"Mark Forums Read"

#1 Post by DBeckett »

.
Has the idea of moving "Mark Forums Read" to the top of Board Index page been abandoned?

I notice that http://forums.virtualbox.org, which also uses phpBB, has it at the top and the bottom.

I'm just askin'.

It has been put into a dropped status on our list. For some unknown reason every time we attempt to move it, it breaks the code, and not only does it not work from the top, but often, no longer from the bottom. Seems like it should be a simple change, but it has proven not to be. Obviously we are missing something.

Too bad. It would be so much more convenient.

Oh well. It will take more than that to ruin my life.

I agree. it was one of the things I wished we could fix before going live. But as it is, a minor inconvenience.

I've been waiting for this as well.
Maybe you can look at the virtualbox site linked to to figure it out?

Actually we would need access to the multiple files on their server. It is all in the code on the several files that make up the forum software package.
