Lynne, it's not because of the style.
I have another forum with the default style and the latest 3.7 update (fresh install, no mods) and still have the same issue. Plus, it is stand-alone and is not integrated into any other software.

I am quoting the whole thread below:

The installation was fine, although I had a problem with new users not being added to the VB stats which Ziki kibndly helped me fix.

However, I still have a problem with forums not being marked read. When someone makes a new post, the forum, thread and post remain marked unread unless I scroll to the bottom and click 'mark all forums read'.
Anyone have any idea what could be causing this.

Before the user stats fix they would mark read if I followed the full path to the post (Open forum, open thread, open post) but now they're not being marked read at all no matter what I do.

Is anyone else using the same versions? Are yours working ok?

It IS marked read but you have to go from the thread to the subforum and then to the main forum. Then it is gonna be marked read.

For example, let's say you are viewing this thread because there are new posts on it. If you want it to be marked as read, you have to scroll up and click "vBulletin Integration" and after you do this, it will be marked as read when you are viewing the index.

Don't know how to fix it. Tried turning some AJAX functions off, but that didn't help.
I thought it's how vB works but maybe it's because of the mod.


Edit: just checked. This happens on this forum, too. So maybe it's how VB works.

Thanks for your reply, at least it reassures me that I'm not the only one, which means I haven't somehow screwed something up. Maybe there is something in the mod that needs looking at.

Edit: You're spot on! If I fillow the breadcrumb right back to the index, it gets marked as read. Surely this must be a bug? I can't see any reason why it would be coded like that.
