Marking Forums as "Read"

Qyburn

Hi,

It's probably staring me in the face somewhere, but I can't find an option to make the forums or individual boards as "read".  Is there such an option?

Thanks,

There is a little "cog" wheel on each listed board on the main page where all the boards are listed, click on it and there are two options, one is mark as read and the other is unfollow.

if you click on "your profile" that brings the options to "mark all viewed" or "mark category viewed"

This effectively just removes all of the blue "New" markers against all threads. This can also be done while on the main page of any board or even within a thread by clicking on the Profile button at top right and selecting "Mark Category Viewed" This clears the "New" markers on the Category (Board) you are currently in. 
"Mark All Viewed" clears the whole Forum.

Thanks, that second one works a lot better. 

To use the first you have to go first to Forum Home, then select "view all boards", find the board at issue, and click on the tool. This has the side effect of jumping you out of that "view all boards" and back to a subset, meaning you have to go back to Forum Home, then back to view all boards again.
