Forum:Marking message wall notifications as "read"

Is there a way to mark message wall notifications as "read" and clear them? Clicking on the notification takes you to the message wall but the notification stays. How come? Am I missing something?


 * What skin are you using? I am not sure how to do so in oasis but in Monobook, in the notifications dropdown, there is a button for mark all as read.--


 * The Drop down bar where you see ya notifications at the top press mark all as read   OA   Speak    Contribs    VD    20:13,3/12/2012
 * I use Oasis and there's no such button. There definitely is not.

 * I haven't got a message wall notification recently, but the Oasis drop down used to have a "Mark all as read" link as the first item, but only when you have unread message wall threads. -- Fandyllic (talk &middot; contr) 12 Mar 2012 12:34 PM Pacific


 * Again: There's no such button. Only the notifications I have already clicked on and read. Pecoes 20:37, March 12, 2012 (UTC)
 * @Pecoes, there's no way to clear them but there is a mark all as read button if you have new notifications. @Original, please template your sig. Best,

 * So there is a button but it only shows up when you get new messages and then it disappears again as all good buttons do? Very well. I'll wait till I get the next message then -- Pecoes 08:03, March 14, 2012 (UTC)
 * In the drop-down, just click on the message that is says &mdash; [/wiki/User:Sam_Wang S a m ] [/wiki/User_talk:Sam_Wang W a n g ] 12:35, March 14, 2012 (UTC)


 * Okay. I believe that you guys see a button. But there's no button in, around, on top of, underneath of or in the general vicinity of the dropdown menu on my screen and clicking on the message will only take me to the message but not clear the notification. I should probably buy a new computer. -- Pecoes 13:22, March 14, 2012 (UTC)

Do you mean on the dropdown in the top-right or on your actual Message Wall page? There is no way to clear them off the actual Message Wall page but there is a "Mark All as Read" in the top-right box (provided you have a new message). Iggyvolz 13:39, March 14, 2012 (UTC)


 * Would you be so kind to send me a message then? That would clear this up once and for all. -- Pecoes 13:58, March 14, 2012 (UTC)
 * Yep, it's sent! Iggyvolz 14:19, March 14, 2012 (UTC)


 * Thank you! Now I've seen the elusive button. I clicked on it too. The notifications are still there though. Except: There's one more now. I'm not sure if this is sad or funny. -- Pecoes 14:30, March 14, 2012 (UTC) -- Pecoes 14:30, March 14, 2012 (UTC)
