Add a " Mark all forums read " to header

[philbean]

So I'd like to add a Mark all forums read link to the header as well as the default footer one.

I tried what I thought would work... and what I've seen in a few older postings on here.

in header_welcomeblock_member I added the following line where I want the link..

<a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/misc.php?action=markread{$post_code_string}">{$lang->bottomlinks_markread}</a>

but when clicking the link, you just get..


Authorization code mismatch. Are you accessing this function correctly? Please go back and try again.


I notice when you hover over the link in the header, all the &my_post_key=....  bit is missing

Any ideas ?

Not sure that helps me.

Mines a brand new board so those fixes are already in place. Plus this isn't one of the 4 templates mentioned there and doesn't have any
<form> tag at all

It's because $post_code_string hasn't been defined at the time it renders the header. Change:

{$post_code_string}

to:

&my_post_key={$mybb->post_code}

Thats done it.
Nice one Thanks
