zslane Posted April 4, 2019 Report Share Posted April 4, 2019 Is it possible to add an option in the user preferences for turning off the annoying confirmation dialogs that pop up every time I click on either "Mark forum read" or "Mark site read"? I don't ever click on those by accident and so I don't need to be asked if I really, really mean it every time. An option to turn this irritating behavior off would be very welcome.

I have found if I use the "Mark Forum Read" from the Home page, it does not give that popup! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zslane Posted April 7, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2019 Well, first off, there is no "Mark Forum Read" button on the Home page (that button only has forum scope). And the "Mark site read" button still brings up the confirmation dialog even at the level of the Home page, at least for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke Bushido Posted April 7, 2019 Report Share Posted April 7, 2019 Really? Like Amorkca, I don't get the confirmation if I select "Mark site read." It just does it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duke Bushido Posted April 7, 2019 Report Share Posted April 7, 2019 Cool. I don't get that. Evidently Amorkca doesn't, either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the "Mark site read" button still brings up the confirmation dialog even at the level of the Home page, at least for me. There are three forums here that I can mark as read (Dark Champions, Pulp Hero and Star Hero). If I hover over the black circle it shows "Mark forum as read" and if I click it, the forum no longer has any mails marked as unread, no confirmation required. If I go to the forum and click the button there, I am required to confirm the request. So, the answer is to read the mails you want, go to the home page and then click down the forums, marking them as read.... Doc PS: after playing with the pages, the confirmatory text you have posted comes from the home page when you want to mark the whole site as read...not individual forums.

zslane Posted April 8, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2019 Ah, thank you for that tip Doc! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Democracy Posted April 26, 2019 Report Share Posted April 26, 2019 Interestingly I have subsequently noticed that the confirmation happens in all situations on mobile devices but not on the home page when using a desktop/laptop... 🙂 Never noticed the difference before.
