A better mark forums read system pls.

[JohnBee]

I know its there but I find the curent "mark forums read" options
a bit frustrating and long winded.

for example, when a user clicks on New posts since your last visit:
it would be nice if there was an option in that search result window to
mark all forums read.

Also it would be nice if there was a way to have "mark all forums read"
incorporated into the various forum table heads accordingly to that
the user can simply as he goes along on his new thread discovery.

I was thinking of a dynamic menu item in the navbar that would change
change according to the forum section the user is viewing.

ex:

search results = mark all read
forum home = mark all forums read
sub forum = mark this forum read
thread view = mark thread as read

1 line in the navbar but it changes accordin to the users viewing area
perhaps a java script with a condition could do this?

Has anyone though about this option?

you could easily do this on your own by adjusting your templates. No php coding needed.
