Mark all viewed

Huw

New forum member brickmatic asked if there was a way to mark all messages as read, which is a reasonable thing to want to do if you're new to the forum and hundreds of discussions have gone on before you joined.

So, I got the add-in added and as you'll see there's a new menu item in the blue bar. I haven't clicked on it yet to know what happens though!

Thanks Huw for responding to my request!

I clicked the button, but it doesn't seem to do anything for me. I still have the new message markers on the threads.

Huw

Me too!

I'll try and see what's up.

Have we figured out if "Mark all viewed" is doing anything yet? When I use it, I am expecting the discussions flagged with "new" responses will no longer be flagged, but it's not happening for me.

Me neither. That feature is currently as much use as a chocolate teapot.

I've asked tech support: if it doesn't get fixed before we go live I'll remove the link

Talking of removing links can we get rid of that 'Powered by Vanilla'? It's annoying me :-)

Any word from tech support? I still think removing the "x new" messages all at once would be a useful option to have.
