Okay, now that I've got the "First Unread Post" button working with your help, let's do another one.

The only Mark Forums Read button that works is at the bottom of the "Board Index" screen.

There are others in various places, but they don't appear to work.

Example: If one hits the "View unread posts" button that lives immediately to the right of the two "Map" buttons on the main page, one is presented with a list of new posts. So far, so good. Immediately to the left of those Map buttons is a button that says "Mark forums read".

If one hits that "Mark forums read" button, and then hits the "View unread posts" button again, the same list with the same posts comes up, because hitting the "Mark forums read" button didn't do anything.

However, if one hits the "Mark forums read" button, then goes to the "Board index", scrolls down to the bottom and uses the "Mark forums read" button that is right above the chat screen, then goes back to the "View unread posts" screen, one will find either no posts (because they've just been marked read) or one or two new unread posts.

So I concluded that that is the only working "Mark forums read" button, and I wish they all worked.

I'll let Dan comment on those, as I don't ever use them.

However, I know that "Mark topics read" in the upper right corner within each section will work. For example, if you go into General Discussion and click that, then it will mark all GD topics as read.

Mark forums read only works on the home page of the forum, marking ALL forums are read. Marking Topics read, as Steve mentioned above, marks individual topic/sections are read.

The View Unread/New/Active is a search query.
