"New posts" not being shown

[Kaitlyn2004]

So I am working on a project where there is a central user system and I end up setting the vb cookies and inserts into the session table.

When I then go to the forums, it correctly has me logged in and everything except there is never any new posts showing, even if I wait, refresh the page, and see a newer post... it isn't actually SHOWN as a new post.

This isn't the case when I log in from there directly.

I'm going to be actively looking into this but if anyone has any ideas I would greatly appreciate it!

What are the cookies you write?

When logging in from the system that works:


[bblastvisit] => 1222440701
[bblastactivity] => 1222440701
[bbsessionhash] => 7e17f1ebc9af28f1eb474ca6ff9235e5


when logging in from the one that doesnt:


[bblastvisit] => 1222440811
[bblastactivity] => 1222440811
[bbsessionhash] => c205e55b241a25123a1ed2a2c1f13f6f

Your last visit seems to be higher then the regular vB cookie, that might be the reason.

What type of read marking are you using?
(AdminCP -> vBulletin Options -> General Settings -> Thread/Forum Read Marking Type)

it's just later because i logged in after... :)

it is cookie based.

Ironically this setup works on our development server. Difference is on live they are physically different servers... and there are multiple web servers for the site, but that shouldn't be causing the issue... hmm....

What's weird is that using the new login system that doesn't work... there are NEVER new posts... i can wait 30 minutes with MANY new posts, all with a higher date timestamp... and still, not being shown as new...

Does the same happen if you switch to a different read marking type (database)?

[Kaitlyn2004]

Fixed, stupid overlook on my part. Thanks

What was the reason/solution?
