Help Unable to Mark Forums Read

When I go to "Mark Forums Read" I get:

The following error occured:

The requested page could not be found.


I'm using Chrome and I'm not having problems with other forums. So I'm wondering why I'm having this problem here. Is there some known issue going on or is there something on my end? Thanks.
 
I have in educated guess that it is part of the theme or style. Unfortunately, they have hidden that option preferences.
 
Hmmmm, guess I am the Odd duck.
I am using FireFox on this Linux laptop, and at home, I use FireFox with Win7, and on my mobile I use the AF app...

all three of them have always worked for me, and I use it every time I leave the app....
I cruise thru all the threads and if nothing interests me, I "Mark All Forums Read"

this way, I can come back 2 or 3 times a day and not have to wade thru threads I have looked at and don't care to see again.

I get that, it makes it easier when you come back to the forum.

This was the first time in all my years here that there was a problem with that option but it's working now so Phases must have fixed it.

EDIT: never mind, it's not working

This theme is about to change pretty soon anyway! :P

That said, it's working for me? Maybe it's off and on based on load..?
 
Sorry to bring up an old thread but I'm having difficulty finding this 'Mark all forums read' in both the PC site as well as in the app. On the PC, I'm using Edge. Is there site designed for another browser?

They've redesigned the forum since then... The link is now hidden...

But it would be nice if they could unhide it for us all

I vote for this too. It's a pain to have to somehow open everything (even stuff I'm not interested in) to clear the "unread" formatting. Just let me mark the forums as up to date in one fell swoop.

Do we expect ever to hear that this essential feature is restored? It's kind of a deal-breaker to be forced to read all new posts whether you're interested or not. (Add to that the constant spam from Sam Someone.)

These forums are becoming less and less useful without the ability to "mark all as read"
