Marked forum as read post ? - Moley - 12-05-2020
Ok I've marked the forum posts as read which was a mistake and now on ly a few posts come up. How do I change this setting so it's back to the way it was ?

It's not a setting mate, it just marks any unread posts as read so they won't show up in the New Posts page.
It does effectively make it difficult for you to see any posts that you hadn't read, cos the forum now can't tell you haven't read them. Best bet is to look at the Today's Posts link but even then you'll only get posts from the past 24 hours... Stuff you hadn't read that's older than that won't show up as unread - you'll just have to hunt through the different forums and see what you haven't read...

Maybe (big maybe) Rabster might be able to do something, but I'm thinking you're stuffed mate...

You can't. There's only 1 record per user of what posts you've read and by clicking the link you overwrite that record saying that as of now, you've read everything. Can't go back without a complete database restore from before you clicked it.

This is pretty much what I thought tbh

there's an option for "today's pots" which i think shows last 24 hour, may not be all that you missed depending on how frequently you check, but its above mark forums read

I've done this a couple of times, did suggest ages ago if the todays posts and mark forums read buttons could be further apart in the quick links!
