On another message board, members had the ability to mark individual posts as read. Is this an option that I am missing or one that could be added?

There is a benefit in reading a thread and marking specific posts as read so that when you return to the thread you are notified of which posts you have yet to read.

I think what you ask for is essentially done. The stars at the left of the Forum titles show if new posts have been added since your last visit. Within each Forum, the thread titles are Bolded if there has been a new post added in that thread.

Then you have a column which notes the last post and can go directly to it by clicking the little blue arrow button.

Each time I visit, I click on "New Posts" at the top of the main page. The blue circle at the left of each topic takes me to the newest post in that thread.

Maybe that will help?

Thank you both. I'm still learning the ways of the PB.
