Mark forum read

[Halish Railway]

Help! I’ve accidentally pressed ‘Mark forums read’. Does anyone know how to undo this,

Been there done that!

If it’s any consolation, the forums do get filled with posts fairly quickly and within a day or two it won’t look any different..

I've done it as well - before the changes it required confirmation, which it no longer does.

Cheers for the feedback - It’s sorted now!

Not the case with me - If I click on "mark forums read" I get a box appearing asking me to confirm if I want to mark forums read.

In the previous version you got the choice to either mark all forums read or just mark the forum you were currently in as read. In the new version there is just the option to mark all forums. I miss the option to be able to mark the current forum as read, which I found to be more useful.

Edit: I've just noticed there is a separate button, next to the Watch button, which does mark the current forum as read - excellent!

I've hit this button accidentally several times but got a confirmation window each time. For me the problem is that it's where the "New Posts" button used to be so I head for that part of the screen without thinking about it.

You can also double click the semaphore signal of the relevant sub-forum

I might have been talking slightly cross-purposes here - this is what I was talking about, whereas everybody else has meant the buttons at the top of the forum!

The function I miss the most is the ability to 'fold' up the sections in the top level page. There used to be up/down arrow buttons at the right hand ends of the section title bars, which would fold/unfold the sections. This was useful to hide the sections that I wasn't currently interested in and saved a lot of scrolling up and down on the top level page. I've not found a way to do this with the new forum software.

I've just noticed that buttons have been added to the right hand ends of the section title bars on the top level page. I can now fold/unfold the sections again!

Thank you for restoring this facility!
