Unread posts

Post by Stratts » Sat Nov 22, 2014 9:41 am

im not sure how possible this is on this forum, but on some other forums I frequent there is an Unread Posts button which I find really useful for catching up on things I've missed.

I know there is a New Posts option at the top, but this seems limited to one page or a defined period of time, and I wonder if any other members would make use of a function that could show them everything they've missed?

Click on 'Forum' then look along the top of the sections at the top of the page and you will see

View your topics • View unanswered posts • View unread posts • View new posts • View active topics

Though I'm not sure this will show you everything you've missed...

...just tested, and 'view unread posts' seems to show me posts I have not read, rather than posts that have not been read at all :thumbsup:
