It looks like there are/have been some issues with the "new post" icons in Threaded Mode. I am experiencing a problem on my newly upgraded board (6.4.1 --> 7.4.1) with new post indicators too.

EXAMPLE: I saw the newpost icon displayed for two ongoing threads. So I went to each thread and ALL the replies were marked as unread even though they had been read previously. To find the one new reply I had to look through the dates column. After reading the new reply its indicator showed as read but all the other previously read replies still showed as unread.

I noticed this thread and thought the fix suggested there would resolve this problem so I made the change to the 'showflat.inc.php' file but no joy... same o, same o.

Further, I clicked on the global "Mark all read" link on the bottom of the page and revisited those two threads where I discovered the problem and all the replies in both threads were still showing as being unread.

Any hope in fixing this?

PS. Should I undo the fix made to the 'showflat.inc.php' file? grin

This one we finally have tracked down and fixed and will be in the 7.5 release. I'd give the changes needed here, but they are pretty complex and span multiple files, so we need to do it with an actual release.
