Members wanting the (showthread) 'Go' button back?

I never used it myself, but our members use it to jump back to the forum that the thread is on.
Now that the forumjump has changed, the 'Go' button has been removed.

So, to create a replacement button that jumps back to the forum the current thread is in:

In the SHOWTHREAD template, find
<div id="pagination_bottom" class="pagination_bottom">
<vb:if condition="$show['pagenav']">
{vb:raw pagenav}
</vb:if>
{vb:raw forumjump}
</div>
</div>


and replace with:

<a href="{vb:link forum, {vb:raw thread}, null, 'forumid', 'forumtitle'}" class="button" style="float:{vb:stylevar right}; font-size:11px; margin:10px;"><b>{vb:rawphrase go}</b> Back to forum</a>

<div id="pagination_bottom" class="pagination_bottom">
<vb:if condition="$show['pagenav']">
{vb:raw pagenav}
</vb:if>
{vb:raw forumjump}
</div>
</div>

Brilliant stuff. Been looking to sort this out for ages. I installed it, but made a few changes to it to make it look a little smarter:

Same template, just put it here instead:

<div id="pagination_bottom" class="pagination_bottom">
<vb:if condition="$show['pagenav']">
{vb:raw pagenav}
</vb:if>
{vb:raw forumjump}
</div>
</div>

<a href="{vb:link forum, {vb:raw thread}, null, 'forumid', 'forumtitle'}" class="button" style="float:{vb:stylevar right}; font-size:11px; margin-bottom:5px; padding:3.33333px 6.66667px;"><b>{vb:rawphrase go}</b> back to forum</a>
