If you create a new Fossil repository with version 2.7 or newer, its default skin is already set up correctly for typical forum configurations. If you have an existing repository, you have two choices if you want its skin to be upgraded to support forums: 1. Go into Admin → Skins and switch from your current skin to one of the stock skins. If you were on a stock skin, just switch away from your current one to the actual stock skin, since they will be different after the upgrade. 2. If you have local customization that you do not want to throw away, you can use the diff feature of Fossil's skin editor to show how the skins differ. The remainder of this section summarizes the differences you're expected to see when taking option #2. The first thing is that you'll need to add something like the following to the Header part of the skin to create the navbar link: ................................................................................ <verbatim> div.forumPosts a:visited { color: #6A7F94; } </verbatim> This changes the clicked-hyperlink color for the forum post links on the main `/forum` page only, which allows your browser's history mechanism to show which threads a user has read and which not. The link color will change back to the normal link color — indicating "unread" — when a reply is added to an existing thread because that changes where the link from the `/forum` page points, taking you to the newest post in the thread. The color given above is suitable for the stock skin. Beware that when changing this example, there are some [stringent restrictions][vpriv] in modern browsers to prevent snoopy web sites from brute-forcing your browsing history. (See the link for the method, which explains the restrictions.)
