Mark All Boards Read

[jok3r]

Hi!

I have grab an excellent code from here (can't find thread to link) that included "Recent Post" alongside with "Participated" button in top-right of my forum. The global header in my forum is as this:

<script>

$(function(){
   $("a.recent-threads-button").clone().attr("href", "/posts/recent").html("Recent Posts").insertBefore($("#navigation-tree"));
});

</script>

I would also like to include a "Mark All Boards Read" on the right side of those if possible. What should i add to the code above?

Thanks

Hmm i was surprised to see this not solved. As i am a noob please someone tell me if no replies means either:
a) too hard/needs time to make
b) too easy to bother to post

hoping for a solution

A slight problem with this is behind the scenes the markBoardsRead function pulls data about the AJAX URL to use from the page data but that URL is only available when on the home page. It can be fixed by specifying an URL manually so the function completes successfully

<script>
$(function () {
$("a.recent-threads-button:first").clone().attr({
"href" : "/posts/recent",
"title" : "Recent forum Posts"
}).html("Recent Posts").insertBefore($("#navigation-tree"));
$("a.recent-threads-button:first").clone().attr({
"href" : "javascript:proboards.home.markBoardsRead()",
"title" : "Mark all boards read"
}).html("Mark All Read").insertBefore($("#navigation-tree"));
/* make sure board read url is set if not */
if (!proboards.data('mark_boards_read_url')) {
proboards.data('mark_boards_read_url', /* location.origin + */
location.protocol + "//" + location.host + '/boards/mark/read')
}
});
</script>

Thank you a lot for this (and the great PlugIns as well!)

Works perfectly

I actually overlooked the fact that you wanted it after the participated button so if you change the following line


}).html("Mark All Read").insertBefore($("#navigation-tree"));


to


}).html("Mark All Read").insertAfter($("#navigation-tree").siblings(':first-child'));


that should rearrange the order

Thanks again! Haha that minor change was requested by other Admins but i thought it was not possible. I applied it now.

I think this is something more people will be interested to see in Header-Footer/Template Library
