I'm having trouble marking all topics read. I get an error message telling me to log out and back in, and try again. I do this, and it doesn't work. Any suggestions? I'm on a Fire tablet if that makes any difference.

The Mark Read link uses a PHPSESID (a long random number to uniquely identify the session) in the link itself to validate the request, and if you are using an old link on a new session, it won't work.

Close all forum pages. Clear your browser's cache. I don't know what the Fire browser is like, but it will be something like "Clear History" or "Browsing Data" or something. Reload the forum page. Log in again and try it.
