How do you mark forms as read?

[Member Mynaardt]

Hi again, All!

Just having a look through some of these forums and I can’t find an easy way to mark a forum as read easily.

How does want doe that? To save reading through massive numbers of old posts sort of thing.

Thanks in advance!

I use my memory in my mind. Just because. There is no option I see under Forum>Recent Posts>Latest Topics > Most popular topics > Topics with no replies > Topics with most replies > Old Forum Archive.

I try and keep up with all the activity here.

Well, WordPress is “Eierlegende Wollmilchsau“.
It can do everything, but nothing well.
Probably via yet another plugin.

You can’t mark posts as read, however fortunately you don’t need to remember everything.

If you open the “Recent Posts”, on the upper left side (under Forum dropdownmenu),
all unread posts are marked with a yellow bell.

noClue, thanks for investigating potential solutions, but (the “MarkAsRead” plugin is discontinued, and) the “bbpresss” plugin probably will not honor (it will ignore or override) other plugins added into the WP instance. In short, I’m convinced that we are just SOL; we’re stuck with the limitations imposed by this rinkydink bolt-on “bbspress” forum platform.

[ when you use the “Recent Posts” view ]

all unread posts are marked with a yellow bell

That’s a good tip !

I agree with skidoo; that’s handy.

Thanks.
