Is their any way to label unread posts new in a thread

Spacebattle and many other forums I've frequented over the years had an easy way to see which posts were unread by giving them a "new" label the first time a used saw them.

Is their any way to duplicate that for the MMM forums?

It would make it easier not to miss anything.

And if it isn't an option that can be enabled are their any add on's to firefox or extensions to chrome that can do it?

There are the "Show unread posts since last visit" and "Show new replies to your posts" links at the top of the page. Is that what you're talking about?

No I'm afraid that's not what I'm talking about

I've included a screenshot, but basically I'm asking if their is a way to label posts we haven't read.

As it is all we know is a thread was updated, and generally that means to go to the last page and try to find where you last were.

But if at all possible I'd appreciate knowing for sure.

Click on the orange "new" button and it will take you to the earliest unread post.

Thanks, I didn't realize that and it is bound to be useful.

I was hoping it would also have a label admittedly because I save updated pages as HTML and read them on my phone later.

Still at least this will insure I don't miss anything.

 

Wow, a phone plan for fifteen bucks!
