Old Topics as Unread

  • Indeed, this is the desired behaviour.

    When a user visits a forum,topic or reply for the first time (ever) on the website, the date of that initial visit is saved; then compared to the forum/topic/reply date to determine (among others conditions) if the item should be set as “read”.

    BUT you’re true, people should also be able to choose if they want the “first time visit” check to be enabled.

    I’m not sure i’ll have time soon to do this, but it is doable.

    Can you confirm you would need it ?

    Thanks

    However we decided not to use bbPress. We decided to create our own forums using custom post types and Gravity Forms.

    If you would like to expand or create a new plugin that marks posts (and custom posts) read I would be happy to send a donation to help with its development.

    PS
    There are a couple that do it using cookies, but I have not found one that has a database solution. I think it would be a popular plugin.
