My Forums asterisk

    Not a huge deal, just slightly annoying:

    When I check "My Forums", it quite often happens that a forum will have an asterisk for unread posts, but when I check that forum, there's nothing new.

    At first I thought that one of them was happening because I had that forum bookmarked in my browser - but I deleted that bookmark and it's still happening.

    Even when I mark the forums as unread, seconds later they show up in My Forums with an asterisk. I check them, and there's nothing unread.

    This only happens sporadically, but can be annoying.

    I use boards almost entirely on my PC at home (chrome) or at work (shhh!!!) (firefox).

    It's happening to me on the touch site ( Android phone using Chrome)
    A thread would be marked as unread but I'd have read it earlier.

    I just assumed it was the browser though, maybe I should have posted here.


    I need to change over to the app anyways.

    Same issue reported here: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2057245526

    Doesn't seem to be a single person monitoring this forum though, which is really frustrating.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
