Is there any way to get “New Posts” since some time before “last visited”?

Or, expressed another way - right now my screen says " You last visited: Today at 08:45 AM " Is there any to make that date yesterday?

Are you noticing the error that I have noticed, which is that all new posts are selecting to current time (I think?), even though I might not have seen them yet? I end up with a very short list of unread posts and pages of “read” posts, but if I open the newer read posts, I’ll see the view first unread flag at the top and can skip down to where I last was in the thread. I have not used the “mark all as read” function. This has happened repeatedly.

If not, never mind. 🙂

I have noticed sporadic errors in “You last visited:…”
