I don't see any way to ignore a topic either.  I see a section for that in my profile but I don't see any buttons I can check on any forum threads.
I use Seamonkey browser. It is based on a Firefox engine.

I have a scroll button on my mouse.  Works great for me as an ignore button

Maybe a screenshot of what the button looks like and where it is at?

Nope. And isn't it supposed to be an "ignore topic" filter? So that wouldn't make sense for an unread posts list anyway... unless I'm seriously overthinking this...

You should see something like the following:



New topics as well as existing topics with unread posts will show up here, so checking the box(es) and clicking 'Ignore Topics'  keeps them from showing up again on the 'Unread Posts' list (until you max out the list, then the oldest ones drop off).

You can also un-ignore from your profile/settings page.

Fine Ed, but how do you actually initiate ignoring a topic?

The only button I see on the right is Mark All Messages As Read. I don't have the other 2 buttons.  The topics also do not have the empty check box on the right side.

Check the rightmost box, then click on the Ignore Topics button

Time to logout/login, flush cache, cookies, and such...?  :?

sometimes too, a web page can be cached by an intermediate server somewhere in the web between yourself and the TRW host server(s).  In that case you might have to wait for the (stale) page(s) to be evicted from the intermediate server's cache before you can access the updated page.   I used to see stuff like that when I would edit/crop photos on a service like Photobucket.

I am on an iPad. I only have the button to mark all topics as read.  I remember the other buttons in your picture but they may go back to when I was on a laptop.
