Read/Unread Posts - my dream for myBB

OK, here's a dream I've had for myBB. It exists for real at phpBB. It's obviously not a priority, just a dream.

"Messages since last visit" on the right hand side of phpBB remain highlighted until I have clicked on them and will remain highlighted until I've made them unread, even if I log in and out a few times. But not in myBB.

Going even more wishful. I may want to mark multiple posts at random as unread, i.e. would like to see an option whereby I could select the ones to be marked read. And leave the others unread, until I have time during a next session to get to them again.

Is that possible at myBB?

The structure is really different than phpbb, i modified a plugin to view new posts but it resets counting when you logout.

Thanks un4saken. I think the notification system takes care of it too. In fact it works MUCH better and is an improvement over the system I was following for reading my posts with phpBB. As I can set it up so that I get a list of "unread" posts in my Notifications Panel, and delete them as I read them at my leisure.

I'm very happy with the Notifications System you designed! :good:
