HamRHead Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 On 10/31/2020 at 9:37 PM, Aveschapines said: Yeah, I don't see a way to mark a single thread as read; but you could go to the last post to achieve that, couldn't you? Are you on a phone? The "mark site read" was one of the first things I noticed; on my laptop it's in the light blue bar at the top of the page, right-hand side, next to "unread content". I just noticed if you scroll to the bottom of Help Me Identify a North American Bird, there is a place to mark the forum as read. The same is true for Photo Sharing and Discussion, and Help Me Identify a Bird Outside North America. This is different than the menu in the three bars at the top of the page which marks entire site as read. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aveschapinas Posted November 23, 2020 Author Share Posted November 23, 2020 Also - I don't remember if this has been mentioned - you can effectively mark a thread as read by opening the last post (you don't have to go through all of the pages).

Yes, I'm on my phone. Also, I think your last suggestion was mentioned, but I did not understand it at the time. Now I think I got it. Thanks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
