Mark forums read

[datoneer]

I've notice strange bug on my site. Every time i need to read threads or posts twice to icon becomes "no unread forum posts". Is there anyone who had the same problem. How to fix this?

Thanks

I can't clearly understand what your question is.

Create a new style with no parent:

Styles & Templates > Style Manager > Add New Style
Parent Style: No Parent Style
Title: Default vBulletin
Allow User Selection: Yes
Save

Then browse the site using that totally default vbulletin style - do you still have the same problem?

[datoneer]

No. For example if there is only 1 new post. When i read that post and return to forum home page, it still showing (icon) there is unread posts.

Should be this icon
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/

and after i read that post still shows me this

I need to read post twice to be this

Problem fixed

Not sure if i should start a new thread or not, but i have a similar issue..

When i hit "What's New" it shows me like 5 threads that have new posts, but if i am on the site long enough those get marked as read, before i can get to them. (usually if i take my time posting, etc)

I run two sites & it only happens on one of them.

I thought it was a cookie option, but that is set to..
Settings > Cookies and HTTP Header Options > Session Timeout > 900

Any ideas.?
Thanks

What do you have for AdminCP > Settings > Options > General Settings > Thread/Forum Read Marking Type on each of the sites?

Before i get to the issue.. i got this when i tried to log into ACP..
To continue this action, login using the admin account that initiated the action.
then i deleted the /index.php from the url & it was fine... Any idea why this happened.?
Does it mean something, i should be worried about.?
Thanks

And now to the issue at hand... Yup that was it.!!

Database (automatic forum marking)


This one was not
Inactivity/Cookie Based
