking everywhere within QVC....
