    Icon9 Can't Mark Forums as Read

    So I went to the bottom of the main tav page to mark everything as read and got this:

    Your submission could not be processed because a security token was invalid.

    If this occurred unexpectedly, please inform the administrator and describe the action you performed before you received this error.

    Just verified: I get the same behavior.

    Same here, but reading the latest posts still correctly marks them as read for me.

    Does this for me as well. I'll be looking into this issue shortly to see what's up.

    Reading the post marks the post as read, but NOT the sub-forum. Like reading this will still have the WP Tavern Site forum with the un-read symbol on the main forum page.

    Apparently, this was a big issue after the upgrade to 3.8.5 as many other people have reported the same problem. The fix was easy as I needed to edit two template files to generate the hash security token. I just tried the mark forum read link and it worked for me. Can you verify if it works for you?
