When viewing a topic the page buttons appear under the posts. Is there an option to also display above the posts or perhaps show a text box which allows you to type in the page number and go directly to it?

As an example here is a link to a topic on my forum which has just been upgraded to 3.1.8. The page buttons only appear under the posts,

that means you can now add a second pager on the posts page

<YAF:Pager ID="PagerTop" runat="server" LinkedPager="Pager" UsePostBack="False" />

I'm also putting an additional breadcrumb at the bottom on the page by adding a second PageLinks control and giving it an ID PageLinksBottom. That doesn't cause any problems as far as I can tell.

  <YAF:PageLinks ID="PageLinksBottom" runat="server" />

It only happens on some threads and I can't identify a pattern other than perhaps when there are more than X (50???) pages in the thread. Another odd thing is the path in the stacktrace (C:\inetpub\wwwroot\YAFNET_3_1_8_source) is not correct for my server so I don't know where it is being picked up from.

var addControl = !(user.IsGuest && !this.PageBoardContext.IsAdmin);

That does not compile and I think it should be:

var addControl = !(user.ActiveFlags.IsGuest && !this.PageBoardContext.IsAdmin);
