Are broken.  Can it be fixed?

Sounds like it would be tricky to validate.

Nifty.  Can you fix it?

I probably could.

Actually I have only recently become aware of the feature! It doesnt seem that great to me even if it worked!

I much prefer the  "Active Topics" feature on FD's Polanimal which just lists the actual last 20 posts from all boards.

Any way you could add that on Ozpol freediver?

Check to the right of the Ayers Rock logo at the top of the page, in bold.

And yes, it is also down the bottom of the forum home page.

Is the 'mark as read' thing fixable or not freediver?

Okay, I'll play.

Why don't you have it fixed?

Exactly!

It is useless, and a better way to see the latest posts is to camp on the forum tab and you see the down the bottom the latest 20 posts of all boards including the titles.

Just refresh periodical and you have the latest!

It was important to those Members who used it.  I guess you reckon you don't need to worry about what your Members became accustomed to using.

If you are a 'user' like me, I read the entire Board, and then after having done that, I'd mark it as read.  Come back and it is obvious (with the blue tabs) which Threads have been commented in after I had read.

I am complaining.  I guess I don't count.

You complain about everything Aussie. "Being important" never seems to factor into it.

I don't, you know.  I am just your convenient whipping boy.  The 'mark as read' function does not work.  It is not a complaint merely because it is brought to your attention. 

Seems to me...you are not giving this Forum necessary attention, eg, the issues over night seemingly occasioned because you missed paying a bill.

I can read notices from Firefox about an insecure site, and follow their links which tell me the problem was that a bill was to be paid last night.

Not confused.  That is just your usual disingenuous line you toss at anyone who raises a simple issue with you which corners you.

Any Member who tried to log in here overnight and today was told, in my case by Firefox and Chrome, that the problem was that you had not paid a bill.

If the capacity to post a screen shot here was expanded, I'd show you.  But....'the image is too large'  blunts enthusiasm.  Don't have that problem at Monk's place and others.  Only here.

No they were not Aussie. Don't lie.

How on earth does a person gain your blind confidence in your ability to solve technical matters despite the long history of leading yourself up the garden path and your complete ignorance of what is going on?

I was getting a certificate error ?

Title: Re: "Mark as read," 'Mark all as read" facility.

Everyone did.  It seems FD did not renew the Certificate with a payment due on the evening of the 7th March.

No...that's what the Notice (in the 'advanced' section) said.  A payment was due on the 7th March.

It says lots of things Aussie. One thing it does not say is that there is an unpaid bill involved here. Thanks for confirming that you are a liar.

Cute.  So....did you pay if BEFORE it expired?

Just a simple, non facetious, non smartarse, answer is all Members want.

I don't care if you missed the payment.  I'd just like to know WTF happened.

Obviously NOT!  (And NO, you have not told your Members 'several times' what you know.  You reverted to type/form and made crap meaningless comments instead of a clear explanation.)

It was only recently that this http/https thing became a problem when you gave up the dedicated server.  Setanta said he could fix it for you.  Did you allow him to?

All I know is that your Members have been stuffed around and all you want to do is play smartarse with IT dumbarse me, instead of openly telling Members WTF happened.
