@David There used to be a feature in the old forums that if you weren't interested in a sub forum (say Ladies Room) you could double click the page icon (where now there are the balloons) to the left of the sub forum title and it would mark it as read. I liked that ability a lot. If it can't be done I can deal with marking them read from inside the sub forum.

It appears that the only way to mark a forum read is to go into the forum and click the Mark Read link at the top of the threads.

There probably isn't but I'll ask anyway: Is there any way to put an individual thread on ignore? I don't want to put an individual on ignore - just one thread they started that refuses to die. :burning: lol

It doesn't appear so. But that would be a great feature.

Bingo! :lol: It has definitely outgrown its usefulness and original purpose. I won't read it and it keeps popping up in my new posts feed. And thank you!

Yeah, I miss that too.

What makes some forum posts be be in bold font and others in bold font. In the past, once finished reading an entire post, when retuning to the forum sub-listing list within, say, "Life in Southern Maryland", the topic post was not bold to indicate it being read. If you returned later and someone added new post, it was in bold again to indicate. Now you have to click on every topic to find out if more posts have been added since a last visit. Can this be fixed?

I do like the fact that putting someone on Ignore DOES erase all trace of them from your feed.
Well, except the little column on the right where it shows the latest posts, and if someone responds
on a thread started by someone on iggy, THEIR post will appear - but I am ok with that.

Bold means unread posts/threads; not bold means you've read everything. It's kind of hosed up because it's new and the hamster doesn't know what you've read and what you haven't. To start fresh, go into each forum main category and mark it read (little box at the top right).

So now there is no way, at a glance, to ascertain which post we have replied in as before where a little green dot indicated such? BTW, I know my opinion means squat, however, I do not like the new format. What exactly was wrong with the old to move to this?
So far, I'm not crazy about it. Growing pains.

The old forum used to un-bold when you used the back button. This forum does not, but if you hit the page refresh, it will show the read items as un-bolded.
