View read conferences

[dentarg]

It doesn't seem possible to view conferences with no unread texts. It was possible in WebKOM, and I liked it.

What is it that you want to do with the conference? (I.e. what is the actual functionality that are you missing.)

[dentarg]

Read old texts. The most important being to read old texts in my personal conference (the direct message thing).

How would it work then? I don't use WebKOM so I have no idea how it works there. There is functionality for "Set unread" which you can use to read old texts, but I have no idea if that's what you're looking for.

In WebKOM you can choose an conference and click on a link "Earlier articles" which will show you earlier articles in that conference (if there are any that hasn't been garbage collected yet). There is also and "Later articles" link.

I use "Earlier articles" if I want yo find old texts (mostly in my own conference, "dentarg2") and if I have a lot of unread texts in an conference I usually skim the subjects of the texts, going through the conference with the "Later articles" link. When I have read what I want I use "Set unread" to set the unread count to zero.

Maybe you should try out WebKOM? :) You can use https://webkom.abc.se/ (just change the server to login to whatever KOM you want).

I'm sorry. I have now read a number of texts in "LysKOM(-klienten) jskom (och httpkom)" were you said you had nothing to do with the WebKOM to jskom switch at Lysator and you didn't make jskom to replace WebKOM. I have a better understanding of the project now.

I think this will be solved when #24 is fixed.

It's also possible that this is already fixed with the membership list in the sidebar (is in master, but not yet released. will be in 0.13).
