I'm having the same problem, and more:

*** Post tracking works sometimes, and others it doesn't. It doesn't work with hidden forums.
*** Main Index does not update when posting in an hidden forum. Instance.. a post one month ago in my administration forum still shows on the Main Index as the last post, even though a post made today is in there.
*** UBB code does not work when quoting.

Yeah, I have light bulbs on the main index, but nothing lit up in the forum.

Well, actually only some forums (this forum and one other). Others worked as expected. <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Does the problem resolve itself if you Mark All Read?

Post Tracking doesnt work. I visit this forum today several times. In the overview I see the lightbulb on, I enter the forum, no posting is marked as new but they still contain new replys.

I try the 'mark all read' function but this doesnt solved this.

The tracking function in 6.5.1.1 works better than in 6.5.2

Please review it fast and finaly fix it or go back to 6.4.4. I have 5 month left on my subscription.

Another Bug with Post Tracking:

In the main overview you se a lightbulb on. You enter the forum (this time I see a new posting), use the 'index' to go back (without reading the new posting) and the lightbulb is off now. I reenter the forum and the posting is still marked as new (as it should) but the lightbulb on the index goes not on again.

We track both the last time you visited a forum and the most recent post that you've read in a forum.

IIRC, the lightbulb will go out once you exit the forum, but will go on again if people post to that forum after you're visited it the first time.

This is generally because people tend to read things inside a forum that they've just entered rather than backing out and doing something else. <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Hrm... Mark all read didn't quite fix it for me. It worked for a day or so, but today, I had a lightbulb on with no unread posts inside. Installation forum I think.

When I enter one of my forums and get out again it sometimes marks some others as 'read' too.
