    Does anybody use the "What's New" button at the top of the page? I'm thinking of removing it as the New Posts button kinda does a better job. Please comment or just vote on the poll above, thanks.

    I use it, but it duplicates "today's posts" and the "home page"

    Yeah, but the New Posts button does the same thing really. I want to delete it because the bar is getting a bit full up there and running out of space for new buttons.

    I just use home page. Would like to have an option to mark as read an item without opening it but it is not critical.

    That can only be done for the entire forum, not a per-thread basis unfortunately.

    If you increase your screen resolution to 1920x1080 there is still a lot of space left on that bar at the top... just saying...

    Have experienced a new problem the go to the first unread button on the home page keeps giving me "No Thread specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the administrator" message. If I click on the thread and go to page one and use the button at the top of the page to go to the first unread it works ok.
    Running windows 7 and firefox 36.0
