Marking messages as "read" when they aren't

Hello patsmom…sorry for the delay in replying. The forum uses new/old as opposed to unread/read when deciding what to bold and unbold. Any threads with new posts since your last log in will be bolded. However, as soon as you log out the process starts over. If you log in one minute later only those threads with posts since your last log in one minute earlier will be bolded. It does not equate to what you have or haven’t read, though.

I am not aware of any setting on My Control Panel to change this behavior, and have reached out to our tech folks to see if there are any options. I do agree it is difficult to keep track of where you left off.
