How do I get to the 'last post' in a thread as this seems to have been removed now?

Not quite sure I am following what you describe... selecting the link on the date of the last post should get you to the last post without scrolling, not the Recommended or Related content -- that will appear below the thread list. At least that is how I see that using the current released versions of Chrome, Firefox, and IE. If you are seeing something different, then more details would be needed to understand what to look at to figure out what needs to be sorted.

The Related/Recommended content "widget" on this site has two presentation modes -- slider and list. For the former, that "slides into view" every time you scroll towards the bottom of something (e.g. forum thread, wiki article, blog article, etc.) That's how it was configured by default, but was getting in the way, so was switched to "list presentation mode". The latter can either be put in a narrow column to one side of the application window or at the bottom of the content. Although where it should appear is subjective, the information it includes is exactly as its name indicates... related and recommended. It has been my experience over the years that static (and otherwise non-descriptive, generic) hyperlinks are most often not clicked on. Given the relevancy (and importance) of the content these things present, we are planning to keep them enabled and work on improving their presentation.
Unknown said: Seems like it is then working on other browsers- so wider testing may be needed
Just wanted to point out percentages of some of the browsers (on various OSes) used to visit Bentley Communities in 2014:
There are other ones, too, which is why those percentages do not add up to 100%, but I wanted to provide some scale of where browser use stands. This is not meant to disparage any of them, only to identify what we are looking at for prioritization. We know that more and more access will be on non-Windows, "mobile", and will look at testing on wider platforms accordingly.

That would explain why the site looks terrible on my mobile and tab! Definitely need more testing.

OK terrible perhaps is an exaggeration but with the blue/green banner filing the screen it doesn't look good.
