Bookmark to mark all forums read

If you want to be able to click a bookmark to mark all the forums as read, bookmark this link:

https://portableapps.com/forum/markasread

After you click on it, it will forward back to the forums page.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Please don't

Please don't use it as a bookmark to enter the forums. It should be used when necessary as it's a bit database intensive.

A related suggestion,

If possible, add this 'mark all read' button button to the tracker page. Right now, after you've been thru the tracker new items, if you don't have to add anything else, you still have to go to the forums page to press the button to clear the 'new' flag on any items you weren't interested in reading - like the 199 post to an item that was already at 198.

One less webpage hit, one more great step for mankind!

Very good idea

Very good idea above. IMHO it would be a great addition, John.

It's already there

It's already there. I'd been playing with it and figured out how to get it working right after reading this.

Go to tracker?

Could you make the button on the tracker forward back to the tracker?

No

No, I can't. The module is only supposed to be used on the main forums page and on the individual forums. I manually added a portion of it to the tracker because people wanted it... but it's the main one that marks all read, which redirects to the forum page (where you'd normally click from). The module doesn't support the tracker itself.
