Mark this Forum Read/Subbed * not working

Hobart · 10-03-2003 10:47am #1

Guys,

The above features are not working. Everytime I come back to boards I see multiple threads as having new posts, including some threads I have started which have had no replies??, I have cleared all my cookies and re-logged in but to no avail? Also the * on the subbed menu do not clear (I presume they are related in some way)

OS = Win2000 SP2
Browser = IE5

Ok, I tested this all morning and its working for me.
Remember if you post a reply it will be considered a new post in the forum and so you will see a *.

Can you do this for me?

1. find a forum you are subbed to with a * by its name.
2. Go to that forum and click the "Mark Forum as Read" link.
3. check if that forum subsequently has a * beside it.
(if it doesnt, all is well... if it does, then go to step 4).

4. Look to see if the forum still has threads with the grey square with a downward yellow arrow beside any of the top threads. (that indicates that VBB thinks they are new).

Remember also that we get 1 post every 30 secs now so some forums are very busy and regularly get new posts...

Thanks for that Dev. I have tried those steps but to no avail. I also have seen a number of threads on this and tried various methods of clearing it up. Have a look at the attached (3 zipped Jpegs) and note the times at the bottom.
