Mark All Read

[Martian]

This may be nitpicking but I've done it 3 times now and I don't know what I've read and I've not. I accidentally hit the mark all read button when trying to hit my home and then I loose all of the threads that have been updated that I've subscribed to. Is there any way to move or disable it? Does anyone else have the same problem?

I have accidentally done that, but I don't think I'd want the current arrangement changed myself because I use the Mark All Read so much on purpose.

If you accidentally click on the Mark All Read, then go to the "24 Hours" and look at the time to go back to the time you last checked TBN. Of course that only works if you've been on TBN in the last 24 hours.

I wonder if when you push the button, that it would open a *confirmation* window asking if indeed you wanted to Mark All Read?

Personally, after doing it a few times... I learned to be really good at clicking just "My Home"

that's what I'd thought it would do the first time. Wrong. The next three times were on accident. Not really that big of a deal but kind of annoying. I guess I'll take a two second pause over my home veggies clicking:laughing:

SON OF A Beehive... I just did it $%^#&@* Talking to the wife at the same time as I was *trying* to clicking "Home"...

Guess I'll do the 24 hour button for a while...

I never click MARK ALL READ.I always click on forum tools then click MARK THIS FORUM READ.Never have time to read all of TBN each day,or in warmer months i might not check it for a week.This way i can keep track of the ones ive read and save the ones i havent

TBN should separate the two buttons from each other. It's too easy to hit the MAR when you are intending to hit My Home. Aggravating.

I do it once a day. And its usually the first thing in the morning when I want to see the mall that were updated over night.

I agree with teg that there should be a confirmation window.

That would work.

If you accidentally hit all read, you can go to the pulldown menu of recently visited pages (down arrow next to the forward/back buttons) and go back to any time since you logged on. Save missing some new posts regardless of what method of new post viewing you use.
