Post Time
Since recently, when I log into the forums, it doesn't mark all new posts. For example, when I logged in around 10 minutes ago, topics from about 6 hours ago were marked as read, even though I haven't been here for over 12 hours. Only new topics from about the last hour or so are marked as new.
This didn't seem to happen until recently. Has anyone else noticed anything like this?
Yes. Yes I have.
Hey, you're the admin. Fix it!
He can't fix it if he doesn't have an idea of who else it's happening for
Yes.
SEXY McAWESOME TO YOU, MISTER
The "View All New Posts" feature hasn't been 100% accurate, but I haven't exactly been observing it scientifically enough to have any useful data to narrow down its cause.
I haven't noticed anything, but I'm probably just not observant enough.
I think it works okay for me.
I never log out to begin with...so NO!
yeah something like that
all the white gloves that appeared last time I logged in disappear, even if I log out and back in again real quickly
...Geddit?
It is supposed to be that way. Whenever you log out, all threads are marked as "read".Originally Posted by Port Regulator mobiletype
its been happening to me to
I don't log out generally.
It just happened to me now, and only General Chat is blue because somebody just posted something new.
How many different things can affect this?
Logging out
Timing out (23 minutes, I believe?)
Cookies
Marking forums as 'read'
vB settings
Logging out can only be done manually.
Timing out is a vB setting.
Then there are cookies, of course. Can people who have this happen advise on the browser(s) they're using?
Marking forums read is just as manual as logging out.
As for the vB settings - it should be cookie-based at EoFF, and after a quick check, it's still cookie based, so that shouldn't be a problem unless vB have changed the way in which cookies interact with such things.
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
