Forum Update: New/Read Thread Icons Re-enabled
Tuesday, February 26, 2008 by Zoomba | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Just like we promised, the thread icons indicating threads with new comments, or hot topics etc. are back in action!
The catch? Every thread on the forum right now is showing as "New" to you. Even threads you've read recently. This is because we reenabled the feature and you have no cookie tracking the information yet.
If you want to clear all the "New" markers just click on the "Mark All Posts As Read" link at the bottom of the forums. This will remove the "New" icons from everything on the forums. Only new threads, or threads with new posts from that point forward will show up as "New".
We've added a "Hot Thread" icon to point out threads that are much more active than others. This should help you spot the more interesting and active threads on the forums.
And now that "New/Read Posts" can be crossed off the list... it's on to tackling other features!

...so I am trying on this post.
Somebody give it a try please.
Half the time, the page reloads with an ad where the reply box should be located. WC is acting strange. Just wanted to give Zoomba some more info about how FF is acting on JU.

I think I'm having the same problem...that is if you mean it's still not taking me to the newest reply, keeps taking me to the original post, first page.

Option?? That's a standard, default, built-in feature of every forum software there is, and if it isn't included, it's either a bug or an oversight. What good is reading through tons and tons of replies if we ourselves have to keep track of the last one we read? The forum should do that already.
