A feature which has been demanded for years, threads now Automatically mark themselves as read once you click them and they'll be marked as unread as soon as a new reply is made to the thread.

To see what I mean, go into a forum, notice all the 'New' icons to the left? Now click a thread, refresh that forum page, notice how it's no longer marked as 'New'?

This was a complicating feature to implement due to the possibility of putting a TON of strain on the server. I've successfully made this feature without any noticeable server strain.

Enjoy

Cool nice to see this added. However I see a few bugs, one being it does not mark as read when you visit the new reply page. Also it does not work on the new posts page either.

EDIT: not sure if this is related to this feature but I've come across a few max execution time errors in past few minutes. I guess we will have to wait and see if others get these as well.

I was wondering what was up, I'm happy to see this feature implemented, not only is it something I've been missing it will make modding a tad bit easier (for me anyway).

JigSaw : I don't think that error has anything to do with it as it only happened once. Plus I ran my queries through PHPMyAdmin and they only took 0.02 seconds.

Yeah it doesn't do it on New Reply page but most people view the thread before replying and even after replying you're redirected to the thread but I can make it so that it does it if you go to reply to a thread but don't actually view the thread.


geeogree : No it doesn't but I'll work on that next.


JigSaw : Yeah that isn't right, I'll look into that now.

well, I almost never view the thread first actually .... I can reply to a thread without actually viewing the thread before or after a reply. It's really easy

glad to see you added that though

I added back the ability to mark forums read and to mark all forums read. On the index page there wont be a New symbol next to a forum that has unread threads but instead the date of the last post made in that forum will be a lighter and a little redder. Oh yeah, I also added the date of the last post made in forums.

Davideo7 : Is there any way to do the same with the private forums? Making a last post thing like on the other forums? I always like to check what new things are going on behind-the-scenes.

Edit: Never mind. Nice job adding the extended view! It's awesome!

Why is there a None sub-forum in every category?

Zeldisaster : If you click the 'None' sub forum, basically it brings up any thread that isn't part of a sub forum.

this isn't a big deal... but the "new" in the extended view only goes away once you hit "mark forums read".... not a big deal, but it would be nice if there are no unread thread in the forum then that new should go away.

that's fair. Like I said, it's not a big deal.... I'll just need to get used to hitting mark forum read again.

I just figured if it wasn't going to be a problem then it would be worth doing....
