    My workflow:

    I can keep up with my FAVS and other assorted machine-specific topics for which I have created shortcuts (GoT, AFMr, JP, etc.), reading the ALL the new topics/posts daily. I already HIDE the sub-forums that do not interest me. I will occasionally DRAIN high-traffic threads that I will never open.

    FRONTPAGE still has lots of threads that do not interest me, but I really don't want to DRAIN them. Instead, I click them, then hit the BACK button immediately, essentially marking then as READ. I typically will scan thru and read all the new posts on the first 3-4 pages on FRONTPAGE, either reading or "Marking as Read" - that's a lot of clicking.

    My Request:

    Button/Option to "Mark all Topics as 'Read'"?

    Other forums I visit have this option for either the "Current Open SubForum", or "All SubForums". I guess this has established my workflow habits. Mark all as READ at the end of the day, start the next day with a clean slate - just seeing new threads/posts as UNREAD since my last visit at the top of the page.

    Is this possible, or already a feature here I have missed?

    Thanks!

    Thanks Robin,

    Not sure how VBForum and XenForo manage this.

    As you note, based on date might be workable: Something like: "Mark Today's Topics as Read"

    Thanks!

    Quoted from Black_Knight:

    Mark, you should use the Topics which you Viewed with the Hide Idle setting on.

    Yep, I use Hide Idle (awesome) in Favorites, but not available on the Frontpage.
