Mark Unread

Post by ray.wurlod »

I would like the ability to mark a thread as unread, or flag it in some way, so that I can return to it later if I am busy during the "now" that I am reading the new posts on DSXchange.

"Mark unread" is a standard option at every other board that I visit. This is also the only place with two behaviours that irketh me:

1. When you leave the site, everything you haven't read is lost, meaning they show as "read" when next I visit. Everywhere else they stay until I either actually read them or mark the forum(s) as read.

2. If I keep my browser open and visit other sites after being here, when I reopen the site it's as if I never left. The same number of "new since my last visit" posts shows on the home page, everywhere else I come back to it starts over new. Here I have to close my browser to reset things.

Perhaps whenever the new site makes its debut, everything will be wonderful. :wink:
