Do you have set this?
It sounds as if you have it set to second option.

Did you read this:
It keeps saying that theres one notification (Groups) and no matter if we go to all the groups created (all groups - not just the one we?re members of - just to be sure and do what we can to get rid of the message)) and even chooses "Mark this group read" it keeps showing one notification for groups

The settings are: Database (automatic forum marking) - last option avaible.

As far as I'm aware, there's no mark all groups read functionality, so the users will have to visit them to get them read, yes. That's how it works, I'm afraid.

As to Talk-Pets problem: I really don't know what the issue at your forum is, then. The mod had such an issue before the rewrite of the querying system for build 5, but since then I have not experienced this on any of my forums. Could you recheck if you are really running version 4.0.006 of both plugins that come with this mod?

I have the same problem. Running the latest version of this mod with automatic forum marking. :confused:

What is your setting in AdminCP->Options->Thread/Forum Read Marking Limit?

//Addendum:
Have you changed your read marking options when installing this mod, i.e. was it set to something else than the third option before? I may have been able to reproduce this under that circumstance.

Sounds interesting this mod. Does this / could this also work for Album picture comments?

It does not and could not, since there is no read marking system in place for album comments.

To further debug this, I'd additionally like to know:
- what are your exact settings in AdminCP, especially are you running this for groups the user is a member of, subscribed to, or both?
- are the users who experience this are members of groups only, subscribed to groups only, or both (for the individiual member)?

Limit: 10

Addemdum: Yes, it was option 1.

There may indeed be an issue when read marking is changed that way. Probably this will resolve itself over time, can't think of anything I could do to change that.

Anyway, there seems to be another issue (also one I can do nothing about): there might be a read marking problem if there are more than one page of new discussion entries. I have now had members of my board experience this for the first time, and due to increased traffic in groups (because of the notifications :)) they had more than one page of new entries. Read marking seems to hickup then. This not only was influencing my mod, but also read marking on the main groups page (my groups). The discussion was indeed marked read, but the group was not - systemwide, not only for the notifications. I also was able to reproduce this, albeit both was on 3.8 installations. Since there were no changes to the system, I'm pretty sure this will be true for vB4, too.

Anyway, to resolve this if it happens, my users had to use the groups->individual group page->group tools->mark this group read. This worked. Going throug unread discussions or marking individual discussions read will not, since read marking for discussions and groups runs seperately.
