On our board many people with no unread PM's see the PM indicator flashing and my inbox has unread PM's but isn ot flashing
This is 7.2

Maybe some of our settings are wrong but do not know where else to look
Is it a cache setting somewhere?

The PM indicator is all based off date and an entry in the database. It sounds like something is definitely out of sync somewhere since you have a variety of different reports.

What I'd do for now is just mark everything as read for everyone, post a note that you're doing this so everyone realizes what's happening, and then see if it starts working properly. You can do that with the following query:

update ubbt_PRIVATE_MESSAGE_USERS set MESSAGE_LAST_READ='1203201245'

Thanks

Did try that command but now all my recent pm's show as unread... the older ones as read... and the PM icon is not flashing (this can not be too good)
What are the last numbers in the command?

I think I need a command to reverse that :-) or mark all PM's as read.

We had a mod on the board to detect multiple ID's and ended up with all kinds of strange PM's after upgrading

Is there a command to delete all PM's older than 30 days?
I think that would solve part of our problem

Is there a way to prune PM's? That would be good to have!
