Meta question - "Mark As Unread" not working?

I'm trying to "Mark As Unread" the "Initial Caps" thread, but it's having no effect.  Is the problem mine or with the forum?

Huh.  Well something weird is happening for me.  I tried marking 4 threads: two were successfully marked as unread, and two were not (XTester and Initial Caps).

I'll play with some more and clear my cache when I leave the office today, maybe something in there is messing me up.

Be sure you are logged in when trying to mark as unread.  I think that only works for registered users.  You may also need to reload the page after marking.

Sometimes I end up here without being logged in, and wonder why the new messages are not marked.   Embarrassed
It's the same issue.  Then I log in, and all is good again. Cool
