So I've had users complain A LOT about how the forum "doesn't show new threads on the forums"

Well thats because you need to mark all forums read... They didn't notice that.

The old forum system we used marked forums read when you left, that would be an awesome option, and I figure easy to program, just run the "mark forums read" function when a session dies or some such.


Also a smaller suggestion, not that important but would be useful, is being able to assign a language to either a style or a forum.


Other than those two smallish things, I'm VERY happy with the software you guys provide, thank you very much.

I like the second idea

I disagree completly with the first idea - I like to read at least 80% of posts on my board and would never be able to do this if I didn't know which ones were new.
A mod that does this would not be easy to write. Please PM me if you want a mod that does this.

I agree, a personal option to "Mark all as read" on leaving would be nice. having just upgraded a board from 1.3 to 2.1.6 y users are complaining...

Isn't it standard how IPB does it now? You can always press 'mark posts as read'

Great idea! I'd like to see it realized too...
