Mark topics read feature

Dallan,
I noticed this before but when we are in one of the forum subtopics and click 'Mark all topics read" the program takes us back to the same page we just marked as 'read'. It 'would be nice' and like in the old program if when we clicked marked as read the forum would take us back to the index to look for another topic section to read. The way it is now it just takes longer to surf the forum.

I can look into it. Yes it was a nice feature of the old forum software... I wanted to upgraded though because it just was falling way behind in overall features. It was also horribly inefficient and buggy in placed. It was also VERY unsecure.

Hi Dallan,
I don't have a problem with the new forums at all. Looks great and is, ah, was workin great Rolling Eyes

It's just this feature marking "mark as read" returns you to the same page you just marked as read. Simply adds another page to wait on to load (we still suffer from dialup) that we don't want to look at any more. After all we just hit marked all as read. Wink

If you can get it to take us back to the main forum page it will eliminate having to wait on the page to reload that we are finished with that we just marked as read.
Sorry I missed the online PB. I look forward to trying it when you get it back up.
Have a great day,
Chris

Agreed. I'll look into it after I get things ironed out here.
