I am finally getting used to the new layout and love what you guys have done with the place. I just have one question about a setting that maybe I'm not using that is different from the last version of this software:

In the old days (two weeks ago), if I opened up a forum (i.e. The Non-Baseball Forum) and saw that there were new posts in threads I don't necessarily read (i.e. Running Thread Redux and J-E-T-S 2-0-0-9), I could go back out of the forum and it would automatically mark those threads as read. Now, if I don't physically click into those threads, or click the Mark Topics Read link, they stay new for me.

Is there something I can set in my preferences that will mark all topics read once I leave a forum, even if I don't read them or click the button? If not, I can click the link, but it was there before and I'm not sure why the preference wouldn't carry over.

Thanks!

Re: Difference

I've always had to click the "Mark Topics Read" link to do what you say.

I'm in the same boat as TransMonk.

I don't know for sure, but I suspect that that feature you're missing was actually a bug in the old system.

I actually liked it.
