I don't know if this is possible here, but on AdvRider there is a little downward facing arrow next to each thread. It takes you to the first new post on a thread from the last time you visited the thread.
I know ours now has the right facing arrow that goes to the last post of the thread but it is nice to have it take you to the first new one. Just wanted to see if it was possible.

I'll have to look into that one. This forum software is pretty popular and has many of the mods available to make it act like VBulletin. I just need to go search around the SMF main site to see if I can find something.

Hmmm, not sure I understand what you are asking for that we don't all ready have? If you click on "Show unread posts since last visit" and then the "New" button for whatever thread you are interested in, it takes to the FIRST unread post in that thread.

Rod, you are correct. We already have the feature. I always use the show unread posts since last visit, but the arrow on the right was what I would use to get to the end of the post. I had never tried the "new tab". Duh! Thanks for pointing it out. :)
