Quite a lot of new members come for some help and don't know about the green tick.Some members cannot get it to work. Other members forget to tick I have done it myself but usually go back to see if any not ticked and then tick them.

The subject has been brought up quite a few times in the last 5 years or so and we just have get on with it knowing that it is not going to get any better.

On the odd occasion that you do not get a reply you can't tick it as resolved so I leave them unticked.

When we first introduced the green tick - a good few years ago now, we used to send a monthly email to people, reminding them to tick their threads. It had limited success, and some people found it irritating, so we discontinued the practice.

Frankly it isn't a serious problem, and will be helped very shortly, when we provide a link to a new version of a guide to using the Forum. I've been writing it for some time, in my few spare moments,and it's almost ready.

A way to tick threads on the mobile site could be useful

I had problems getting on the site at one point last year where it would not recognise my log-in. Since then I have not been able to tick any of my threads as resolved and wonder how many others are also in the same boat.
