Since installing 5.47d onto a Unix server I am having problems with the "new posts since last visit lightbulb on the front page" and "contains new posts since last visit folder" in the actual forum page.

If I refresh all forums they work properly. After a couple readings or posts, the folder in the forum page with message wont even show up! Then when I go to the front page all light bulbs will be lit up! If I refresh all forums, this will take it back to normal. But once again after a few posts or readings it happens again.

I have done the upgrade process. Deleted the forum index, style, #, last number, last time files in each forum folder. I then refreshed all forum threads and the problem is still occuring. What the heck is going on!?!

What is the URL to your control panel?

sent to you in private

I am not noticing any problems on your board. Which link are you using to go back to your main page after reading posts? Ultimate.cgi?action=intro or Ultimate.cgi?action=intro&BypassCookie=true ? If there are new posts in the forum while you are in it is normal for the light bulbs to light up again.

Ok, maybe thats the problem. To link it back I am using action=intro&BypassCookie=true

When I link back to the main page off of the forum tree in the upper right hand corner all the lightbulbs turn on. But If i do it just as a normal intro I am fine. hmmm

where can i change this.

This doesnt explain however, why there is no "New posts since last visit folder" in the actual forum. Its not even listed.

The link you are using is fine and it is working fine for me. Click the preferences link at the top of your forum and choose to clear your UBB cookies, then try to access your board again.

I have tried it on 4 different computers. There is supposed to be an icon for newly posted threads in the forums right? Right above "An open thread" and "A closed thread"

That is not listed?

The icons are all showing up fine for me. Is this occuring for you in all forums or just some? I suggest you try the clear cookies link in preferences to see if it solves the problem.

Only

An Open Thread ( More than 10 replies).
A Closed thread - no new replies accepted.


show up. I have called two friends and neither of them get that icon either.

That is really strange. At the bottom of your forums, for me it says:

Contains new posts since the last time you logged on ( More than 10 replies) .
No new posts since the last time you logged on ( More than 10 replies).
A Closed thread - no new replies accepted.

Can you give me an URL to a page where this is occuring for you?
