Just lately, when I click "Mark Forums read", I get this message:

Invalid Forum specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the administrator


Anyone else?

Not seen that one myself although I did have to approve your thread which is puzzling?

I have just had a clean out of cookies, Temp files, etc. maybe that is where the approval thing comes from. But I was receiving the Admin message before that.

Sorry, could add there after closing, as I am still getting the Mod approval thing. What is that about. I definitely need to know

I have also seen it off and on quite often.

edit: last evening the "Mark Forums Read" worked fine for me. This morning (1/8/2013) it did not.
