Threads still showing as New posts
 

when a user posts in a thread and returns to the post index it shows the thread they just posted in as having new posts. if someone posts in a thread they are the last person in that thread so it shouldn't show as being new.

is there a way to fix this?

it depend if your vB is old version, but if you have an 3.5 and higher, you have a setting in :

>> Admincp >> vBulletin Options >>+Server Settings and Optimization Options >> Update Thread Views Immediately

oh great! thank you!

will that also update the who's online number right away too?

who's online number is set by this option:

>> Admincp >> vBulletin Options >> Cookies and HTTP Header Options >> Session Timeout

the smaller the size, the quicker updated...

any ideas on hot to get this to work with the forums too?

The Session Timeout setting affects all sessions globally on the board.

i'm sorry, i meant to update the boards right away.

like the following but for the forum boards.
>> Admincp >> vBulletin Options >>+Server Settings and Optimization Options >> Update Thread Views Immediately
