been wondering the same thing myself. it's a lil frustrating trying to follow along
Buk you found the unread message link now and are good?
My assumption is unread are all threads that you have not read since your last visit to the site.
Replies are replies to posts that you have made in a thread.
Yes 100% correct.
First this board works well, unlike some I have used...
I use the unread button. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. If I get nothing using the unread button, then I try:
No unread topics found since your last visit. Click here to try all unread topics.
WHat I would really like to see is once you click unread and all the threads are shown, I would like a box next to each topic that I could select and individually mark threads unread.
If I want to clear out my unreads, then I have to look at each topic, or click mark all as read.
My $.02 on the board.
Todd there is a check box next to each topic on the unread message page. Check any threads you want to mark read and select mark selected message as read.
I never go to the home page so I never realized there were posts there. LOL I always use unread. The only thing I've never liked is if I click on unread and don't have time to read everything they are gome the next time I bring the page back up. The are still marked new if I scan the forum which takes even more time.
Scanning the forum is not necessary. As Gary mentioned click on
all unread messages link. It will be displayed whenever there are no unread messages showing. Why SMF programmers don't code the unread message link to the
all unread message link I never understood Micki. But whatever.... Easy way to deal with it is just use this link for Ohio Reef and make it a button on your toolbar like I have below.
