Jump to unread

Love this forum full of Oliver people.

 

I have looked and looked, is there a button to take me to the first unread post?

If you hover over the activity button in the nav bar at the top, you will have a row pop up that has "unread content" in it.

Thanks for that, I saw it once long ago in the past and could never figure out how to do it again.  Yea....

I was asking about going to what I have not read in a specific thread

 

This is how our forum here shows what is not read

 

Here is how iRV2 forum does it.

 

It is a very common function in other forums.  I do not think the Oliver forum has the function.

In the menu and under forums, as well as a button near the top right is "Unread Content", which shows a list of all threads that are new since your last visit, or unread in general. When this list is presented, there is a large ball or star to the left of the thread title. Clicking on this takes you directly to the first unread post. The ones with stars are threads that you have participated in.

My typical forum visit (on my desktop) is to poke the Unread Content button, and then once the list is presented, I'll Command-Click (right-click?) all of the balls or starts I'm interested in reading. This opens them all up in new tabs. Once done, I mark all threads as read if I skipped any, so that I'm caught up for the next visit.

That's it!  A little different, but that IS it.  Thanks
