Is there a "Mark as read" tab anywhere in the forums?

[Success101]

It's a bit of a hassle that I have to click on every topic that is new and bold, in order to manually mark all of them in every forum I visit as "read". I was hoping that maybe there was a better way. I'm forum retarded, so, yeah. Thanks in advance.

I haven't seen one. In fact I never mark things as read. What I do is note the last time I visited the page (this is shown at the top left corner of the page), then I hit the "New Posts" link. Each post list the last time someone added a comment so I can easily tell what I've already seen.

You can mark all the threads in a forum as "read" by double-clicking on the ADBB logo that's on the left of each forum.



If a forum is unread, it will be marked with a light logo (like the Chit Chat forum, in the image above). If it's read, it will have a dark logo (like the Puzzle Page forum).

That's the only option the board has for marking forums (and the threads in them) as "read".

will marked as read forums and threads still show up in the new post search?

Yes, but the title won't be bolded anymore.

Thanks I was hoping to cut that down from a billizion pages to just a few.
