These are the changes of 2 1/2 years?

Not a bug actually so I won't post this to the bug-thread but I was wondering about a thing. In the old ENW, when I logged off, the system automatically marked all threads as read. So when I came back, it only showed that there was unread posts that were made during the time I was away. Now it doesn't do that. I liked the feature and was wondering if it's possible for installing it to ENW2? No hurries ofcourse. It's nothing important, just noticing this change.

Eeek!

That "feature" was one of the things that kept me away from the old ENWorld. If I wanted to check things out, I would have to spend an hour or more on it, because otherwise it would just mark everything read and I would have to rely on faulty memory to know where to pick up in various threads. The new way of doing it is much, MUCH better.

The reason the old boards marked all forums read when you logged off is because it lost the cookie on logout and had to start over with the thread marking. The new system doesn't have to start over, so its more accurate. The best solution is that when you are done click Quick Links > Mark all forums read.

Yeah, I've been doing this now. Just wanted to know wether or not it would be automated again . Now that I know, I just better get used to it, right .

He could also double-check his browser settings... There should be an option for clearing cookies whenever the browser window gets closed, for example.

That is, in fact, perfectly polite - thank you.

I'll ask Mike if there's any quick and dirty way we can present an alternative display option; I don't know if it'll be possible, but if it is then I have no objection to it. It would be down the list after lots of bug fixes, though!

Great! It does look cool, but it's not as easy to scroll around, especially on mobile devices. Thanks!!!
