Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

When I read a new Thread, or a thread with new postings, why, when I come out of that thread having read all the postings, is there an grey down-arrow beside that thread?

Then it's probably because the arrow is based on the lastvisit variable which doesn't change throughout the lifetime of your session.

Cheers. But is that my session on the actual forum or my login session? And why does the new posts icon change and not this?
