Suggestion: Settings for "Unread Posts" ?

(1/2) > >>

AcornArmy:
Would it be possible to allow a user to set preferences for which unread posts they want to have added to the "Unread posts since last visit" list? I ask, because while I've read all of the Dresden books, I'm still working my way through the Codex Alera, and I've noticed several spoilery topic subjects in the Unread Posts list whenever I check it. I do my best to just ignore them, but things like "Isana's Marriage" and such still make an impression.

It might be helpful to posters who haven't read all of both series to be able to check off whether or not they want unread posts from both the Dresden section and the Codex Alera section, or even whether or not they want posts from the Spoilers sections of either forum to be added.

Thanks for your time and effort in running the board, Iago and mods.

That's not possible without some very heavy code writing work, as far as I can tell.  Something I'm unlikely to have time for anytime soon. :P

Quantus:
Blast... I dont use the Unread post thing at all because it gets so bogged down in McAnally's

It does take a minute to do it, but I actually go into the sections I'm not interested in, like the Codex Alera since I haven't read any of them yet, then hit the 'mark as read' without even paying attention to the topic threads.  I go through all of the sections I don't read before I hit the 'Show Unread Posts since last visit' link.  It really shortens up the list!  :)

Quantus:
Could there be a "Mark as Read" option to cover an entire board, so you could make a quick wi[pe of the spoiler boards for example?
