Okay --- how come I got to "Mark Forums Read" three times for it to happen once? Been going on two (three?) days now.
The purpose of this troubleshooting technique is to ensure that all forums on a website are marked as read, even if they do not update automatically. This is a common issue that can occur when using forum software.
This troubleshooting technique needs to be done 3 times because it helps to ensure that all forums are marked as read. Some forums may not update after the first or second attempt, so doing it 3 times increases the likelihood of success.
This troubleshooting technique should be used when there are forums on a website that are not updating to show new posts or unread posts. It can also be used if the "mark forum as read" button is not working properly.
No, not all forum software require this troubleshooting technique. Some forum software automatically marks all forums as read when a user visits the site or logs in. It is only necessary for forums that do not update automatically.
Yes, it is possible to do this troubleshooting technique more than 3 times. However, it is not necessary and may not yield any additional results. If the forums are still not updating after 3 attempts, there may be another issue that needs to be addressed.
