Mark Forums Read
When using the Forum Actions dropdown - Mark Forums Read, it works.
When clicking on the Mark Forums Read direct link at the bottom of the forum, we get:
Your submission could not be processed because a security token was invalid.
If this occurred unexpectedly, please inform the administrator and describe the action you performed before you received this error.
George,
I am trying to find this error -- for some reason I can't locate the Mark Forums Read direct link --> Where do you see it?
Unfortunately, the "security token" message is a frequent error message on this forum --it's triggered by a 2-3 different causes. But I will keep investigating.

Click back to the main forum and it's in between the forum pages and the Activity report.(Whats going on) I'm seeing the same thing George reported.Quote:
Where do you see it?
Mark, I will reply to your email with more details.
Ah, now I get it.
Yep, we will work on getting this bug resolved.
Mark
Though it must still actually do something? When I come back to the forum the next time, I only see the indicator for new posts on ones that have occurred in the meantime, not ones that were new this time.
Thinking I have seen that happen on another forum somewhere as well, but can't remember which one it was.
I am not sure I understood your question. Activity on this forum is so low compared to a couple of years ago, there's rarely a need to mark posts as read -- but as long as we are working on bug fixes we could address yours.Quote:

So, the thought was that, even though that error occurs, something in the background is actually working to remove the "new" symbols from forums after you have clicked that button, even if it looks like it is giving an error and not working.
Actually, that is helpful to know.Quote:

testing some things
So the "Mark Forums Read" link on the bottom of the page is now working correctly as intended in Chrome, but we seeing a possible issue on FireFox.
Is anyone else seeing anything amiss?
Normally, we test all code edits thoroughly before putting on the live site, but I may have skipped a step or two.
Mark
Additional testing and I don't see any errors, so we will consider this bug TO BE FIXED unless anyone reports more issues.Quote:

Looks good in Vivaldi.
George,
Thanks for the report. I don't even know anyone else using Vivaldi.
Mark
It's Chromium-based, as are Edge and Opera. Just about all browsers are these days, Firefox is a notable exception. I use Vivaldi because it's very customizable.
You're welcome - working just fine on this Edge of the Internet ;)Quote:
