Is there a way within Xenforo to mark a thread as read? I really liked that feature of the old forum system, as it made it very easy to see when there was new material in a given thread.
http://urbantoronto.ca/forum/watched/threadsAlso related, the ability to see unread threads.
The "unread threads" search along with "mark all forums as read" was the best ways of reading this forum. Made it very quick and easy to scan the forum for new activity (updated threads, new threads, etc.). When done for that session, just mark as read...then the next time I came back it only showed me new stuff.
A couple of problems I seem to be am having with the new Xenforo system: The 'Go To First Unread' does not seem to work consistently - sometimes goes to other than the first unread post. Have to scroll back in the thread to see if there are other posts which I may have missed. Does not happen consistently, but more than just once in a while.
Secondly - coordination between the Last Message information in the forum thread summary page and the actual most recent postings sometimes appears to break down - especially, but not always, when the most recent post on the summary page is from a member who I have flagged to Ignore. I know in one case I posted a response to what was the most recent comment in a thread, only to find that Craig had also responded with a comment - time stamped earlier than mine, but which was not showing when I initially viewed the thread.
Anyone else having these problems - any expectation on when they might be resolved?
Thanks,
Andrew
