Hi,

I have just returned, after being away from the forum for a long time.

Is there a way to mark all unread posts as read ?

Then I can see new stuff easier. Cheers

Thanks Geoff,

I tried that, didn't find any answers.

I think one needs to be a admin of these forums to add the 'mark all posts as read' button.

You can do it per section anyways. Say, open up "Support" for example then click on Mark topics read (upper right above Last post).

I'm no forum admin, only have moderator powers for two subforums, and I get a hyperlink to mark all forums as read:
