Can someone replace ?action=unread link with ?action=unread;all, because every time I login there's no new unread, so I had to use ?action=unread;all to see new unread posts.

What do you mean? You should have a button that says "all unread topics", all highlighted in dark blue?

You mean this?
"No unread topics found since your last visit. Click here to try all unread topics"
Yes, I know about that. it's still annoying anyway. This is why I removed on my site as it serves no purpose.  :P

Of course it serves a purpose. Each time I login here I see the unread since last time - but if it was something i didn't see last time, or didn't have time, I can still get to those by the "all" link on that page.

And besides, by letting everyone read "all" all the time, you put a higher strain on the server, as the db call to find all unread can take much longer than just unread since last visit.

I see, but chances are you will miss those "unreads" since "your last visit"
I missed some topics I have yet to read because there are times when you get timeout and logout and didn't read it yet, you login again it's just there's no unread posts there.  ;)
