I have a question...
You know how you can go and look at the unread topics since last visit? and then when you read all of those, there is an option that says to go to all unread topics. That button has never worked for me, and i know there are some that i have never read... is it a setting on my part? or does it just not work?
Thanks,
~ Chel

Is it possible you have read all the topics and there aren't any "unread"?
God determines who walks into your life....it's up to you to decide who you let walk away, who you let stay, and who you refuse to let go.

That was actually going to be my next comment. :thumbsup2: If you read (or mark read) all of the "unread topics since your last visit" on every visit, then there aren't going to be any other unread topics on subsequent visits. Make sense?

If you're not doing that, then I don't know why it's not working for you.

i'm not doing that, and there arent some that i have read, because i can still go to the individual boards and see the ones with NEW on them still there. Is there a setting somewhere that could have gotten checked that would make it do that automatically? i have never even seen the check all read button... lol.

dude, so the only thing i had to do was edit the first post and it would have changed the typo? lol. i tried editing the last post, and that only worked for the one i changed. Silly me, didnt even think of editing the origional one.

:pound: Sunlight for calling herself silly for not knowing something she couldn't have known.  :nono:

Nothing silly about that. Not knowing is the first and most necessary stage to learning. Correcting mistakes is learning.  :great:

Not that I've seen, but there may be. I'll poke around a bit. If I find something, I'll let you know.

lol Yeah, that's it. :teeth: *hugs Chel* It doesn't have as much to do with being smart as having experience. :teeth:

sunlight

  :attackhug: Be full of hugs!

B

B

sunlight
